DEFINITION 7.7. Let f [a,b] → R be a bounded function and let P be the collection of all
partitions of [a, b]. The upper integral of f is defined to be
U(f) = inf{U(f, P) : P ≤ P}.
The lower integral of f is defined to be
L(f) = sup{L(f, P) : P ≤ P}.
LEMMA 7.8. Let f : [a, b] → R be a bounded function, say, m≤ f(x) ≤ M for all x € [a, b]. Then
we have
m(b − a) ≤ L(f) ≤ U(f) ≤ M(b − a).

U(f). When this

happens, we denote
·Sof
f and

f(x) dx to be this common value. That is,
So f(x) dx = L(f) = U(ƒ).
PROPOSITION 7.10. Assume that a bounded function f : [a, b] → R is integrable. If f(x) > 0 for

THEOREM 7.11. Let ƒ : [a,b] → R be bounded. Then f is integrable if and only if for all € > 0
there exists a partition P of [a, b] such that
U(f, Pe) — L(f, Pc) < €.
