Help needed in proving a integral equation

In summary, the conversation is about simplifying a double integral involving exponential and binomial terms. The suggested method is to use the binomial theorem on one of the variables and then integrate the resulting separable integrals. However, there is a discrepancy in the resulting integral as it contains an extra variable.

Homework Statement


Help needed in simplifying this one
$$\left[\int\limits_0^{Inf} {\int\limits_0^{Inf} {{e^{ - \alpha X - \beta Y}} \cdot F(X + Y + c)} } \cdot {X^d} \cdot {Y^e} \cdot dX \cdot dY\right]$$ is equal to

$$\left[\sum\limits_{i = 0}^d {d{C_k} \cdot } {( - 1)^{d - i}} \cdot \left[ {\left( {\frac{{factorial(d + e - i)}}{{{{(\beta - \alpha )}^{d + e - i + 1}}}} \cdot \{ \int\limits_0^{Inf} {{\operatorname{e} ^{\alpha t}} \cdot F(t + c) \cdot {t^i} \cdot dt)} \} } \right) - \left( {\sum\limits_{j = 0}^{d + e - i} {\frac{{S(d + e - i,j - 1)}}{{{{(\beta - \alpha )}^{j + 1}}}}} \cdot \{ \int\limits_0^{Inf} {{\operatorname{e} ^{\beta t}} \cdot F(t + c) \cdot {t^{d + e - j}} \cdot dt)} \} } \right)} \right]\right]$$

Homework Equations



alpha,beta are constants; d & e are non negative integers, X & Y are variables
dCk is binomial coefficient. S(x1,x2)=x1*(x1-1)*...(x1-x2) and S(x1,x2)=1 when x2<0. F is a even function

The Attempt at a Solution



put X+Y=V and Y=U. All I need is help in start up -JUST FIRST 2-3 steps, from there I can solve on my own. After taking X+Y=V and Y=U , how many integrals will come?
Is this the right way to start
$$\left[\int\limits_0^{Inf} {\int\limits_U^{Inf} {{e^{ - \alpha (V - U) - \beta (U)}} \cdot F(V + c) \cdot } } {(V - U)^d} \cdot {U^e} \cdot dV \cdot dU\right]$$ ?
There is something wrong in
$$\left[\int\limits_0^{Inf} {\int\limits_U^{Inf} {( - )dV \cdot dU} } \right]$$

I started simplifying from
$$\left[\int\limits_0^{Inf} {\int\limits_U^{Inf} {{e^{ - \alpha (V - U) - \beta (U)}} \cdot F(V + c) \cdot } } {(V - U)^d} \cdot {U^e} \cdot dV \cdot dU\right]$$ . Finally I coudn't reach right hand side of the equation. There is something wrong in
$$\left[\int\limits_0^{Inf} {\int\limits_U^{Inf} {( - )dV \cdot dU} } \right]$$

yes :smile:

now use the binomial theorem on the (V - U)d,

then your ∫∫ is the sum of lots of separable ∫∫, of the form

∫∫ f(U)g(V) dUdV = {∫ f(U) dU} {∫ g(V) dV} :wink:

I did in the way u suggested, but I was left out with a 'U' variable. but the answer doesnot contain 'U' .

yes, but you can integrate the {∫ f(U) dU} (which of course eliminates U), since that function f is known :wink:
