Here's an integral that comes up in calculating the number of domino tilings of the plane:
Integrate[Log[(Sin[k] + Sqrt[1 + Sin[k]^2])^2], {k, 0, π}]
(* 4 Catalan *)
And here is the same result with a trivial addition:
Integrate[Log[(Sin[k] + Sqrt[1 + Sin[k]^2])^2] + x, {k, 0, π}]
(* 4 Catalan + π x *)
But if I change the integrand into a series, the result is different:
Integrate[Log[(Sin[k] + Sqrt[1 + Sin[k]^2])^2] + x + O[x]^2, {k, 0, π}]
(* 4 Catalan + π (x + Log[2]) *)
Note the additional term independent of x
. Surely this is a bug?
I'm using Mathematica 11.0.1 on Windows 10 (64-bit).
