  1. upper/lower bound

    a∈Ra \in \mathbb{R}a∈R is an upper (resp. lower ) bound of S if x ≤ a (resp. x ≥ a) holds for all x ∈ S. The upper and lower bounds are not unique.

  2. Maximum/minimum

    The maximum (resp. minimum) of S denoted by max S (resp. min S) is an upper (resp. lower) bound of S which is contained in S

  3. Supremum/infimum

    The supremum Sup S (resp. infimum Inf S) is the smallest upper bound (resp. largest lower bound), if it exists at all.

    If S has an upper/lower bound then it is called bounded from above/from below. If S is bounded both from above and below, then it is called bounded.

A function G:[a,b]→RG:[a, b] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}G:[a,b]→R is called an anti-derivative of fff if GGG is continuous on [a,b],[a, b],[a,b], it is differentiable on ]a,b[,] a, b[,]a,b[, and G ′(x)=f(x)G~~^{\prime}(x)=f(x)G ′(x)=f(x) for all x∈]a,b[\left.x \in\right] a, b[x∈]a,b[

  96. Mean value theorem for integrals

    If f:[a,b]→Rf:[a, b] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}f:[a,b]→R is continuous, then there is a c∈[a,b],c \in[a, b],c∈[a,b], such that ∫abf(x)dx=f(c)(b−a)\int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=f(c)(b-a)∫ab​f(x)dx=f(c)(b−a)

    Let f:[a,b]→Rf:[a, b] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}f:[a,b]→R be continuous. Then, F(x):=∫axf(t)dt F(x):=\int_{a}^{x} f(t) d tF(x):=∫ax​f(t)dt is an anti-derivative of $f$.

  98. Fundamental theorem of calculus II

    Let f:[a,b]→Rf:[a, b] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}f:[a,b]→R be continuous and let GGG be an anti-derivative of fff . Then ∫abf(x)dx=G(b)−G(a) \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=G(b)-G(a)∫ab​f(x)dx=G(b)−G(a)

    ∫ϕ(α)ϕ(β)f(x)dx=∫αβf(ϕ(t))ϕ′(t)dt\int_{\phi(\alpha)}^{\phi(\beta)} f(x) d x=\int_{\alpha}^{\beta} f(\phi(t)) \phi^{\prime}(t) d t∫ϕ(α)ϕ(β)​f(x)dx=∫αβ​f(ϕ(t))ϕ′(t)dt

  100. improper integral

    In the above case we define the improper integral of f on I as (1) if I=[a,b[I=[a, b[I=[a,b[ , then ∫ab−f(t)dt:=lim⁡x→b−(∫axf(t)dt)\int_{a}^{b-} f(t) d t:=\lim _{x \rightarrow b-}\left(\int_{a}^{x} f(t) d t\right)∫ab−​f(t)dt:=limx→b−​(∫ax​f(t)dt) (2) if I=]a,b],I=] a, b],I=]a,b], then ∫a+bf(t)dt:=lim⁡x→a+(∫xbf(t)dt)\int_{a^{+}}^{b} f(t) d t:=\lim _{x \rightarrow a+}\left(\int_{x}^{b} f(t) d t\right)∫a+b​f(t)dt:=limx→a+​(∫xb​f(t)dt) (3) if I=]a,b[I=] a, b[I=]a,b[ , ∫a+b−f(t)dt:=∫a+cf(t)dt+∫cb−f(…
