Evaluating indefinite integral with any hint or solution












2














How can I evaluate this indefinite integral.



$$
intfrac{dx}{xsqrt{x^3+x+1}}
$$



any hit would be appreciated.

    It does seem to have a nice looking closed-form. Where is this from?

This "reduces" to an incomplete elliptic integral.
Somewhat more generally,



$$ int dfrac{dx}{x sqrt{(x-a)(x-b)(x-c)}} = {frac {pm 2,i}{a sqrt {a-c}}{it EllipticPi} left( {frac {sqrt {a-x}}{sqrt {a-b}}},{frac {a-b}{a}},{frac {sqrt {a-b}}{sqrt {a-c}}}
right) }$$



(using Maple's notation). In your case you want to take $a,b,c$ to be the three roots of $x^3+x+1$ (one real root approximately $-0.682327803828019$, two complex roots approximately $0.341163901914009693 pm 1.16154139999725192,i$).
