Abstract :
We derive some results on determining the exponential of a derivative squared and apply it to several integrals including a communication theory integral. Using this technique, one can, in principle, compute the expected value of any function whose variables are Gaussian distributed. Some generalizations to defining functions defined as operators acting on other functions is also briefly considered
