Inhaltsangabe

In its second installment, Innovative Integrals and Their Applications II explores multidimensional integral identities, unveiling powerful techniques for attacking otherwise intractable integrals, thus demanding ingenuity and novel approaches. This volume focuses on novel approaches for evaluating definite integrals, with the aid of tools such as Mathematica as a means of obtaining useful results. Building upon the previous methodologies, this volume introduces additional concepts such as interchanging the order of integration, permutation symmetry, and the use of pairs of Laplace transforms and Fourier transforms, offering readers a comprehensive array of integral identities. The content further elucidates the techniques of permutation symmetry and extends the multivariate substitution approach to integrals with finite limits of integration. These insights culminate in a collection of integral identities involving gamma functions, incomplete beta functions, Bessel functions, polylogarithms, and the Meijer G-function. Additionally, readers will encounter applications of error functions, inverse error functions, hypergeometric functions, the Lambert W-function, elliptic integrals, Jacobi elliptic functions, and the Riemann zeta function, among many others, with a focus on their relevance in various scientific disciplines and cutting-edge technologies. Each chapter in this volume concludes with many interesting exercises for the reader to practice.

A key tenet is that such approaches work best when applied to integrals having certain characteristics as a starting point. Most integrals, if used as a starting point, lead to no result at all, or lead to a known result.  However, there is a special class of integrals (i.e., innovative integrals), which, if used as a starting point for such approaches, lead to new and useful results, and can also enable the reader to generate other new results that do not appear in the book.

The intended readership includes science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) undergraduates and graduates, as well as STEM researchers and the community of engineers, scientists, and physicists; most of these potential readers have experienced the importance and/or the applications of integration from finding areas, volumes, lengths, and velocities to more advanced applications. The pedagogical approach of the exposition empowers students to comprehend and efficiently wield multidimensional integrals from their foundations, fostering a deeper understanding of advanced mathematical concepts.

 

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Anthony A. Ruffa served for many years as the Director of Research at the Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC), Newport, RI, USA. He was responsible for managing the development and execution of a portfolio of Office of Naval Research (ONR) funded projects that forms the foundation of NUWC's science and technology (S&T) competency, and worked with the Navy research community to identify emerging technologies and assess the maturity and risks of current technologies. Dr. Ruffa has published research papers in many diverse areas of mathematics and physics (including the original paper on the generalized method of exhaustion that forms the basis of this monograph), and holds 76 U.S. Patents.

Bourama Toni is a Full Professor of Mathematics and Chair of the Department of Mathematics at Howard University, Washington, DC, USA; and Founder and Editor of the Springer-published STEAM-H series, with truly an interdisciplinary profile. Dr. Toni's research interests are primarily in Differential and Nonlinear Analysis and related topics to include Dynamical Systems, Non-Archimedean Analysis, Game Theory, Feedback Loops Analysis, and their applications to biosciences, behavioral sciences and naval engineering, with an excellent track-record of quality published research papers including contributed volumes with Springer.
