  2. Euler substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_substitution

    The substitutions of Euler can be generalized by allowing the use of imaginary numbers. For example, in the integral +, the substitution + = + can be used. Extensions to the complex numbers allows us to use every type of Euler substitution regardless of the coefficients on the quadratic.

  3. Integration by substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration_by_substitution

    In calculus, integration by substitution, also known as u-substitution, reverse chain rule or change of variables, [1] is a method for evaluating integrals and antiderivatives. It is the counterpart to the chain rule for differentiation , and can loosely be thought of as using the chain rule "backwards."

  4. Change of variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change_of_variables

    Difficult integrals may also be solved by simplifying the integral using a change of variables given by the corresponding Jacobian matrix and determinant. [1] Using the Jacobian determinant and the corresponding change of variable that it gives is the basis of coordinate systems such as polar, cylindrical, and spherical coordinate systems.

  5. Integration using Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration_using_Euler's...

    Using Euler's formula, any trigonometric function may be written in terms of complex exponential functions, namely and and then integrated. This technique is often simpler and faster than using trigonometric identities or integration by parts , and is sufficiently powerful to integrate any rational expression involving trigonometric functions.

  6. Equating coefficients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equating_coefficients

    The unique pair of values a, b satisfying the first two equations is (a, b) = (1, 1); since these values also satisfy the third equation, there do in fact exist a, b such that a times the original first equation plus b times the original second equation equals the original third equation; we conclude that the third equation is linearly ...

  7. Tangent half-angle substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Tangent_half-angle_substitution

    The substitution is described in most integral calculus textbooks since the late 19th century, usually without any special name. [5] It is known in Russia as the universal trigonometric substitution, [6] and also known by variant names such as half-tangent substitution or half-angle substitution.

  8. Substitution (logic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitution_(logic)

    The ground substitution { x ↦ 2 } cannot have an inverse due to a similar loss of origin information e.g. in (x+2) { x ↦ 2 } = 2+2, even if replacing constants by variables was allowed by some fictitious kind of "generalized substitutions".

  9. Explicit substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explicit_substitution

    One most important example is the "substitution lemma", which with the notation of λx becomes (M x:=N ) y:=P = (M y:=P ) x:=(N y:=P ) (where x≠y and x not free in P) A surprising counterexample, due to Melliès, [ 5 ] shows that the way this rule is encoded in the original calculus of explicit substitutions is not strongly normalizing .
