Hi guys,

I encountered it many times while reading some paper and textbook, most of them just quote the final result or some results from elsewhere to calculate the one in that context.

So I'm not having a general idea how to do this, especially this one

\int_k^\inf \frac{z^2\sqrt{z^2-k^2}}{e^z+1}dz

I really appreciate any help. Thank you!

My apology but I'm a little bit confused about where to post this topic. I'm sorry.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
