ca.analysis and odes - "exchange" of real analyticity and integration

Sorry for the impreciseness of the title. It is merely meant for an analogy.



Exchange of limiting operations and integrations are basically derived from Lebesgue's dominated convergence theorem. For instance, let $f: mathbb{R}^2 to mathbb{R}$ be Borel measuable. Let $f(cdot, u) in C^k(I)$ for some open set $I$ and for all $u$ in a Borel set $D$. Let



$g = int_D f(x,u) {rm d} u$.



Then a sufficient condition for $g in C^k(I)$ is that $f^{(k)}(x, cdot)$ is dominated by an integrable function on $D$, i.e., $sup_{x in I} |f^{(k)}(x, cdot)| in L^1(D)$, and $g^{(k)}(x) = int_D f^{(k)}(x,u) {rm d} u$ holds in $I$.



My question is about when is real-analyticity preserved under integration, say, if $f$ is real-analytic in $I$ for each $u$, i.e., $f(cdot, u) in C^{omega}(I)$ for all $u in D$, what will be a sufficient condition for $g in C^{omega}(I)$?



Following the above rationale, we will obtain the following condition: for each $x_0 in I$,
1) the radius of convergence of $f(x, u) = sum_k a_k(u) (x-x_0)^k$ is bounded away from zero for all $u in D$.
2) integrability condition: $int_D sum_k a_k(u) (x-x_0)^k {rm d} u < infty$.
Then the analyticity of $g$ follows from Fubini's theorem.



Questions:
1) Is there other sufficient condition different from the above 'superficial' generalization, maybe exploring other characterization of real analyticitiy? The absolute integrability might not be easy to check.
2) Is there a more local version, which might give the radius of convergence of $g$.



Thanks!
