The function is not Lebesgue integrable. Fix and restrict to , . There . Tonelli's theorem for the nonnegative absolute value gives the lower boundThe last integral diverges. Indeed, on , ; each such interval contributes at least a positive constant times . The harmonic series diverges. Hence the integral of is infinite, regardless of possible signed cancellations. One cannot infer Lebesgue integrability by formally applying Fubini's theorem to the oscillatory integrand.
