Chernyatin, V. A new necessary condition for existence of the Stieltjes integral. (English) Zbl 1060.26012 Real Anal. Exch. 30(2004-2005), No. 1, 207-216 (2005). Summary: The paper is devoted to establishing a necessary condition for the existence of the Riemann-Stieltjes integral of continuous functions and simultaneously to finding a limit form of its relationship with the classical Riemann integral depending on a parameter. The technique for this study is based on changing the weighted first difference of a given function into the simple difference of a function determined by a first-order difference equation.
