Lebesgue measure vs Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure
$begingroup$
Reading advanced probability theory book I've come across Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure. Could someone explain what is the difference between it and "standard" Lebesgue measure on $mathbb{R}$? Thank you.

Lebesgue integral: $int f(x);dx$. Lebesgue-Stieltjes integral: $int f(x);dg(x)$.

It can be proven that for any increasing right-contineous function $F:mathbb{R}rightarrow mathbb{R}$ there exist one and only one measure $mu_F$ on $(mathbb{R},mathcal{B}(mathbb{R}))$ satisfying the property:
$$ mu_F((a,b])=F(b)-F(a) $$
for every interval (a,b] with $a<b$.
$mu_F$ is called the Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure belonging to F. The Lebesgue measure is simply the Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure belonging to the identity function.
