In mathematical analysis, the final value theorem (FVT) is one of several similar theorems used to relate frequency domain expressions to the time domain behavior as time approaches infinity. in continuous time has (unilateral) Laplace transform in discrete time has (unilateral) Z-transform
(see Abelian and Tauberian theorems for integral transforms).

Final Value Theorem for improperly integrable functions (Abel's theoremAbel's theorem for integrals)
This is a version of Abel's theorem.

in practice, Dirichlet's test for improper integrals is often helpful. An example is the Dirichlet integral.

Examples
Example where FVT holds
For example, for a system described by transfer function
the impulse response converges to
That is, the system returns to zero after being disturbed by a short impulse. However, the Laplace transform of the unit step response is
and so the step response converges to
So a zero-state system will follow an exponential rise to a final value of 3.
Example where FVT does not hold
For a system described by the transfer function
the final value theorem appears to predict the final value of the impulse response to be 0 and the final value of the step response to be 1. However, neither time-domain limit exists, and so the final value theorem predictions are not valid. In fact, both the impulse response and step response oscillate, and (in this special case) the final value theorem describes the average values around which the responses oscillate.
There are two checks performed in Control theory which confirm valid results for the Final Value Theorem:
must have negative real parts.
must not have more than one pole at the origin.
