/-- Recurrence formula for the Beta function. -/
theorem betaIntegral_recurrence {u v : ℂ} (hu : 0 < re u) (hv : 0 < re v) :
    u * betaIntegral u (v + 1) = v * betaIntegral (u + 1) v := by
  -- NB: If we knew `Gamma (u + v + 1) ≠ 0` this would be an easy consequence of
  -- `Gamma_mul_Gamma_eq_betaIntegral`; but we don't know that yet. We will prove it later, but
  -- this lemma is needed in the proof. So we give a (somewhat laborious) direct argument.
