A note on Cauchy integrability

Abstract

We show that for any bounded function f:[a,b]Rf:[a,b]\rightarrow{\mathbb R} and ϵ>0\epsilon>0 there is a partition PP of [a,b][a,b] with respect to which the Riemann sum of ff using right endpoints is within ϵ\epsilon of the upper Darboux sum of ff. This leads to an elementary proof of the theorem of Gillespie \cite{G} showing that Cauchy's and Riemann's definitions of integrability coincide.
