Integration by parts formula for the double Riemann-Stieltjes integral

In my research the following integration by parts formula for the double Riemann-Stieltjes integral $$\int\limits_{[a,b]\times[c,d]}f(x,y)\,dg(x,y)=f(b,d)g(b,d)-f(a,d)g(a,d)-f(b,c)g(b,c)+f(a,c)g(a,c)...

The function $G(x) =(4\pi t)^{-d/2} \int_{\mathbb{R}^d} e^{\frac{-|x-y|^2}{4t}}|y|^k dy$ can be controlled when $|x|\rightarrow \infty$

In this paper, Lemma 6, Pinsky proves that $$H(x) =(4\pi t)^{-d/2} \int_{\mathbb{R}^d} e^{\frac{-|x-y|^2}{4t}}(1+|y|)^m \, dy$$ attains its maximum in $x=0$ for $m<0$. This can also be proven using ...

Are “most” bounded derivatives not Riemann integrable?

Given $a,b\in\mathbb R$ with $a<b$. Let $$X=\{f\in C([a,b]): f \text{ is differentiable on } [a,b] \text{ with }f' \text{ bounded }\},$$ and $$A=\{f\in X: f' \text{ is Riemann integrable}\}. $$ It ...

Reference request for type of specific integral equation in two variable:

Consider the following integral equation: $$\int_0^\infty K(t,y)\phi(t,x)dt=0$$ Here, $K(t,y)$ is a trigonometric kernel and $\phi(t,x)$ is monotonic wrt $x$ ( for fixed $t$). I want to find the ...

From Zurab's integral representation for the Apéry's constant to almost impossible integrals

I would like to know if the following integrals are known, or in case that aren't in the literature we can calculate these in closed-form (in terms of elementary and standard functions). I wondered ...
