For , expand . Absolute integrability, bounded near zero by a constant times , permits termwise integration. The Gamma function integral then gives
Specify the Hankel contour to run from the negative real axis below the cut towards zero, circle zero counterclockwise with fixed radius , and return above the cut. Take . The circle excludes every nonzero pole of the denominator. For its radius can shrink to zero, and the lower and upper rays give respectively and . By the Gamma reflection formula,
away from integer in that half-plane, with limiting equality at the removable points.
With the circle radius kept fixed, the contour integral is an entire function of : the rays decay exponentially and converge locally uniformly, and the circular part stays away from zero. Multiplication by is analytic for and meromorphic globally. The apparent singularities at positive integers are removable because the integral vanishes there and it already agrees with the original analytic zeta function nearby. Only remains a simple pole. Thus this constructs the meromorphic continuation to the whole plane and an analytic continuation on . Keeping the circular segment is essential when the integral is not locally integrable at zero.
At the two rays cancel, since is single-valued. The Laurent expansion
shows that the residue of is . Since , the residue theorem gives
For nonnegative insect density assume . Substitution of gives , so choose
Then and the porous medium equation is . Its total mass is conserved when the flux vanishes at infinity. For the mass-preserving similarity solution, direct differentiation gives
On the positive support, integrating once with zero boundary flux gives and hence . The semicircle mass integral is , confirming the profile and its symmetric compact support.
The front is at . When , increases towards , so the supremum of the distance reached is
It is approached as , rather than attained at a finite time. If , the nonnegative solution is identically zero and the corresponding distance is zero.
Assume the holonomic constraints have linearly independent gradients, so their common level set is locally a smooth constraint manifold parametrized by . The multiplier form of the Euler-Lagrange equations is
At fixed time . The chain rule for the reduced Lagrangian gives
Conversely, if these reduced equations hold, the Cartesian Euler-Lagrange residual annihilates every tangent direction. Linear independence of the constraint gradients implies that it is a linear combination of those gradients, giving the required Lagrange multipliers. This proves the local equivalence, including time-dependent constraints; singular constraints would need separate analysis.
For the bead, , so
The autonomous conservation of energy gives . If , the motion has a fixed sign and
The integral is the signed arc length divided by the constant speed, and is locally invertible. The special solution is a stationary bead, for which writing time as a function of its unchanging position is not meaningful.
Choose a branch of with and write . The Gauss hypergeometric equation is
Changing to turns this into the same equation with third parameter . Its solution regular at is . Substitution of gives the Gauss hypergeometric equation for with parameters . Thus is also a solution. Their distinct nonintegrally separated characteristic exponents at a regular singular point imply linear independence near , so
This also follows from the exponent transformation in the Papperitz symbol.
Initially assume , so the Euler integral for the hypergeometric function applies. If , taking gives an integral evaluated by the beta function and determines
Indeed and there. To find , instead work in the nonempty parameter region , put and scale the integration variable by . The singular contribution is
The defining integral of the beta function evaluates this integral to . Since and , it determines . Analytic continuation in the parameters then yields the hypergeometric connection formula
The usual power-series definition requires ; exceptional parameters need a separately specified analytic limit. Reciprocal gamma functions make vanishing coefficients at denominator poles meaningful. The branch must remain fixed when continuing in .
Let be position relative to the center of mass, and let the new origin have vector relative to it. The inertia tensor about this origin is
Expanding and using proves the tensor form of the parallel axis theorem:
For a uniform cube of side and mass , centered coordinate integrals give . The displacement to a vertex is up to signs. Using axes along its incident edges gives
The principal moments of inertia are . The first principal axis is the body diagonal through the vertex; every direction perpendicular to it has the repeated moment.
By the argument principle, the number of zeros minus poles, counted with multiplicity, in the fundamental parallelogram is . The logarithmic derivative is periodic with the same lattice, so the integrals over opposite sides cancel. Thus the numbers of zeros and poles are equal.
The Weierstrass elliptic function gives a degree-two map whose fibers identify and . An even elliptic function is constant on these fibers, so it descends to a single-valued function on the sphere. This is meromorphic even at a branch value: near a half-period the involution is , the Laurent series of has only even powers, and has a double zero and provides a local coordinate in . At the image of , gives the same conclusion at infinity. A meromorphic function on the Riemann sphere is a rational function, so .
A meromorphic antiderivative need not be elliptic. Take . Its double poles have zero residue, so integrating on the punctured plane gives a single-valued primitive, since every closed-contour integral is a sum of zero residues. The primitive extends meromorphically over each pole, with local principal part . If were elliptic, it would have precisely one pole modulo the lattice, with residue , contradicting the zero sum of residues in a fundamental parallelogram. This is a nonconstant counterexample satisfying the stated premise; the preceding descent proves that even elliptic functions are rational in the Weierstrass function.
For , use the Fourier transform convention
The integral is absolutely convergent for every , and .
First : square the positive integral and use polar coordinates to obtain . Scaling therefore normalizes the one-dimensional Gaussian function .
Let . Differentiation under the integral is justified by the integrable majorant . Since , integration by parts, with zero endpoint terms, gives . With , this yields . Multiplication of the one-dimensional integrals gives
Applying the same computation with reciprocal scale evaluates its inverse integral:
For , Fubini's theorem gives , which is integrable because is bounded. Its inverse integral is
Absolute integrability of justifies this second application of Fubini's theorem. Thus Fourier inversion holds for every Gaussian convolution, in fact pointwise for this continuous representative.
Define by the inverse integral. Its absolute convergence gives . If , the exponential factors converge pointwise and their differences are bounded by . The dominated convergence theorem proves . Therefore is bounded and continuous and equals almost everywhere.
Assume the zero set is measurable, as is ensured by measurability of . This is an implicit necessary hypothesis: for an arbitrary real function the printed integral and event need not be measurable. Put . Conditional on , the uniform order statistics description makes the probability of no jump in equal to . Averaging over the Poisson distribution gives
Consequently
In particular a measure-zero zero set is almost surely missed, despite possibly containing infinitely many points.
Keep fixed as . On both vertical lines . The right side is traversed upward and the left downward, so their combined contribution is
Set . The integral becomes , where , and . Successive integration by parts, with exponentially vanishing terms at infinity, gives
Hence the leading vertical contribution is . It is exactly zero for integer . These estimates hold for fixed real ; they are not uniform when the order grows with .
Replace the sum by the integral against the density of states and set , :
Therefore
For the given , the integral converges at zero and infinity for every finite .
