Display returned integral containing assumptions with integral sign
Something like this:
MakeBoxes[
Integrate[a__, Assumptions -> _],
fmt : TraditionalForm
] := MakeBoxes[Integrate[a], fmt]
Now when you view the integral in TraditionalForm:
Integrate[f[x] Sin[( … :
Integrate[f[x] Sin[(n π x)/L], {x, 0, L},
Assumptions -> k > 0 && L > 0] // TeXForm
\int_0^L f(x) \sin \left(\frac{\pi n x}{L}\right)\, dx …

How make D[f,x] treat OverBar[x] as a constant
If you prefer not to have to make the replacement each time:
OverBar'[x] = 0;
f = a*x + OverBar[x]
D[f, x]
a*x + OverBar[x]
a

How do I SetDelayed $Assumptions
A helper function to make this cleaner:
SetAttributes[mySet, HoldAll]
mySet[LHS_Symbol, RHS_] := (OwnValues[LHS] = {HoldPattern[LHS] :> RHS};)
Now:
mySet[$Assumptions, Print["y"]; x > 0] (* nothing … prints *)
and:
Refine[{x < 0, x == 0, x > 0}]
y
{False, False, True}
Also:
mySet[$Assumptions, Print["y = ", y]; x > y]
y = 1;
Refine[{x > 1, x > 2, x > 3}]
y = 2;
Refine[{x > 1, x > 2, …

Simplifying conditional expressions using assumptions does not work
If you are willing to use Assuming, which acts by way of [$Assumptions](http://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/$Assumptions.html), you can use an `$Assumptions-aware [Condition](http://reference.wolfram.com … [x ∈ Reals] is evaluated
Simplify uses the value of $Assumptions and determines that x ∈ Reals is True
The Condition passes and f[x] evaluates to "success!" …

Why does Assuming[...] work in one case but not in another?
Your function must hold its argument or the Simplify will evaluate before the function even sees it. Use:
Function[expr, Assuming[α > 0 && ϵ > 0 && t > 0, expr], HoldFirst]
Or:
SetAttributes[myAs …

Evaluating an expression assuming a value for a variable only in the local context
While m_goldberg's answer is correct*, provides a proper explanation, and uses only documented behavior, there exists a cleaner syntax for the example given:
x = 42.;
With[{q := x}, NIntegrate[x^2*q …

Detecting operator Set in Assumptions
Simplify::badSet = "Function Set used in assumptions where is likely in error.";
SetAttributes[mySimplify, HoldAll];
mySimplify[expr_, assum_] :=
Message[Simplify::badSet] /; ! … FreeQ[Unevaluated@assum, Set]
mySimplify[else__] := Simplify[else]
Now:
mySimplify[x + y, x = a]
Simplify::badSet: Set used in assumptions where is likely in error. >>
You could overload Simplify …
