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 …
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 …
Understanding Lipschitz Continuity - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Jul 28, 2017 · I have heard of functions being Lipschitz Continuous several times in my classes yet I have never really seemed to understand exactly what this concept really is. Here is the definition. …
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 …
real analysis - If a sequence of continuous functions converges ...
Mar 31, 2014 · If a sequence of continuous functions converges pointwise to a continuous function on $ [a,b] $, it converges uniformly. Looking at other theorems on the relationship between continuity and …
Why is $e^ {x}$ not uniformly continuous on $\mathbb {R}$?
Another way to prove that $e^ {x}$ is not uniformly continuous on $\mathbb {R}$ using an $\varepsilon$ - $\delta$ argument is to consider a fairly rigid consequence of this class of functions by means of …
Absolutely continuous functions - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Sep 5, 2012 · This might probably be classed as a soft question. But I would be very interested to know the motivation behind the definition of an absolutely continuous function. To state "A real valued …
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 uniformly …
Is derivative always continuous? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Jul 21, 2020 · Is the derivative of a differentiable function always continuous? My intuition goes like this: If we imagine derivative as function which describes slopes of (special) tangent lines to points on a ...
Is the set of non-differentiable points for a singular continuous ...
In view of the correspondence of nondecreasing functions with positive measures, singular continuous functions correspond to singular continuous measures, i.e. an atomless positive Borel measures …
