Theorem Lists

Wikipedia's List of Theorems has 450 theorems. In addition there are long lists of Lemmas and Inequalities.

Noel Vaillant's Probability Tutorials can be indexed by the 140 theorems contained therein.

Nathan W. Kahl has posted a list Top 100 Theorems, attributed to Paul and Jack Abad but enhanced with many well-chosen links.

Theorem of the Day, attributed by David Simmons-Duffin to Matt Gline and offering infinitely many theorems, is the perfect satirical antidote to this site...

...while Ari Nieh's Sarong Theorem Archive is the perfect sartorial complement!

A list of cameo appearances by theorems in the arts (thanks to Anthony Knapp for prompting this).
