HYPERSPHERE_INTEGRALS\ Integrals on the Surface of the Unit Hypersphere in M Dimensions {#hypersphere_integrals-integrals-on-the-surface-of-the-unit-hypersphere-in-m-dimensions align=”center”} ================================================================


HYPERSPHERE_INTEGRALS is a C++ library which returns the exact value of the integral of any monomial over the surface of the unit hypersphere in M dimensions.

The surface of the unit hypersphere in M dimensions is defined by

        sum ( 1 <= i <= m ) x(i)^2 = 1

The integrands are all of the form

        f(x) = product ( 1 <= m <= m ) x(i) ^ e(i)

where the exponents e are nonnegative integers. If any exponent is an odd integer, the integral will be zero. Thus, the “interesting” results occur when all exponents are even.
