Example of $f,g: [0,1]to[0,1]$ and Riemann-integrable, but $gcirc f$ is not?












4












$begingroup$


Give me an example of two Riemann-integrable functions $f,g:[0,1]to[0,1]$ such that $gcirc f$ isn't integrable!
I already know the following example:
$$f(x)=begin{cases}
0, & text{if $x$ is irrational} \
1, & text{if $x=0$}\
frac1q, & text{if $x$ is rational and $x=frac pq$ such that $qinBbb N$ and $(p,q)=1$} \
end{cases}$$
$$g(x) =
begin{cases}
1, & text{if $x$ is of the form $frac 1q$such that $qin Bbb N$} \
0, & text{otherwise} \
end{cases}$$
now observe that $gcirc f$ is a famous example of non-integrable function!

    As it turns out, this particular $f$ and $g$ are not a great example--when you extend the definition of the integral to include more functions, $g circ f$ integrates fine.

More simply, sticking with the same $f$ you may consider
$$g(x) =
