Lebesgue Integration: Right-Continuous Function & Series Convergence

Click For Summary
Lebesgue integration concerning right-continuous functions involves a series that accounts for jump components. The discussion raises the question of whether absolute convergence is necessary for this series and seeks clarification on the rationale behind this requirement. It is suggested that the inquiry pertains to the Lebesgue-Stieltjes integral, where the function g(x) is right-continuous. The importance of absolute convergence lies in ensuring the integral's stability and consistency. Understanding these concepts is crucial for proper application in Lebesgue integration theory.

Hello all,

I would like to know when the Lebesgue integration w.r.t. a right-continuous function, there would be a series part which takes account of the jump components.

Is it true that we require the series to be absolutely convergent? if so, what is the rationale of defining this instead of simply convergent?

Thanks very much.

The question is confusing (series part?). Could you give an example of what you are asking about.
 
I think... he's talking about the Stieltjes-Lebesgue measure df(x)?
 
Yup, it should be Lebesgue-Stieltjes integral \int f(x) d g(x) with g(x) being right-continuous.
