  • Cleo's most famous integral on math stack exchange. It definitely looks like the final boss of integration and the solution development involves a few of my favorite tools so the integration was a wonderful journey indeed.

    FUNNY CORRECTION: In the factorisation around the 7:50 mark, the roots of the equation are actually (1+i)/2 and (1-i)/2. The reason it doesn't matter and the result is unaffected is because instead of writing the factorisation as (a-x)(b-x), I went for (1-ax)(1-bx) which essentially means I "factored" out a and b leaving behihd their reciprocals as coefficients of x. And the reciprocals of the roots i found are exactly 1-i and 1+i respectively 😂😂😂. Huge shoutout to my buddy on Instagram Naman Sanghi for pointing this out. Thanks mate.

      Worth mentioning that the wrong factoring made you lost a factor of a half, but since you lost this factor for both the numerator and the denominator, this result is unchanged.
      After all the errors, they still cancel out

    24:47 For any analytic function that is real on the real axis, we have f(z*) = f(z)*, where asterisk means complex conjugate. This is because the coefficients of the power series are real.

    This time you really blew me out! I've got scratch marks on my head now... :D I was like OK, let's see what infinite series we will introduce or when will the Gamma, Beta pop up... The complex world was a pleasant surprise...
    Especially the introduction of the I(α) was genius! It really needs a good eye and long experience to be able to come up with a "reverse engineered" solution like that. I will have to go over this integral multiple times to be able to really digest and appropriate it. I wonder what other approaches there may be. It would be VERY interesting if you come up with a different method and make a video on it when you find the time... In any case, a great THANKS for this. I really enjoyed it.
