\section{Improper and Lebesgue Integrals} \begin{theorem}[\textbf{Hake's Theorem}] If $f:[a,b] \to \R$, then $f \in \mathcal{R}^*[a,b]$ if and only if for every $\gamma \in (a,b)$ the restriction of $f$ to $[a,\gamma]$ belongs to $\mathcal{R}^*[a,\gamma]$ and \[\lim\limits_{\gamma \to b^-}\displaystyle\int_{a}^{\gamma}f=A\in\R\] In this case $\displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}f=A$. \end{theorem} \begin{definition} A function $f \in \mathcal{R}^*[a,b]$ such that $|f| \in \mathcal{R}^*[a,b]$ is said to be \textbf{Lebesgue integrable} on $[a,b]$. The collection of all Lebesgue integrable functions on $[a,b]$ is denoted by $\mathcal{L}[a,b]$. \end{definition} \begin{theorem}[\textbf{Comparison Test}] If $f,\omega \in \mathcal{R}^*[a,b]$ and $|f(x)| \leq \omega(x)$ for all $x \in [a,b]$, then $f \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$ and \[\abs{\displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}f}\leq\displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}|f| \leq\displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}\omega\] \end{theorem} \begin{theorem} If $f,g \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$ and if $c \in \R$, then $cf$ and $f+g$ also belong to $\mathcal{L}[a,b]$. Moreover \[\displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}cf=c\displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}f\ \ \text{ and }\ \ \displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}|f+g|\leq\displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}|f|+\displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}|g|\] \end{theorem} \begin{theorem} If $f \in \mathcal{R}^*[a,b]$, the following assertions are equivalent: \begin{enumerate} \item $f \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$. \item There exists $\omega \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$ such that $f(x)\leq\omega(x)$ for all $x \in [a,b]$. \item There exists $\alpha \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$ such that $\alpha(x) \leq f(x)$ for all $x \in [a,b]$. \end{enumerate} \end{theorem} \begin{theorem} If $f,g \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$, then the functions $\max \{f,g\}$ and $\min \{f,g\}$ also belong to $\mathcal{L}[a,b]$. \end{theorem} \begin{theorem} Suppose that $f,g,\alpha,$ and $\omega$ belong to $\mathcal{R}^*[a,b]$. If \[f\leq\omega,\ g\leq\omega\ \ \text{ or if }\ \ \alpha\leq f,\ \alpha \leq g,\] then $\max \{f,g\}$ and $\min\{f,g\}$ also belong to $\mathcal{R}^*[a,b]$. \end{theorem} \begin{definition} If $f \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$, we define the \textbf{seminorm} of $f$ to be \[||f||:=\displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}|f|\] If $f,g \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$, we define the \textbf{distance between $f$ and $g$} to be \[\text{dist}(f,g):=||f-g||=\displaystyle\int_{a}^{b}|f-g|\] \end{definition} \begin{theorem} The seminorm function satisfies: \begin{enumerate} \item $||f||\geq 0$ for all $f \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$. \item If $f(x)=0$ for $x \in [a,b]$, then $||f||=0$. \item If $f \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$ and $c \in \R$, then $||cf||=|c|\cdot||f||$. \item If $f,g \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$, then $||f+g||\leq||f||+||g||$. \end{enumerate} \end{theorem} \begin{theorem} The distance function satisfies: \begin{enumerate} \item $\dist(f,g)\geq 0$ for all $f,g \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$. \item If $f(x)=g(x)$ for $x \in [a,b]$, then $\dist(f,g)=0$. \item $\dist(f,g)=\dist(g,f)$ for all $f,g \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$. \item $\dist(f,h)\leq\dist(f,g)+\dist(g,h)$ for all $f,g,h \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$. \end{enumerate} \end{theorem} \begin{theorem}[\textbf{Completeness Theorem}] A sequence $(f_n)$ of functions in $\mathcal{L}[a,b]$ converges to a function $f \in \mathcal{L}[a,b]$ if and only if it has the property that for every $\varepsilon>0$ there exists $H(\varepsilon)$ such that if $m,n\geq H(\varepsilon)$, then \[||f_m-f_n||=\dist(f_m,f_n)<\varepsilon\] \end{theorem}
