Double Integral

A double integral is a two-fold multiple integral.

Examples of definite double integrals evaluating to simple constants include

int_0^1int_0^1(dxdy)/(1-x^2y^2)=1/8pi^2
(1)
int_0^1int_0^1(dxdy)/(1-xy)=1/6pi^2
(2)
int_(-1)^1int_(-1)^1(dxdy)/(sqrt(1+x^2+y^2))=4ln(2+sqrt(3))-2/3pi
(3)
int_0^1int_0^1(dxdy)/((x+y)sqrt((1-x)(1-y)))=4K,
(4)

where K is Catalan's constant (Borwein et al. 2004, pp. 48-49), and

int_0^1int_0^1(x-1)/((1-xy)ln(xy))dxdy=gamma,
(5)

where gamma is the Euler-Mascheroni constant (Sondow 2003, 2005; Borwein et al. 2004, pp. 48-49).
