Can we find a closed form for $ \int\nolimits_{- \infty}^{\infty} \frac{\exp\left(-(a+bx)^2\right)}{1+\exp(x)}\mathrm dx$?
Can we find a closed form for this definite integral: $$ \int\nolimits_{- \infty}^{\infty} \frac{\exp\left(-(a+bx)^2\right)}{1+\exp(x)}\mathrm dx $$
The integral has a closed form when $a = 0$ and $b \neq 0$. (The integral diverges if $b=0$.) We have $$ I = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{e^{-b^2x^2}}{1+e^x} dx. $$ Making the substitution $x \to -x$, we can rewrite it as $$ I = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{e^{-b^2x^2}}{1+e^{-x}} dx = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{e^{-b^2x^2} \cdot e^x}{1+e^{x}} dx. $$ Adding the two integrals and dividing by $2$, $$ I = \frac{1}{2} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-b^2x^2} dx = \frac{1}{2 |b|} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-y^2} dy, $$ through the substitution $y =|b|x$. Thus we end up with the familiar Gaussian integral, which evaluates to $\sqrt{\pi}$. Thus the given integral is equal to $$ I = \frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2|b|}. $$
For general $a$, of course, this trick does not work. I think it should be difficult to compute the integral.
Note. The same idea can be used to show that if $f(x)$ is a continuous even function and $c > 0$, then $$ \int_{-c}^c \frac{f(x)}{1+e^x} dx = \frac{1}{2} \int_{-c}^c f(x) dx = \int_0^c f(x) dx. $$
Split integration region and expand $(1+\mathrm{e}^x)^{-1}$: $$ (1+\mathrm{e}^x)^{-1} = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \sum_{k \ge 0} (-1)^k \mathrm{e}^{-(k+1)x} & x > 0 \\ \sum_{k \ge 0} (-1)^k \mathrm{e}^{k x} & x \le 0 \end{array} \right. $$ and then integrate term-wise, assuming $b>0$: $$ \int_0^\infty \mathrm{e}^{-(a+b x)^2} \mathrm{e}^{-(k+1) x} \, \mathrm{d} x = \frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2 b} \exp \left( \frac{(k+1)(k+1+4 a b)}{4 b^2} \right) \mathrm{erfc}\left( a + \frac{k + 1}{2 b} \right) $$ and $$ \int_{-\infty}^0 \mathrm{e}^{-(a+b x)^2} \mathrm{e}^{k x} \, \mathrm{d} x = \frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2 b} \exp\left( \frac{k(k-4 a b)}{4 b^2} \right) \mathrm{erfc}\left( \frac{k}{2b} -a\right) $$
Wolfram Alpha gives a result with $a=0$ of $\frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2b}$ (note my $a$ is your $b^2$) but chokes when $a$ is nonzero.
