Integrals
The integral of a closed-form expression may or may not itself be expressible as a closed-form expression. This study is referred to as differential Galois theory, by analogy with algebraic Galois theory.
The basic theorem of differential Galois theory is due to Joseph Liouville in the 1830s and 1840s and hence referred to as Liouville's theorem.
A standard example of an elementary function whose antiderivative does not have a closed-form expression is e−x2, whose antiderivative is (up to constants) the error function.
