"Lebesgue integral" meaning in English

See Lebesgue integral in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ləˈbɛːɡ ˈɪntəɡɹəl/ [US], /ləˈbɛːɡ ˈɪntəɡɹl̩/ [US] Forms: Lebesgue integrals [plural]
Etymology: Named after Henri Lebesgue, a French mathematician. Head templates: {{en-noun}} Lebesgue integral (plural Lebesgue integrals)
  1. (mathematical analysis, singular only, definite and countable) An integral which has more general application than that of the Riemann integral, because it allows the region of integration to be partitioned into not just intervals but any measurable sets for which the function to be integrated has a sufficiently narrow range. (Formal definitions can be found at PlanetMath).
