Hi,
for Integrate[] there is a Option Assumptions->Element[{av1,av2},Reals]
and for FullSimplify[]/Simplify[] there is a second argument for
the assymptions and there a two functions Assuming[] and Refine[]
to restrict the symbols to Reals or Integers .. and you can use the
global variable $Assumptions to set the domains global.
Regards
Jens
