Euler integral


In mathematics, there are two types of Euler integral:

  1. The Euler integral of the first kind is the beta function \mathrm{\Beta}(z_1,z_2) = \int_0^1t^{z_1-1}(1-t)^{z_2-1},dt = \frac{\Gamma(z_1)\Gamma(z_2)}{\Gamma(z_1+z_2)}
  2. The Euler integral of the second kind is the gamma function \Gamma(z) = \int_0^\infty t^{z-1},\mathrm e^{-t},dt

For positive integers m and n, the two integrals can be expressed in terms of factorials and binomial coefficients: \Beta(n,m) = \frac{(n-1)!(m-1)!}{(n+m-1)! } = \frac{n+m}{nm \binom{n+m}{n}} = \left( \frac{1}{n} + \frac{1}{m} \right) \frac{1}{\binom{n+m}{n}} \Gamma(n) = (n-1)!
