Laplace transfom of $\int_t^{\infty} \frac{f(u)}{u}du$

94 Views Asked by At

I want to know the Laplace transform of the function: $\mathcal{L} \int_t^{\infty} \frac{f(u)}{u}du$.

I tried the following method

$\int_0^{\infty} e^{-ts}\int_t^{\infty} \frac{f(u)}{u}du dt=\int_0^{\infty} (\frac{e^{-ts}}{-s})'\int_t^{\infty} \frac{f(u)}{u}du dt =-\frac{1}{s}\int_0^{\infty}e^{-ts}\frac{f(t)}{t} dt$.

Using the relationship

$\int_0^{\infty}e^{-ts}\frac{f(t)}{t} dt = \int_s^{\infty}\mathcal{L}f(t)dt$

I obtained the following final expression:

$-\frac{1}{s}\int_s^{\infty}\mathcal{L}f(t)dt$

But it may be wrong because it is different from the expression in the comment of Find the inverse Laplace transform of $f(t) = \int_t^\infty \frac{e^{ - u}}{u}du$, which is

$\mathcal{L}\int_t^{\infty} \frac{f(u)}{u}du = \frac{1}{s}\int_0^{s}\mathcal{L}f(t)dt$

I'm not sure if the following holds

$-\frac{1}{s}\int_s^{\infty}\mathcal{L}f(t)dt = \frac{1}{s}\int_0^{s}\mathcal{L}f(t)dt$

I'm very grateful if you could show me the derivation.
