Guys i think he's terribly sorry about that

[@Sugarman96]

4:21 I feel like I've said this before, but whatever. To me, this just screams Fourier transform. With the cosine, you have the real part of the inverse Fourier transform evaluated at t=1, with the original function being e^-2|t|, with its transform being 4/(w^2+4). By playing with the constants to make it for with the inverse Fourier transform, you get pi/2 time the original function at t=1, which is the result you got to via contouring.

I see everyone proposed so many ways to reach the result but I think contour integration remains one of the best tools for solving hard integrals.

Hard integrals: (exist) Contour integration: GO BACK TO THE SHADOWS! FLAME OF UDÛN!!!

For the hw I find pi/(sqrt(2)*exp(sqrt(2))

[@krisbrandenberger544]

Yes. The process is pretty much the same as in the problem given in the video. Completing the square in the denominator and applying the same u-sub will result in u^2+4.

[@balubaluhehe2002]

could you do a video on how and why contour integration and the residue theorem works?

[@maxvangulik1988]

i would like to see such a video. I'm still unclear on what a laurent series is.

[@MikeB-q8v]

Ingenious as always!

[@danielespinosa869]

Answer 13:21 is pi/((sqrt(2)*e^(sqrt(2)))

[@DD-ce4nd]

A nice generalisation is: int_0^infty cos(1-1/x) \(x+1/x)^n dx becomes 2F0( {n/2,1-n/2},{}, -1/4) / (2^n*( n/2-1)!) for n>0 and an even integer. Also, int_0^infty sin(1-1/x) \(x+1/x)^n dx becomes 2F0( {n/2-1/2,3/2-n/2},{}, -1/4) / (2^n*( n/2-1/2)!) for n > 0 and an odd integer. (both equations multiplied by Pi/e^2)

[@ben_adel3437]

After the cos(x)/x^2+4 part i stopped understanding what's happening but someday i do wanna learn about the integral for complex functions

[@BoringExtrovert]

How exactly does one choose the contour? Every time I see such integrals, I don’t understand why such a contour is chosen

[@Khamul7618]

You are free to choose the most convenient one. Usually you choose the contour so that it contains a single pole. And having convenient parametrization is also nice -- arcs are easily parametrized as z=rho e^(i phi) which simplifies estimation of the integral (you want any additional integrals equal zero). In fact, there is no simple answer to your question. You just try one contour and if it doesn't help you evaluate your integral you try another one. The more experience you have, the more often your guesses will be correct. Integrals are always just like this.

[@yodastar1237]

Because Contour usually for this case considers the geometry of the integral like in previous problem. So like in this form you see, you will get an answer that involve pi or e or something like that due to the radians and symmetry.

[@ahmedlutfi4894]

What is the reason behind reversing the integral interval when changing the realm of x 1/x?

[@qetzing]

Regarding 0:42, what exactly is the difference between a transformation as shown here and a regular substitution with u?

[@maths_505]

No difference whatsoever

[@MrWael1970]

Thanks for smart tricks for solving such integrals. It should be possible to be solved in real domain rather than contour integration.

Gorgeous way to solve! Hail Kamal, thundermind of Lothlorien!!. Kamal, I think that I noticed in the first transformation from x to 1/x, you have the negative of the limit switch, another from the cos function symmetry, another from the differential element dx, is that correct?

[@maths_505]

The cos function is even so we don't get a negative from there my friend.
