What does the following represent: ex2dx=π\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{-x^2} \,dx = \sqrt{\pi}


The expression ex2dx=π\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{-x^2} \,dx = \sqrt{\pi} represents the integral of the Gaussian or normal distribution function over the entire real line, from negative infinity to positive infinity.

This integral is known as the "Gaussian integral" or the "bell curve integral," and it arises in various fields, including probability theory, statistical mechanics, and quantum mechanics.

The integrand ex2e^{-x^2} is the Gaussian function, which is a bell-shaped curve that is symmetric about the y-axis and has a maximum value of 1 at x = 0. The integral calculates the total area under this curve from negative infinity to positive infinity.

The result of this integral is π\sqrt{\pi}, which is approximately equal to 1.772453851. This value has significant importance in various areas of mathematics and physics.

In probability theory, the Gaussian integral represents the total probability density over the entire real line for a normal distribution with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. This integral is often used to calculate probabilities and statistical properties of normally distributed random variables.

In physics, the Gaussian integral appears in various contexts, such as the partition function in statistical mechanics and the wave functions in quantum mechanics.

The evaluation of this integral involves advanced techniques from calculus, such as the use of substitutions, symmetry properties, and special functions like the gamma function or error functions.
