I have the following double integral: $\int\limits_0^x {\int\limits_0^y {{e^{ - {K_1}(u + v)}}{I_0}\left( {2{K_1}\sqrt {uv} } \right)dudv} }$ where $K_1$ is a constant. Do you have any ideas of getting a closed form for this integral? Thank you very much.

  • $\begingroup$ What is the function $I_0$? You can get rid of the constant by substitution. $\endgroup$ Jan 10, 2013 at 9:36

I found the solution from a reference paper, which is: A Double Integral Containing the Modified Bessel Function: Asymptotics and Computation.

To Jochen Wengenroth, my guess is I_{0} is a modified Bessel function. To the OP. I have no expertise when it comes to this, but if it is a Bessel function, converting it to some polar form of some kind might help.
