  1. Continuous vs Discrete Variables - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 14, 2025 · Both discrete and continuous variables generally do have changing values—and a discrete variable can vary continuously with time. I am quite aware that discrete variables are …

  2. Continuous group actions - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 18, 2025 · I was recently going through General Topology by N. Bourbaki, and found the following definition of topological groups acting continuously on topological spaces (slightly …

  3. Proof of Continuous compounding formula - Mathematics Stack …

    12 Following is the formula to calculate continuous compounding A = P e^(RT) Continuous Compound Interest Formula where, P = principal amount (initial investment) r = annual interest …

  4. Difference between continuity and uniform continuity

    Jan 27, 2014 · To understand the difference between continuity and uniform continuity, it is useful to think of a particular example of a function that's continuous on $\mathbb R$ but not …

  5. Is the projection function in a normed space continuous?

    Dec 26, 2025 · Let (X, n) (X, n) be normed space and B B a basis (by basis I mean a set of vector such that every vector in X can be expressed in an essentially unique way as a finite linear …

  6. real analysis - Why are the rational numbers not continuous ...

    Apr 3, 2022 · So you can have continuous functions defined over rationals; but the rationals are not a continuum. Why not? The notion of a continuum has its roots in geometry, and -- in the …

  7. Can a function have partial derivatives, be continuous but not be ...

    Sep 18, 2020 · By differentiability theorem if partial derivatives exist and are continuous in a neighborhood of the point then (i.e. sufficient condition) the function is differentiable at that point.

  8. Meaning of the continuous spectrum and the residual spectrum

    Jan 8, 2017 · The reason one refers to this as "continuous spectrum" Historically had nothing to do with continuity; such spectrum was found to fill a continuum, rather than being discrete.

  9. What does it mean that "every metric is continuous"?

    Jun 11, 2025 · 6 "Every metric is continuous" means that a metric $d$ on a space $X$ is a continuous function in the topology on the product $X \times X$ determined by $d$.

  10. What is a continuous stochastic process? - Mathematics Stack …

    Aug 4, 2022 · Isn't this violating the definition of continuous stochastic process or is it that I have to keep $\omega$ constant throught out the process ? Also, is $\omega$ in the definition of …
