Abstract

A new heuristic method for the evaluation of definite integrals is presented. This ''method of brackets'' has its origin in methods developed for the evaluation of Feynman diagrams. The operational rules are described and the method is illustrated with several examples. The method of brackets reduces the evaluation of a large class of definite integrals to the solution of a linear system of equations.
