Tables of integrals

Integration is one of the two basic operations in calculus. While differentiation has easy rules by which the derivative of a complicated function can be found by differentiating its simpler component functions, integration does not, so tables of known integrals are often useful. This page lists some of the most common antiderivatives.

"C" is used for an arbitrary constant of integration that can only be determined if something about the value of the integral at some point is known. Thus each function has an infinite number of antiderivatives.

These formulas only state in another form the assertions in the table of derivatives.

Definite integrals lacking closed-form antiderivatives

There are some functions whose antiderivatives "cannot" be expressed in closed form. However, the values of the definite integrals of some of these functions over some common intervals can be calculated. A few useful integrals are given below.

:$int_0^infty\left\{sqrt\left\{x\right\},e^\left\{-x\right\},dx\right\} = frac\left\{1\right\}\left\{2\right\}sqrt pi$ (see also Gamma function)

:$int_0^infty\left\{e^\left\{-x^2\right\},dx\right\} = frac\left\{1\right\}\left\{2\right\}sqrt pi$ (the Gaussian integral)

:$int_0^infty\left\{frac\left\{x\right\}\left\{e^x-1\right\},dx\right\} = frac\left\{pi^2\right\}\left\{6\right\}$ (see also Bernoulli number)

:$int_0^infty\left\{frac\left\{x^3\right\}\left\{e^x-1\right\},dx\right\} = frac\left\{pi^4\right\}\left\{15\right\}$

:$int_0^inftyfrac\left\{sin\left(x\right)\right\}\left\{x\right\},dx=frac\left\{pi\right\}\left\{2\right\}$

:$int_0^frac\left\{pi\right\}\left\{2\right\}sin^n\left\{x\right\},dx=int_0^frac\left\{pi\right\}\left\{2\right\}cos^n\left\{x\right\},dx=frac\left\{1 cdot 3 cdot 5 cdot cdots cdot \left(n-1\right)\right\}\left\{2 cdot 4 cdot 6 cdot cdots cdot n\right\}frac\left\{pi\right\}\left\{2\right\}$ (if "n" is an even integer and $scriptstyle\left\{n ge 2\right\}$)

:$int_0^frac\left\{pi\right\}\left\{2\right\}sin^n\left\{x\right\},dx=int_0^frac\left\{pi\right\}\left\{2\right\}cos^n\left\{x\right\},dx=frac\left\{2 cdot 4 cdot 6 cdot cdots cdot \left(n-1\right)\right\}\left\{3 cdot 5 cdot 7 cdot cdots cdot n\right\}$ (if $scriptstyle\left\{n\right\}$ is an odd integer and $scriptstyle\left\{n ge 3\right\}$)

:$int_0^inftyfrac\left\{sin^2\left\{x\left\{x^2\right\},dx=frac\left\{pi\right\}\left\{2\right\}$

:$int_0^infty x^\left\{z-1\right\},e^\left\{-x\right\},dx = Gamma\left(z\right)$ (where $Gamma\left(z\right)$ is the Gamma function)

:$int_\left\{-infty\right\}^infty e^\left\{-\left(ax^2+bx+c\right)\right\},dx=sqrt\left\{frac\left\{pi\right\}\left\{aexpleft \left[frac\left\{b^2-4ac\right\}\left\{4a\right\} ight\right]$ (where $exp \left[u\right]$ is the exponential function $e^u$, and $a>0$)

:$int_\left\{0\right\}^\left\{2 pi\right\} e^\left\{x cos heta\right\} d heta = 2 pi I_\left\{0\right\}\left(x\right)$ (where $I_\left\{0\right\}\left(x\right)$ is the modified Bessel function of the first kind)

:$int_\left\{0\right\}^\left\{2 pi\right\} e^\left\{x cos heta + y sin heta\right\} d heta = 2 pi I_\left\{0\right\} left\left(sqrt\left\{x^2 + y^2\right\} ight\right)$

:$int_\left\{-infty\right\}^\left\{infty\right\}\left\{\left(1 + x^2/ u\right)^\left\{-\left( u + 1\right)/2\right\}dx\right\} = frac \left\{ sqrt\left\{ u pi\right\} Gamma\left( u/2\right)\right\} \left\{Gamma\left(\left( u + 1\right)/2\right)\right)\right\},$, $u > 0,$, this is related to the probability density function of the Student's t-distribution)

The method of exhaustion provides a formula for the general case when no antiderivative exists:

:$int_a^b\left\{f\left(x\right),dx\right\} = \left(b - a\right) sumlimits_\left\{n = 1\right\}^infty \left\{sumlimits_\left\{m = 1\right\}^\left\{2^n - 1\right\} \left\{left\left( \left\{ - 1\right\} ight\right)^\left\{m + 1\right\} \right\} \right\} 2^\left\{ - n\right\} f\left(a + mleft\left( \left\{b - a\right\} ight\right)2^\left\{-n\right\} \right).$

Historical development of integrals

A compilation of a list of integrals (Integraltafeln) and techniques of integral calculuswas published by the German mathematician Meyer Hirsch in 1810. These tables were republished in the United Kingdom in 1823. More extensive tables were compiled in 1858 by the Dutch mathematician David de Bierens de Haan. A new edition was published in 1862. These tables, which contain mainly integrals of elementary functions, remained in use until the middle ofthe 20th century. They were then replaced by the much more extensive tables of Gradshteyn and Ryzhik.In Gradshteyn and Ryzhik, integrals originating from the book by de Bierens are denoted by BI.Since 1968 there is the Risch algorithm for determining indefinite integrals.

Other lists of integrals

Gradshteyn and Ryzhik contains a large collection of results. Other useful resources include the "CRC Standard Mathematical Tables and Formulae" and Abramowitz and Stegun. A&S contains many identities concerning specific integrals, which are organized with the most relevant topic instead of being collected into a separate table. There are several web sites which have tables of integrals and integrals on demand.
