13.73] INFINITE INTEGRALS 445 Now, T being positive, we have (2U + 7i) exp {- 2X (U+ 7)2} e2i sinh Tsinh U d 00 = 2 f0 (v + n7r) exp {- 2X (v + 7r)2} -2xsinh Tcoshvdv 00 and, since ve-2xsinhTcoshv is an odd function of v, it may be proved that the last integral is ro 27i e-2x sinh Tcosh dv + 0 (X), _ 00 where the constant implied in the symbol 0 (X) is a function of T such that its integral with respect to T from 0 to o is convergent. In like manner, f (2 U + 77t) exp {- 2X (U 4+ 1 7r)2} e-2i sinh Tsinh U d U j -00 00 = J 2v exp (- 2Xv2) e-2xsinh Tcoshv d = 0. - co Hence it follows that J^(X) I Y(x ) aJ ( x) _2 e T-2xsinh cosh v-2vTdvdT av a - jJ e 87 jV rrjo J -oo =- oK0 (2x sinh T) e-2T dT..7ro The extension to the case in which the argument of the Bessel functions is complex with a positive real part is made as in (1). It should be mentioned that formula (2) is of importance in the discussion of descriptive properties of zeros of Bessel functions. The reader may find it interesting to prove that v[() - a Y ( ) a (Z) 2Z2[V (Z) av > () Yv (z) ]-(- (Z) aY.
