How do I show that
where k is a nongegative integer and (s)_k:=s(s+1)\cdots (s+k-1) is the Pochammer symbol (aka the rising factorial) ?
If it helps, I know (and have previously proven) that
where \Delta is the forward difference operator.
0\leq \Re (s) +k\Rightarrow\left| (s)_k \int_0^1\cdots\int_0^1 (n+x_1+\cdots +x_k)^{-s-k}\, dx_1\cdots\, dx_k \right| \leq |(s)_k|n^{-\Re (s) -k}
where k is a nongegative integer and (s)_k:=s(s+1)\cdots (s+k-1) is the Pochammer symbol (aka the rising factorial) ?
If it helps, I know (and have previously proven) that
(s)_k\int_0^1\cdots\int_0^1 (n+x_1+\cdots +x_k)^{-s-k}\, dx_1\cdots\, dx_k = \sum_{m=0}^{k}(-1)^{m} \left(\begin{array}{c}k\\m\end{array}\right) (n+m)^{-s} =: \Delta ^k (n^{-s})
where \Delta is the forward difference operator.
