Integration by Parts and Polynomial Identities (sum and difference of the n-th powers of x and y)

Consider ∫uv(n+1)dx=∫udv(n)=uv(n)−∫u′v(n)dx

Thus we have ∫u′v(n)dx=∫u′dv(n−1)=u′v(n−1)−∫u″v(n−1)dx

Therefore ∫uvn+1dx=uv(n)−u′v(n−1)+u″v(n−2)+...+(−1)nu(n)v+(−1)n+1∫u(n+1)vdx

∫uvn+1dx++(−1)n∫u(n+1)vdx=uv(n)−u′v(n−1)+u″v(n−2)+...+(−1)nu(n)v

Derivative both sides, we have

uv(n+1)+(−1)nu(n+1)v=ddx(uv(n)−u′v(n−1)+u″v(n−2)+...+u(n)v)

We already know that ddx(uv)=(∂u+∂v)(uv)

And Consider the differential operator two sides,

∂v(n+1)+(−1)n∂u(n+1)=(∂v+∂u)(∂v(n)−∂u∂v(n−1)+∂u(2)∂v(n−2)+...+(−1)n∂u(n))

It's just polynomials identity xn+1+(−1)nyn+1=(x+y)(xn−xn−1y+...+(−1)n−1(xyn−1)+(−1)nyn)

When n=1, we have x2−y2=(x+y)(x−y)

When n=2, we have x3+y3=(x+y)(x2−xy+y2)

we can let y:=−y and get xn+1−yn+1=(x−y)(xn+xn−1y+xn−2y2+...+yn)

Thus we have xn+1−yn+1=(x−y)(xn+xn−1y+xn−2y2+...+yn), for all n∈N

And xn+1+yn+1=(x+y)(xn−xn−1y+...+(−1)n−1(xyn−1)+yn), for all n∈2N

It shows an interesting way to derivate the identity
