Abstract

This is a collection of definite integrals involving the logarithmic and polynomial functions in terms of special functions and fundamental constants. All the results in this work are new.

Highlights

  • The Logarithmic transform proposed by Reynolds and Stauffer [1] is used in this work and applied to a form of the Euler integral of the first kind and expressed in terms of the Lerch function

  • The Lerch function being a special function has the fundamental property of analytic continuation, which enables us to widen the range of evaluation for the parameters involved in our definite integral

  • We used our contour integral method to derive the logarithmic transform in terms of the Lerch function

Summary

Introduction

The Logarithmic transform proposed by Reynolds and Stauffer [1] is used in this work and applied to a form of the Euler integral of the first kind and expressed in terms of the Lerch function. The authors used their contour integral method and applied it to a special case of the Beta function in [2] to derive a definite integral and expressed its closed form in terms of a special function. This derived integral formula was used to provide formal derivations in terms of special functions and fundamental constants and summarized in a Table.
