Exercise 1.3.20 (Basic properties of the Lebesgue integral of the absolutely integrable functions)

Let f,g : d be absolutely integrable Lebesgue measurable functions. Show that

1.
(translation invariance) for f(x) := f(x + y), y d we have df =df.
2.
(linear change of variables) if T : d d is an invertible linear transformation then df(T) = 1 | det T|df.
3.
(compatibility with the Riemann integral) if f is also (extended via zero support complement) Riemann integrable, then Riemann [a,b]f =df

(i)
By definition we have df =dℜf + idℑf =d(ℜf)+ d(ℜf) + id(ℑf)+ id(ℑf)

Define (ℜf)+(x) := (ℜf)+(x + y), and similarly (ℜf)(x) := (ℜf)(x + y), (ℑf)+(x) := (ℜf)+(x + y), (ℑf)(x) := (ℑf)(x + y). Since all of them are unsigned measurable functions, we can apply Exercise 1.3.15 to obtain

=d(ℜf)+d(ℜf) + id(ℑf)+ id(ℑf) =d(ℜf) + id(ℑf)

Obviously, for any x d we have (ℜf)(x) + i(ℑf)(x) = (ℜf)(x + y) + i(ℑf)(x + y) = f(x + y) = f(x). Thus,

=df

(iii)
In this case we assume that f is real-valued. We start with the Lebesgue integral: df =df+ +df

By Exercise 1.3.13 the Lebesgue integral of the unsigned Lebesgue measurable function is equal to the area under its curve. In other words, define E+ := {(x,t) d × [0,+] : 0 t f(x)} = {(x,t) d × [0,+] : 0 t f+(x)} and E = {(x,t) d × [,0] : f(x) t 0}{(x,t) d × [0,+] : 0 t f(x)}. We then have

= m(E+) m(E)

Using Exercise 1.1.25 we see that

= Riemann[a,b]f.
