The Riemann-Stieltjes integral is a generalization of the ordinary Riemann integral, named for the mathematicians Bernhard Riemann and Thomas Joannes Stieltjes, whose definition of the integral was first published by Stieltjes in 1894. It serves as an instructive and useful precursor to the Lebesgue integral and is a valuable tool for unifying equivalent forms of statistical theorems that apply to both discrete and continuous probability.

Is Kind Of Object
Entity-backed identity for the object-kind enum value this mathematical object already carries, resolved to a mathematics concept by an explicit value-to-entity map (phase 3 bucket conversion, docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md). The object-kind fact itself stays on the object unchanged.
