The real case is homogeneity of the integral; the case c = ∞ follows from the monotone convergence theorem applied to the multiples kf, which increase to ∞f.

Proof

Real cc. If c≠∞c\neq\infty, then cc is a real number with c≥0c\ge0, and the claim is Basic Properties of the Integral of Nonnegative Measurable Maps (iv) with h=cfh=cf.

The case c=∞c=\infty. For k∈Nk\in\mathbb{N} let fk=kff_{k}=kf. By the real case, fk∈M+f_{k}\in\mathcal{M}^{+} and ∫Xfk dμ=k∫Xf dμ\int_{X}f_{k}\,d\mu=k\int_{X}f\,d\mu. Let x∈Xx\in X. Since k≤k+1k\le k+1, Arithmetic in [0,∞]: Monoid Laws, Distributivity, Monotonicity and Cancellation (iv) gives fk(x)=k f(x)≤(k+1) f(x)=fk+1(x)f_{k}(x)=k\,f(x)\le(k+1)\,f(x)=f_{k+1}(x). Moreover N⊆[0,∞]\mathbb{N}\subseteq[0,\infty] is not bounded above in R\mathbb{R} (Infima, the Archimedean Property, Density of the Rationals and Rational Approximation from Below in an Ordered Field Whose Nonempty Sets Bounded Above Have Suprema (ii)), so sup⁡N=∞\sup\mathbb{N}=\infty by Order and Suprema in the Extended Real Line (v), and with the commutativity of the product (Arithmetic in [0,∞]: Monoid Laws, Distributivity, Monotonicity and Cancellation (ii)) and Suprema and Finite Sums in [0,∞] (ii),

sup⁡kfk(x)=sup⁡{f(x) k:k∈N}=f(x)⋅sup⁡N=∞⋅f(x)=(∞f)(x).\sup_{k}f_{k}(x)=\sup\{f(x)\,k:k\in\mathbb{N}\}=f(x)\cdot\sup\mathbb{N}=\infty\cdot f(x)=(\infty f)(x).

So the functions fkf_{k} increase pointwise to ∞f\infty f, and the monotone convergence theorem, Monotone Convergence Theorem (i) and Monotone Convergence Theorem (ii), gives ∞f∈M+\infty f\in\mathcal{M}^{+} and

∫X∞f dμ=sup⁡k∫Xfk dμ=sup⁡k(k∫Xf dμ)=∞⋅∫Xf dμ,\int_{X}\infty f\,d\mu=\sup_{k}\int_{X}f_{k}\,d\mu=\sup_{k}\Bigl(k\int_{X}f\,d\mu\Bigr)=\infty\cdot\int_{X}f\,d\mu ,

the last equality by the same computation with ∫Xf dμ\int_{X}f\,d\mu in place of f(x)f(x).
