In calculus, integration by substitution, also known as u-substitution, reverse chain rule or change of variables, [1] is a method for evaluating integrals and antiderivatives. It is the counterpart to the chain rule for differentiation , and can loosely be thought of as using the chain rule "backwards."
Change of variables is an operation that is related to substitution. However these are different operations, as can be seen when considering differentiation or integration (integration by substitution). A very simple example of a useful variable change can be seen in the problem of finding the roots of the sixth-degree polynomial:
Often, theory can establish the existence of a change of variables, although the formula itself cannot be explicitly stated. For an integrable Hamiltonian system of dimension , with ˙ = / and ˙ = /, there exist integrals .

In integral calculus, Euler's formula for complex numbers may be used to evaluate integrals involving trigonometric functions.Using Euler's formula, any trigonometric function may be written in terms of complex exponential functions, namely and and then integrated.
In Integration by substitution, the limits of integration will change due to the new function being integrated. With the function that is being derived, a {\displaystyle a} and b {\displaystyle b} are solved for f ( u ) {\displaystyle f(u)} .

For example, when the S&P 500 lost 18% in 2022, 51% of U.S. equity managers underperformed the market. An equal investment in an S&P 500 index fund would be worth $12,890.
