What is the definition of the beta function?
What is the definition of the beta function?
- B(z1, z2) = ∫ 0 1 t^{z1}(1-t)^{z2} dt
- B(z1, z2) = ∫ 0 1 t^{z1-1}(1-t)^{z2} dt
- B(z1, z2) = ∫ 0 1 t^{z1}(1-t)^{z2-1} dt
- B(z1, z2) = ∫ 0 1 t^{z1-1}(1-t)^{z2-1} dt (correct)

What is a key property of the beta function?
What is a key property of the beta function?
- Symmetry: B(z1, z2) = B(z2, z1) (correct)
- Transitivity: B(z1, z2) = B(z1, z3)
- Asymmetry: B(z1, z2) ≠B(z2, z1)
- Reflexivity: B(z1, z1) = 1
