Is it Possible to show this? Beta function

[chamilka]

Hi everyone!
I got two versions of one particular function and now I need to show those two versions are equivalent.
For that I need to show the follwing, View attachment 223

Is it possible to show this by using the properties of Beta functions, Gaussian hypergeometric function etc?

Thanks in advance!

Hi chamilka, :)

I got the intuition of solving this problem from your http://www.mathhelpboards.com/threads/1358-Chamilka-s-Question-from-Math-Help-Forum. Consider the integral, \(\displaystyle\int_{0}^{1}x^{y+\alpha-1}(1-x)^{(n+\beta-y)-1}\,dx\).

\begin{eqnarray}

\int_{0}^{1}x^{y+\alpha-1}(1-x)^{(n+\beta-y)-1}\,dx&=&\int_{0}^{1}x^{y+\alpha-1}(1-x)^{n-y}(1-x)^{\beta-1}\,dx\\

&=&\int_{0}^{1}x^{y+\alpha-1}(1-x)^{n-y}\sum_{i=0}^{\infty} \; {\beta-1\choose i}\;(-x)^{i}\,dx

\end{eqnarray}

Proceed with the same method I have gone through in http://www.mathhelpboards.com/threads/1358-Chamilka-s-Question-from-Math-Help-Forum?p=6487&viewfull=1#post6487, and you will finally get,

\[\int_{0}^{1}x^{y+\alpha-1}(1-x)^{(n+\beta-y)-1}\,dx=\sum_{i=0}^{\infty}(-1)^{i}{\beta-1\choose i}B(y+\alpha+i,\,n-y+1)~~~~~~~~~~~(1)\]

provided, \(Re(y+\alpha+i)>0\mbox{ and }Re(n-y+1)>0\).

Also by the definition of the Beta function, if \(Re(y+\alpha)>0\mbox{ and }Re(n+\beta-y)>0\) we have,

\[\int_{0}^{1}x^{y+\alpha-1}(1-x)^{(n+\beta-y)-1}\,dx=B(y+\alpha,\,n+\beta-y)~~~~~~~(2)\]

From (1) and (2) we get,

\[B(y+\alpha,\,n+\beta-y)=\sum_{i=0}^{\infty}(-1)^{i}{\beta-1\choose i}B(y+\alpha+i,\,n-y+1)\]

provided, \(Re(y+\alpha)>0,\,Re(n-y+1)>0\mbox{ and }Re(n+\beta-y)>0\)

Kind Regards,
Sudharaka.

Hi chamilka! Welcome to MHB! :)

I think you should be able to send PM's now so I've removed your replies to Sudharaka from public view. I can copy the posts to you through PM if you would like. The minimum post counts can be annoying I know, but they stop others from doing a lot of things that waste MHB's time so they are there for a reason. You should be able to use most of the functionality of the site already and if not only need a couple more posts. Let me know if I can help you in any way.

Jameson

Thank you Jameson for your kind support. I am very lucky to be a mart of Math Help boards.
