Composite of non Riemann integrable functions can be Riemann integrable?












1












$begingroup$


(1) Let $f,g$ be not Riemann integrable on $[a,b]$, and the range of $f$ is $[a,b]$ also. Can we find an example such that $gcirc f(x)=g(f(x))$ is Riemann integrable on $[a,b]$?



(2) Let $f,g$ be Riemann integrable on $[a,b]$, and the range of $f$ is $[a,b]$ also. Can we show that $gcirc f$ is Riemann integrable on  $[a,b]$ also?

For question 1, $$f(x)=g(x)=
left{
begin{array}{ll}
x, &xin mathbb{Q} \
1-x,&xnotin mathbb{Q} \
end{array}
right.
\$$
and $[a,b]=[0,1]$.



For question 2, see here.
In order to change the range of $f$, alter it to
$$ f(x) = begin{cases} 1/q & text{ for }x=p/qtext{ and $0le xle1/2$} \ 0 & text{ for } x notin mathbb{Q}text{ and $0le xle1/2$}\
2x-1 & text{others} end{cases}
$$
and the $g$ desired is the $f$ in my link.

    @Chen What is the outer function and the inner function? It really troubles me.

  • $begingroup$
    In math.stackexchange.com/questions/1060834/…, the inner function is the Riemann function, whose range is not all of $[0,1]$, and the $f$ is the outer function, which seems you have changed to be here.

    It is not hard to alter the inner function. Try to do it yourself. Anyway I edited it for correctness.
