The following is a list of integrals (antiderivative functions) of rational functions. Any rational function can be integrated by partial fraction decomposition of the function into a sum of functions of the form:

, and

which can then be integrated term by term.

For other types of functions, see lists of integrals.

Miscellaneous integrands

Integrands of the form xm(a x + b)n

[edit]

Many of the following antiderivatives have a term of the form ln |ax + b|. Because this is undefined when x = −b / a, the most general form of the antiderivative replaces the constant of integration with a locally constant function.[1] However, it is conventional to omit this from the notation. For example, is usually abbreviated as where C is to be understood as notation for a locally constant function of x. This convention will be adhered to in the following.
