A cut-off endpoint integral with amplitude (logu)−2 has a logarithmic rather than a Taylor endpoint expansion. Set v=xu and expand (logx−logv)−2 against e−vdv/x. The derivatives of the gamma function at one supply the logarithmic moments: ∫0∞​e−vlogvdv=−γE​ and ∫0∞​e−v(logv)2dv=γE2​+π2/6. Other peaks or singularities must be treated separately before applying this endpoint result to a whole integral.
