  1. What does it mean for an "integral" to be convergent?

    Feb 17, 2025 · The noun phrase "improper integral" written as $$ \int_a^\infty f (x) \, dx $$ is well defined. If the appropriate limit exists, we attach the property "convergent" to that expression and use …

  2. Why must the curve of an integral intersect the origin?

    Jan 4, 2026 · The other kind of integral you often encounter is the definite integral. This is the integral that is sometimes described as "the area under the curve" (although I would consider that an …

  3. What is the integral of 1/x? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Answers to the question of the integral of $\frac {1} {x}$ are all based on an implicit assumption that the upper and lower limits of the integral are both positive real numbers.

  4. What is the integral of 0? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Feb 4, 2018 · The integral of 0 is C, because the derivative of C is zero. Also, it makes sense logically if you recall the fact that the derivative of the function is the function's slope, because any function f …

  6. Can the integral closure of a ring be taken intrinsically?

    Oct 11, 2025 · However, one "intrinsic integral closure" that is often used is the normalization, which in the case on an integral domain is the integral closure in its field of fractions. It's the maximal integral …

  7. solving the integral of $e^ {x^2}$ - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    The integral which you describe has no closed form which is to say that it cannot be expressed in elementary functions. For example, you can express $\int x^2 \mathrm {d}x$ in elementary functions …

  8. What is an integral? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 15, 2017 · A different type of integral, if you want to call it an integral, is a "path integral". These are actually defined by a "normal" integral (such as a Riemann integral), but path integrals do not seek to …
