First-order singular and discontinuous differential equations.
A roller coaster approach to integration and Peano's existence theorem
This is a didactic proposal on how to introduce the Newton integral in just three or four sessions in elementary courses. Our motivation for this paper were Talvila's work on the continuous primitive integral and Koliha's general approach to the Newton integral. We introduce it independently of any other integration theory, so some basic results require somewhat nonstandard proofs. As an instance, showing that continuous functions on compact intervals are Newton integrable (or, equivalently, that...
