Carlson's multivariate T-function #
Carlson's Definition 5.12-1 defines T(b,z) as the Dirichlet average of
w ↦ exp (1 / w). Carlson immediately turns to a limiting two-variable case; this file keeps
the short general multivariate theory separate from that specialization.
The intrinsic variable domain used here says that the convex hull of the variables avoids zero. Carlson's assumption that all variables lie in a common open half-plane not containing zero implies this condition.

Instances For
Any convex zero-avoiding set containing all variables certifies membership in the intrinsic T-variable domain. Carlson applies this with an open half-plane not containing zero.
On the T-variable domain, Carlson's affine form never vanishes on the standard simplex.
The T-kernel composed with Carlson's affine form is continuous on the simplex whenever the convex hull of the variables avoids zero.
For a fixed simplex point, the T-kernel is analytic in all variables throughout the intrinsic zero-avoiding domain.

The native T-integrand is integrable under Carlson's parameter and variable hypotheses.
Simultaneous permutation of parameters and variables leaves the native regularized T-integral unchanged.
A regularized T-continuation is entire in the Dirichlet parameters.
A regularized T-continuation agrees with Carlson's native integral on its convergence domain.
The entire regularized continuation of T, if it exists, is unique.
The smooth-kernel Dirichlet continuation theorem supplies an entire regularized T-continuation whenever the convex hull of the variables avoids zero. This proof does not construct a contour representation.
The intrinsic T-variable domain is open.
