List of theorems
This is a list of theorems, by Wikipedia page. See also
In some fields, theorem can be considered as a courtesy title, given to major results, although with a content that would not satisfy a mathematician. No attempt is made here to comment on that aspect of usage: this is a list of results known as theorems. Most of the results do come from mathematics, but there are others from theoretical physics, economics and so on.
