Primitive of Power of Hyperbolic Cosecant of a x

Theorem

 * $\ds \int \csch^n a x \rd x = \frac {-\csch^{n - 2} a x \coth a x} {a \paren {n - 1} } - \frac {n - 2} {n - 1} \int \csch^{n - 2} a x \rd x + C$

Proof
With a view to expressing the primitive in the form:
 * $\ds \int u \frac {\d v} {\d x} \rd x = u v - \int v \frac {\d u} {\d x} \rd x$

let:

and let:

Then:
