What is the intuition for semi-continuous functions?
A function is continuous if the preimage of every open set is an open set. (This is the definition in topology and is the "right" definition in some sense.) The definitions you cite of semicontinuities claim …

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 …
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 …
Topological properties preserved by continuous maps
You'll find topological properties with indication of whether they are preserved by (various kinds of) continuous maps or not (such as open maps, closed maps, quotient maps, perfect maps, etc.). For …
Why is the determinant continuous? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Here you want to refer to the topology of the latter as a normed space, which does not depend on the norm since they are all equivalent in finite dimension. Then the determinant is a polynomial in the …
The definition of continuous function in topology
Mar 7, 2013 · 22 I am self-studying general topology, and I am curious about the definition of the continuous function. I know that the definition derives from calculus, but why do we define it like …
Why not include as a requirement that all functions must be …
Jun 20, 2018 · We know that differentiable functions must be continuous, so we define the derivative to only be in terms of continuous functions. But then, the fact that differentiable functions are …
