On page 56 of Titchmarsh's Theory of Functions, Titchmarsh makes the following claim:
beginalign
fracGamma(x)Gamma(y)Gamma(x+y) &= phi(x,y); (x>0,y>0)
endalign
where beginalign
phi(x,y) &=intlimits_0^inftyfracv^y-1(1+v)^x+ydv\
&= 2 intlimits_0^frac12pi (cos theta)^2x-1(sintheta)^2y-1dtheta\
&= intlimits_0^1 lambda^x-1(1-lambda)^y-1dlambda
endalign
I understand how the first integral is achieved using substitution, but I can't figure out how to go from the first integral to the second or the second integral to the third.

Second to third is by the substitution $lambda = (cos x)^2$

From the first to second,
beginalign
phi(x,y) &=intlimits_0^inftyfracv^y-1(1+v)^x+ydv\
&=intlimits_0^inftyfrac(tan^2theta)^y-1(1+(tan^2theta))^x+yd(tan^2theta)\
&=intlimits_0^frac12pifrac(tan^2theta)^y-1(sec^2theta)^x+y(2tanthetasec^2theta)dtheta\
&=2intlimits_0^frac12pi(sintheta)^2y-2+1(cos theta)^-(2y-2+1)+(2x+2y)-2dtheta\
&= 2 intlimits_0^frac12pi (cos theta)^2x-1(sintheta)^2y-1dtheta\
endalign
Now can you think of the next substitution? (Hint: look at the limits and the exponents)
