We study the existence of Riemann-Stieltjes integrals of bounded functions against a given integrator. We are also concerned with the possibility of computing the resulting integrals by means of related Riemann integrals. In particular, we…

Integrating with respect to functions which are constant on intervals whose bounds are discontinuity points (of those functions) is frequent in many branches of Mathematics, specially in stochastic processes. For such functions and alike…
