You just made my day...
Coincidally, this week I told my students
Hi Simon, The integral is sort of complicated. First integrate
f(r) = r^5*(1-r^2)/((1-2*a*r+r^2)*(1-2*b*r+r^2)) over [0,1]. Sage asked
for some assumptions and so I gave it these: assume( -1 < a < 1) assume(
-1 < b < 1) assume(a^2-1 <0) assume(b^2-1 <0) With these assumptions,
this first integr
I can not reproduce (or I misunderstood your instructions). Please
provide a *complete* list of commands that lead to the problem. Here
is what I got
sage: a = SR.var('a')
sage: b = SR.var('b')
sage: f(r) = r^5*(1-r^2)/((1-2*a*r+r^2)*(1-2*b*r+r^2))
sage: assume( -1 < a < 1)
sage:
