When is a Lebesgue integrable function a Riemann integrable function ?



And if we have $fin mathcal{L}^1([0,1],lambda)$, does it implies that $f$ is Riemann integrable, and why ?

          No, it doesn't.



          It was proven by Lebesgue that a bounded function $f$ is Riemann integrable precisely when the set of points where $f$ is discontinuous has measure zero.

            No, of course not. In your setup, the function $1_{mathbb Q}$, the characteristic of the rationals, is everywhere discontinuous. And $f(x)=tfrac1{sqrt x},1_{mathbb Q}$ is unbounded, everywhere discontinuous, and still in $L^1[0,1]$.

          This is the Riemann-Lebesgue Theorem, which says that $f$ is Riemann integrable if and only if the set of discontinuity points is of measure zero.



          Note that $1_{mathbb{Q}}$ (the indicator of the rationals) is Lebesgue-integrable but not Riemann integrable. On $[0,1]$ it is almost everywhere bounded but not continuous. Here, the set of discontinuity points is of measure $1$. So we cannot say anything about continuity and Lebesgue integrability (except that every continuous function on a set of finite measure is Lebesgue-integrable).

              Note that $1_{mathbb{Q}}$ (the indicator of the rationals) is Lebesgue-integrable but not Riemann integrable. On $[0,1]$ it is almost everywhere bounded but not continuous. Here, the set of discontinuity points is of measure $1$. So we cannot say anything about continuity and Lebesgue integrability (except that every continuous function on a set of finite measure is Lebesgue-integrable).

                This is the Riemann-Lebesgue Theorem, which says that $f$ is Riemann integrable if and only if the set of discontinuity points is of measure zero.
