## Solution

$$
\begin{aligned}
& \int_{0}^{1} \frac{x^{3}}{\left(x^{2}+1\right)^{2}} d x=\int_{0}^{1} \frac{x\left(x^{2}+1\right)-x}{\left(x^{2}+1\right)^{2}} d x=\int_{0}^{1} \frac{x}{x^{2}+1} d x-\int_{0}^{1} \frac{x}{\left(x^{2}+1\right)^{2}} d x= \\
& =\frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{0}^{1} \frac{d\left(x^{2}+1\right)}{x^{2}+1}-\frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{0}^{1} \frac{d\left(x^{2}+1\right)}{\left(x^{2}+1\right)^{2}}=\left.\frac{1}{2} \cdot \ln \left(x^{2}+1\right)\right|_{0} ^{1}-\left.\frac{1}{2} \cdot\left(-\frac{1}{x^{2}+1}\right)\right|_{0} ^{1}= \\
& =\frac{1}{2} \cdot \ln \left(1^{2}+1\right)-\frac{1}{2} \cdot \ln \left(0^{2}+1\right)+\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{1^{2}+1}-\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{0^{2}+1}= \\
& =\frac{\ln 2}{2}-\frac{\ln 1}{2}+\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2} \cdot 1=\frac{\ln 2}{2}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{\ln 2}{2}-\frac{1}{4}= \\
& =\frac{2 \ln 2-1}{4}=\frac{\ln 4-1}{4}
\end{aligned}
