§4.38(i) Power Series

ⓘ

Keywords:: inverse hyperbolic functions, power series
Notes:: For (4.38.1) expand $(1+z^{2})^{-1/2}$ by the binomial theorem and integrate term by term. For (4.38.2), write $(1+z^{2})^{-1/2}=z^{-1}(1+(1/z^{2}))^{-1/2}$ , $\Re z>0$ , and then expand and integrate. For the constant of integration note that for large $z$ , $\operatorname{arcsinh}z$ behaves like $\ln\left(2z\right)$ and the constant is $\ln 2$ . (4.38.3) is proved similarly. (4.38.4)–(4.38.7) follow from the corresponding series for inverse trigonometric functions in §4.24.

The above equations are interpreted in the sense that every value of the left-hand side is a value of the right-hand side and vice-versa. All square roots have either possible value.
