We first introduce the universal associated Legendre polynomials, which are occurred in studying the non-central fields such as the single ring-shaped potential and then present definite integrals IA±(a, τ)=∫-1+1xa[Pl'm'(x)]2/(1±x)τdx, a=0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, τ=1, 2, 3, IB(b, σ)=∫-1+1xb[Pl'm'(x)]2/(1- x2)σdx, b=0, 2, 4, 6, 8, σ=1, 2, 3, and IC±(c, κ)=∫-1+1xc[Pl'm'(x)]2/[(1-x2)κ(1±x)]dx, c=0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, κ=1, 2. The superindices “±” in IA±(a, τ) and IC±(c, κ) correspond to those of the factor (1±x) involved in weight functions. The formulas obtained in this work and also those for integer quantum numbers l' and m' are very useful and unavailable in classic handbooks.
