 Fundamental theorem of calculus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The fundamental theorem of calculus is the statement that the two central operations of calculus, differentiation and integration, are inverses of each other.
This theorem is of such central importance in calculus that it deserves to be called the fundamental theorem for the entire field of study.
An important consequence of this, sometimes called the second fundamental theorem of calculus, allows one to compute integrals by using an antiderivative of the function to be integrated.

The Fundamental Theorem of Poker is simply expressed and appears axiomatic, yet its proper application to the countless varieties of circumstances that a poker player may face requires a great deal of knowledge, skill, and experience.

 Fundamental theorem of algebra
The fundamental theorem of algebra (now considered something of a misnomer by many mathematicians) states that every complex polynomial of degree n has exactly n zeroes, counted with multiplicity.
All proofs of the fundamental theorem necessarily involve some analysis, or more precisely, the concept of continuity of real or complex polynomials.
Applying Liouville's theorem which states that a bounded entire function must be constant, we conclude that a polynomial without complex zeroes must be constant.

The fundamental theorem of arithmetic is at the center of number theory, and simply, but elegantly, says that all composite numbers are products of smaller prime numbers, unique except for order.
Chita, Your answer to my inquiry about the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, although elegant, just didn't do it for me. I understood what the theorem states, and perhaps now you have given me an appreciation for its simplicity, but I am looking for something more.
The specialness of the fundamental theorem lies in the fact that there there is an infinite set of prime numbers and that unique combinations of them generate an infinite set of composite numbers.

In the case of the present theorem, there are three critical phrases, and you should try to explain why each one is there.
The statement of the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic only talks about integers greater than one.
It would be possible to state the theorem to include this case, but it would distort the main meaning so much that it's not worthwhile.

 Fisher's fundamental theorem of natural selection
From this formulation there grew the misinterpretation that the fundamental theorem deals with an overall increase in the average Malthusian parameter of a population (e.g., Wright, 1930, 1955; Li, 1955; Kempthorne, 1957; Crow and Kimura, 1956; Kimura, 1958, 1965; Kojima and Kelleher, 1960; Ewens, 1969).
It is only when the organism lives in a density independent environment that the fundamental theorem seems to hold as a general principle.
At this limit the theorem defines a law of hyper-exponential increase in the population abundance (Witting, 2000b); a law that includes the Malthusian law of exponential increase (Malthus, 1798) as the special case with no evolutionary potential.

 Remarks on Proving The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra
Many proofs of the theorem are known, which place varying degrees of emphasis on the algebraic and analytic aspects of the theorem.
The conclusion that the number of roots equals the degree of the polynomial (counting multiple roots according to their multiplicity) then follows by a nice argument by mathematical induction.
The theorem is obviously true for polynomials of degree one.

 The Prime Glossary: Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic
We can reword the Fundamental Theorem this way: the canonical factorization of an integer greater than one is unique.
This theorem (and indeed any theorem labeled "fundamental") should not be taken too lightly.
Basically two properties: first, that every integer can be written as a product of primes (this is a simple consequence of the well ordering principle); and second, if a prime p divides ab, then p divides a or b (this is sometimes used as the definition of prime, see the entry prime number).

Unless qualified, the term ``The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" is conventionally taken to apply to a function of a single variable, integrated over an interval of the real line.
If F is the gradient of a scalar field, and if in the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus for Line Integrals the points A and B coincide, then that theorem tells us that the line integral of F around a closed (with appropriate restrictions on the region R) vanishes.
Here, as in Green's Theorem, the closed contour C is the boundary of the surface S, and again, if F is regarded as an ``antiderivative'' of (curl F), then the integral over the region is equal to the antiderivative evaluated on the boundary of the region.
