Which integrable functions fail to be absolutely integrable?
In the present paper, the author considers a natural question: if we consider real-valued functions defined on an interval \([a,b]\), is it possible to construct examples of Riemann integrable but not absolutely integrable functions? Independently of that one thinks that the answer should be positive, the author establishes that in some way, the answer is ``no. More precisely, the following result is proved: assume that \(f:[a,b]\to \mathbb{R}\) is an integrable but not absolutely integrable function. Then there exists a strictly monotone sequence \(\{{{t}_{n}}\}\subset [a,b]\) such that the series \(\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty }{\int\limits_{{{t}_{n}}}^{{{t}_{n+1}}}{f(x)dx}}\) is convergent but not absolutely convergent.
