Integral over standard n-simplex

[winterfors]

Given a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplex#The_standard_simplex" in $\mathbb{R}^n$:
$$\Omega = \left\{ {{\textbf{y}}:\,\,\,\,{y_i} \ge 0,\,\,\,\,1 = \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{y_i}} } \right\}$$
where n is a positive integer, and a vector $\textbf{a}$ with n elements $a_i>1$,

I need to evaluate the integral

(1) $$G({\textbf{a}},m,s,t) = \int\limits_{\textbf{y} \in \Omega } {{{\left( {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^m {{y_i}} } \right)}^s}{{\left( {\sum\limits_{i = m}^n {{y_i}} } \right)}^t}\left( {\prod\limits_{i = 1}^n {{y_i}^{{a_i} - 1}} } \right)dy}$$

where t and s are real non-negative numbers, and m is an integer between 1 and n. The integral is taken over the standard n-1 simplex $\Omega$ with respect to $dy = dy_1 dy_2...dy_n$.



Similar integrals that have well-known solutions are:

(2) $$\int\limits_{y \in \Omega } {\prod\limits_{i = 1}^n {{y_i}^{{a_i} - 1}} dy} = \frac{{\prod\limits_{i = 1}^n {\Gamma ({a_i})} }}{{\Gamma \left( {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{a_i}} } \right)}}$$

and

(3) $$\int\limits_{y \in \Omega } {{{\left( {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^m {{y_i}} } \right)}^s}{{\left( {\sum\limits_{i = m + 1}^n {{y_i}} } \right)}^t}\left( {\prod\limits_{i = 1}^n {{y_i}^{{a_i} - 1}} } \right)dy} = \frac{{\prod\limits_{i = 1}^n {\Gamma ({a_i})} }}{{\Gamma \left( {s + t + \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{a_i}} } \right)}}\frac{{\Gamma \left( {s + \sum\limits_{i = 1}^m {{a_i}} } \right)}}{{\Gamma \left( {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^m {{a_i}} } \right)}}\frac{{\Gamma \left( {t + \sum\limits_{i = m + 1}^n {{a_i}} } \right)}}{{\Gamma \left( {\sum\limits_{i = m + 1}^n {{a_i}} } \right)}}$$

where $\Gamma$ is the Gamma function.

Note that the only difference between (1) and (3) is that the second sum in (3) goes from m+1 to n instead of from m to n. This difference is however important, surely making the solution to (1) more complicated than that of (3).

If it is of any help, I am in particular interested in $\partial^2/\partial s \partial t$ of $\ln \left( {G({\bf{a}},m,s,t)} \right)$ when both t and s equal zero, that is, I want to calculate

$${{{\left. {\frac{\partial }{{\partial s}}} \right|}_{s = 0}}{{\left. {\frac{\partial }{{\partial t}}} \right|}_{t = 0}}\ln \left( {G({\bf{a}},m,s,t)} \right)}$$
