  2. Absolute continuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_continuity

    A continuous function fails to be absolutely continuous if it fails to be uniformly continuous, which can happen if the domain of the function is not compact – examples are tan(x) over [0, π/2), x 2 over the entire real line, and sin(1/x) over (0, 1]. But a continuous function f can

  3. Continuous function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_function

    An extreme example: if a set X is given the discrete topology (in which every subset is open), all functions : to any topological space T are continuous. On the other hand, if X is equipped with the indiscrete topology (in which the only open subsets are the empty set and X) and the space T set is at least T 0, then the only continuous ...

  4. Topologist's sine curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topologist's_sine_curve

    Two variants of the topologist's sine curve have other interesting properties. The closed topologist's sine curve can be defined by taking the topologist's sine curve and adding its set of limit points, {(,) [,]}; some texts define the topologist's sine curve itself as this closed version, as they prefer to use the term 'closed topologist's sine curve' to refer to another curve.

  5. Sinc function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinc_function

    The sinc function as audio, at 2000 Hz (±1.5 seconds around zero) In mathematics, the historical unnormalized sinc function is defined for x ≠ 0 by ⁡ = ⁡.. Alternatively, the unnormalized sinc function is often called the sampling function, indicated as Sa(x).

  6. Bounded variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounded_variation

    The function f(x) = sin(1/x) is not of bounded variation on the interval [, /]. As mentioned in the introduction, two large class of examples of BV functions are monotone functions, and absolutely continuous functions. For a negative example: the function

  7. Intermediate value theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermediate_value_theorem

    The intermediate value theorem says that every continuous function is a Darboux function. However, not every Darboux function is continuous; i.e., the converse of the intermediate value theorem is false. As an example, take the function f : [0, ∞) → [−1, 1] defined by f(x) = sin(1/x) for x > 0 and f(0) = 0.

  8. Lipschitz continuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipschitz_continuity

    In this case, Y is the set of real numbers R with the standard metric d Y (y 1, y 2) = |y 1 − y 2 |, and X is a subset of R. In general, the inequality is (trivially) satisfied if x 1 = x 2. Otherwise, one can equivalently define a function to be Lipschitz continuous if and only if there exists a constant K ≥ 0 such that, for all x 1x 2,
