Calculate the integral of the following function over the sphere in $mathbb{R}^4$












1












$begingroup$



Calculate the integral of $f(x,y,w,z) = |y||z|^2$ over $S={(x,y,w,z)|x^2+y^2+z^2+w^2=1}$, i.e. calculate: $int_S|y||z|^2dsigma_3$.




My attempt -



I'll define a parameterization as follows - $phi(r,alpha,beta)=(rcos(alpha),rsin(alpha),rcos(beta),rsin(beta))$.



Using the following formula: $int_Mf dS = intintint fcirc phi sqrt{det(D_phi*D_phi^T)}drdalpha dbeta$



Putting it all together I get that $int_S|y||z|^2dsigma_3 = int_0^{2pi}int_0^{2pi}int_0^1|rsin(alpha)|r^2sin(beta)^2sqrt{2}r^2drdalpha dbeta = frac{sqrt{2}}{6}piint_0^{2pi}|sin(alpha)|dalpha = frac{sqrt{2}}{6}pi(int_0^pi sin(alpha) dalpha - int_pi^{2pi} sin(alpha) dalpha) = frac{4sqrt{2}}{6}pi = frac{2sqrt{2}}{3}pi$



Is my calculation correct?



And if not, what is the right way to calculate it?

    Are you asking how to do the single variable integral that you've arrived at?

    Well the final result certainly can't be zero, so no, and you haven't done the single variable integral correctly, since that integral also must be positive.

    @jgon Though, is the way up to the single variable integral correct?

    Not sure, I didn't want to compute the determinant of the matrix.
