Uniform convergence of improper integral 6

135 Views Asked by At

Does integral $I$ converges uniformly on sets $E_1, E_2$, where $$ I = \int\limits_0^{+\infty} \frac {\ln^{\alpha} x}{x} \sin x \, \text{d} x, \\ E_1 = [0,1], E_2 =[1, +\infty) \,? $$ And may you please share some ideas concerning uniform convergence of integrals? Feeling lack of knowledge there.

My wild guess is that the given integral has to be interpreted in the following way: $$ \int_{0}^{+\infty}\left(\log x\right)^{\alpha}\frac{\sin x}{x}\,dx = \left.\frac{d}{db^{\alpha}}\int_{0}^{+\infty}\frac{x^b \sin(x)}{x}\,dx\right|_{b=0^+} = \left.\frac{d}{db^\alpha}\Gamma(b)\sin(\pi b/2)\right|_{b=0^+}$$ where $\frac{d}{db^\alpha}$, if needed, has to be interpreted as a fractional derivative operator.
The radius of convergence of the Taylor series of $\Gamma(b)\sin(\pi b/2)$ at the origin is $1$, since the function $\Gamma(z)$ function has simple poles at $z=0$ and $z=1$, but the pole at the origin is compensated by the sine term. In particular the wanted integral behaves like $(\alpha+1)!$, that is a bounded function on $(0,1)$ and an unbounded function over $(1,+\infty)$.
