Note that ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ x sin x ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ≥ 2 ( n + 6 5 ) π 1 > 2 π ( n + 1 ) 1 ( n + 6 1 ) π ≤ x ≤ ( n + 6 5 ) π for any integer n ≥ 0 . Thus we deduce that ∫ n π ( n + 1 ) π ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ x sin x ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ d x ≥ 2 ( n + 1 ) π 1 × 3 2 π = 3 ( n + 1 ) 1 for any integer n ≥ 0 .
If x sin x is Lebesgue integrable over R , then so is ∣ ∣ x sin x ∣ ∣ , and hence n = 0 ∑ N − 1 3 ( n + 1 ) 1 ≤ n = 0 ∑ N − 1 ∫ n π ( n + 1 ) π ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ x sin x ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ d x = ∫ 0 N π ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ x sin x ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ d x ≤ ∫ 0 ∞ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ x sin x ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ d x for all integers N ≥ 1 . But this means that n = 1 ∑ N n − 1 ≤ 3 ∫ 0 ∞ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ x sin x ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ d x for all positive integers N , which would imply that the infinite series ∑ n = 1 ∞ n − 1 converged, which is does not. Thus the function x sin x is not Lebesgue integrable on R .
