Evaluate:
$$intlimits_x=0^infty e^-ax^2I_0(x) log_2(I_0(x))x , dx$$



where $I_0(x)$ is the modified Bessel function of first kind and zeroth order, and $alpha>0$.




I can find upper bounds and lower bounds using the expansion of $I_0(x)$; however, they are not enough. Any idea how to solve this?

    A not-so-terrible upper bound can be derived from $log I_0(x)leq x$. We have $$int_0^+infty xcdot I_0(x) e^-ax^2,dx = frac12ae^frac14a.$$

  • @JackD'Aurizio To get another bound I can use $ln(x)leq x-1$. Then I will need to evaluate $int_0^inftyx I_0(x)^2 e^-a x^2 dx$. Do you have an answer for this as well?

  • Such bound is much worse than the previous one, but in any case $$int_0^+inftyx I_0(x)^2 e^-ax^2,dx = frac12a e^1/(2a) I_0(1/(2a)).$$
