    Dx Integrate
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on integrating the equation f=exp(m*x) dx, where x is a vector of variables [x1, x2]. Participants seek clarification on the notation, particularly how to interpret e^{m*x} when x is a vector. It's noted that for the integral to be valid, e to a vector power must also be defined as a vector. The conversation highlights the need for more context regarding the variables and the integration process, suggesting that the question may be better suited for a specialized forum. Overall, the integration of this function requires careful consideration of the definitions involved.

Dear

I am trying to integrate the following equation

f=exp(m*x) dx

where x =[x1 , x2] is a vector of variable could you help me please to find the solution when I would like to integrate like this kind of equations.

help appreciated

Best Regards

So you want to find
\int e^{m \vec x} \, \mathrm d\vec x
right?

Can you first explain what that notation means?
Usually \mathrm d\vec x = dx_1 \, \mathrm dx_2 but what is e^{m \vec x} in this case?

(If everything is properly defined, you'd expect something like m e^{m \vec x} of course)
 


the x=[x1 x2] is array of variables where x1 and x2 are complex and m is
a constant. so my question how could I integrate the function over an array dx and should I have one or two complex integral ,I think so two may be because we have two variable in the array

thanks for the help
 


Yes, we understood that. CompuChip's question was "what does e^{m[x1, x2]} mean?" How are you defining e to a vector power? In order for the integral to make sense, e to a vector power, here, must be a vector. Can you give more context for the problem.

(And you would expect something like e^{m\vec{x}} divided by m, not multiplied by m.)
 


well i guess the question should be moved to the right forum
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
Thread 'Imaginary Pythagoras'
I posted this in the Lame Math thread, but it's got me thinking. Is there any validity to this? Or is it really just a mathematical trick? Naively, I see that i2 + plus 12 does equal zero2. But does this have a meaning? I know one can treat the imaginary number line as just another axis like the reals, but does that mean this does represent a triangle in the complex plane with a hypotenuse of length zero? Ibix offered a rendering of the diagram using what I assume is matrix* notation...
