Order of differentiation and integration

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the identity involving differentiation and integration, specifically the expression \(\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\int_{-\infty}^\infty\int_0^x f(s,t) dsdt\) and its equivalence to \(\int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x,t)dt\). Participants confirm that the identity appears correct, barring any convergence issues. The conversation highlights the importance of specifying the function \(f(s,t)\) to fully assess the validity of the identity.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of partial differentiation
  • Familiarity with double integrals
  • Knowledge of convergence criteria in integration
  • Basic concepts of multivariable calculus
NEXT STEPS

I guess the following identity isn't right. Can anyone tell me what the LHS is really equal to?
\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\int_{-\infty}^\infty\int_0^x f(s,t) dsdt = \int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x,t)dt

Hi toptrial! :smile:

Looks ok to me (unless there's a convergence difficulty). :confused:

Do you have a particular f(s,t) in mind?
