Reduction Formulae are recursive mathematical expressions that help evaluate integrals by reducing them to simpler forms, often in terms of lower powers or smaller expressions.

A reduction formula is typically derived using integration by parts or recursion techniques and is useful when dealing with integrals involving powers of trigonometric, exponential, or polynomial functions.

The Beta function, denoted as B(m,n)B(m, n)B(m,n), is a special function.

It is a symmetric function, meaning:

B(m,n)=B(n,m).B(m, n) = B(n, m).B(m,n)=B(n,m).

Applications of Beta Function

  • Used in probability theory (Beta distribution).

  • Appears in combinatorics and statistics.

  • Integral evaluations in physics and engineering.

    The Gamma function, denoted as Γ(n)\Gamma(n)Γ(n), is a fundamental function in mathematics that generalizes the factorial function to non-integer values.

    Applications of the Gamma Function

    • Probability & Statistics: Defines the Gamma and Beta distributions.

    • Physics & Engineering: Used in quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and wave functions.

    • Complex Analysis: Extends factorials to the complex plane.

      Relation Between Beta and Gamma Functions

      The Beta function and Gamma function are closely related through the following fundamental identity:

      B(m,n)=Γ(m)Γ(n)Γ(m+n)B(m, n) = \frac{\Gamma(m) \Gamma(n)}{\Gamma(m+n)}B(m,n)=Γ(m+n)Γ(m)Γ(n)​
