\section{\defined{Characteristic Function}}%
\label{sec:def-characteristic-function}
Let $S$ be a set of points on the real line.
The \textbf{characteristic function} of $S$ is the function $\mathcal{X}_S$ such
that $\mathcal{X}_S(x) = 1$ for every $x$ in $S$, and $\mathcal{X}_S(x) = 0$
for those $x$ not in $S$.

A number $B$ is called an \textbf{infimum} of a nonempty set $S$ if $B$ has
the following two properties:
\begin{enumerate}[(a)]
\item $B$ is a lower bound for $S$.
\item No number greater than $B$ is a lower bound for $S$.

Let $P$ be a \nameref{sec:def-partition} of closed interval $[a, b]$.
A \textbf{refinement} $P'$ of $P$ is a partition formed by adjoining more
subdivision points to those already in $P$.
$P'$ is said to be \textbf{finer than} $P$. The union of two partitions $P_1$
and $P_2$ is called the \textbf{common refinement} of $P_1$ and $P_2$.

That is to say, for each $k = 1, 2, \ldots, n$, there is a real number $s_k$
such that $$s(x) = s_k \quad\text{if}\quad x_{k-1} < x < x_k.$$
