For real , the multiplier has modulus one andThe triangle inequality applied to the integral therefore givesThe hypotheses and ensure endpoint convergence. Differentiation in is justified on compact parameter intervals by integrable bounds with an additional factor . Differentiating both the exponential multiplier and the power of makes the logarithmic denominator cancel:Here the scaled Gamma function integral is obtained by . Integrating this derivative from zero to yieldsThe same modulus bound also gives the useful parameter-shift remainder bound for a logarithmic Laplace integralbecause the denominator magnitude is at least .
