I have tried many time to know why in the first given answer of this question used Bounds $-infty to infty$ in the second line however the variable change which has been used is clear dosn't give $-infty$ and $+infty$ , Probably a wrong typo of Author

  • Focus on one of the terms: $int_-infty^0 f(x-1/x)dx$. Let $x=-e^theta$, which gives $theta=infty$ when $x=-infty$ and $theta=-infty$ when $x=0$. Everything seems fine?

Your question is not at all clear. But, I think you are asking.



When go from here:
$int_-infty^inftyfleft(x-x^-1right)dx=int_0^inftyfleft(x-x^-1right)dx+int_-infty^0fleft(x-x^-1right)dx$



to here:
$int_-infty^inftyf(2sinhtheta),e^thetadtheta+int_-infty^inftyf(2sinhtheta),e^-thetadtheta$



How do we justify the change to the limits of integration?



In the left hand integral above, we make the substitution $x = e^theta$



This substitution acts on the limits of integration. And we must find values of $theta$ that correspond to the $x$ values associated with $0, infty.$ Alternatively, we can invert the substitution. $theta = ln x, lim_limitsxto 0^+ ln x = -infty, lim_limitsxto infty ln x = infty.$



And for the right hand intgral we do something very similar, except our substituion is $x = e^-theta$
