Mar 11, 2020 at 13:19 comment added Mateusz Kwaśnicki No, it is perfectly sufficient to have $f'$ strictly monotone (by assumption) and continuous (by monotonicity and intermediate value property). This becomes fairly straightforward if written as the limit of Riemann–Stieltjes sums.
Mar 11, 2020 at 13:13 comment added Hair80 Writing $df'(s)$ in the first line does not imply that $f'$ is differentiable?
Mar 11, 2020 at 11:23 comment added Mateusz Kwaśnicki (1) $f(x) = 0$ for $x \ne 0$, $f(0) = 1$ has no antiderivative (and it is Riemann-integrable, by the way). (2) Every continuous function clearly has an anti-derivative. (3) Using the Riemann–Stieltjes integral and integration by parts, we have $$\begin{aligned} \int (f')^{-1}(s) ds & = \int x df'(x) \\& = xf'(x) - \int f'(x) dx = xf'(x) - f(x) + C \\& = s(f')^{-1}(s)-f((f')^{-1}(s)) + C.\end{aligned}$$
