  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 those …

  2. real analysis - Are Continuous Functions Always Differentiable ...

    Oct 26, 2010 · An interesting fact is that most (i.e. a co-meager set of) continuous functions are nowhere differentiable. The proof is a consequence of the Baire Category theorem and can be found (as an …

  3. Prove that $a^x$ is continuous - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    May 11, 2015 · It can be shown that for any 2 functions f and g, if f is continuous on R and g is a linear function with nonzero slope, f ∘ g is continuous so for any positive real number a, if exp (x) is …

  4. 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 rephrased) : A …

  5. The graph of a continuous function is a topological manifold

    Sep 18, 2024 · That the preimage of every basis element is open is sufficient for the inverse function to be continuous is seen on page 103 of Munkres' second ed. of Topology. I hope this makes your life …

  6. Showing that $\arctan$ is continuous - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Jan 5, 2016 · As such, $\arctan$ is continuous. If you define $\arctan$ by integrals or power series the result is immediate (the first by the Lipshitz continuity of the indefinite integral and the second from …

  7. 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.

  8. Prove that the function $\sqrt x$ is uniformly continuous on $\ {x\in ...

    Nov 17, 2013 · @user1742188 It follows from Heine-Cantor Theorem, that a continuous function over a compact set (In the case of $\mathbb {R}$, compact sets are closed and bounded) is uniformly …

  9. real analysis - Prove that every convex function is continuous ...

    The authors prove the proposition that every proper convex function defined on a finite-dimensional separated topological linear space is continuous on the interior of its effective domain. You can likely …

  10. Graphing Continuous Functions - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Jul 14, 2012 · My question is How do I graph a continuous function when I am only given restrictions? For example, Sketch the graph of a function that is continuous everywhere except at x=3, and is …
