The discussion revolves around the manipulation of double integrals, specifically how to transition from one integral expression to another. Participants explore the conditions under which certain terms can be factored out and the order of integration, with a focus on the implications of variables denoted with primes and double primes.
Participants express differing views on the clarity and correctness of the integral manipulation, with no consensus reached on the best approach or notation to use.
There are unresolved aspects regarding the assumptions made about the integrals and the specific conditions under which the manipulations are valid. The discussion does not clarify the implications of these assumptions on the overall argument.
There's something wrong. Shouldn't it bekuruman said:There is nothing specific about this. Just put everything that depends on double prime under the integral sign that has ##dV''## and everything that depends only on prime under the integral sign that has ##dV'##. You do the double prime integral first and get a function of ##r'## and ##r##. Next you do the integral over primed variables and you get a function of ##r## only which will be an expression for ##Z(r)##.
It's like $$\int \int f(x,y)~g(x)~dx~dy=\int g(y)dy\int f(x,y)dx$$except with primes and double primes instead of ##x## and ##y##.
