Sophomore’s dream


The integral

I:=01xx𝑑x(1)

may be expanded to a rapidly converging series as follows.

Changing the integrand to a power of e and using the power seriesMathworldPlanetmath expansion of theexponential functionDlmfDlmfMathworldPlanetmath gives us

I=01exlnx𝑑x=01n=0(xlnx)nn!dx.(2)

Here the series is uniformly convergent on [0,1] and may beintegrated termwise:

I=n=001xn(lnx)nn!𝑑x.(3)

The last equation of the parent entry (http://planetmath.org/ExampleOfDifferentiationUnderIntegralSign)then gives in the case m=n from (3) the result

I=n=0(-1)n(n+1)n+1,(4)

i.e.,

01xxdx= 1-122+133-144+-(5)

Cf. the functionMathworldPlanetmath xx (http://planetmath.org/FunctionXX).

Since the series (5) satisfies the conditions ofLeibniz’ theorem for alternating seriesMathworldPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/LeibnizEstimateForAlternatingSeries),one may easily estimate the error made when a partial sum of (5) is used for the exact value of the integralI.  If one for example takes for I the sum of nine firstterms, the first omitted term is -11010; thus theerror is negative and its absolute valueMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath less than 10-10.
