integration - anti-derivative not differentiable at any point


Reading about primitives and anti-derivatives, I noticed that primitive functions of non-continuous functions are not differentiable at some point, but the set of non-differentiability is often negligible.


I tried to think of a function horrible enough to get a non-differentiable antiderivative, and I found some with non-negligible set of non-differentiability points.


But I never found an antiderivative that is nowhere differentiable. Can you find one?


Answer



It isn't possible. Lebesgue's Differentiation Theorem states that if f is integrable over R, and we let:


F(x)=(,x]f(t)dt


Then F is almost everywhere differentiable.
