For , integrate the base power to obtain . Since , differentiating times givesHere is a nonnegative integer. For justification, keep in a small closed interval bounded below by . The differentiated integrands are dominated by , whose integral becomes under and is finite. The dominated convergence theorem establishes the needed differentiation under the integral sign and the logarithmic moments of a power on the unit interval.
