To do this, recall the \textit{Nonuniform Continuity Criteria}: \begin{theorem*}[\textbf{Nonuniform Continuity Criteria}] Let $A \subseteq \R$ and let $f:A \rightarrow \R$. Then the following statements are equivalent: \begin{enumerate} \item $f$ is not uniformly continuous on $A$. \item There exists an $\varepsilon_0 > 0$ such that for every $\delta > 0$ there are points $x_\delta, u_\delta$ in $A$ such that $|x_\delta - u_\delta|<\delta$ and $|f(x_\delta) - f(u_\delta)| \geq \varepsilon_0$. \item There exists an $\varepsilon_0 > 0$ and two sequences $(x_n)$ and $(u_n)$ in $A$ such that $\lim (x_n - u_n)=0$ and $|f(x_n)-f(u_n)|\geq \varepsilon_0=1$ for all $n \in \N$. \end{enumerate} \end{theorem*} So, let $(x_n), (u_n) \subseteq \R$ be given by $x_n:=2n\pi$, and $u_n:=2n\pi + \frac{1}{n}$ for $n \in \N$. Then we have that \[(x_n-u_n)=2n\pi - (2n\pi + \frac{1}{n})=-\frac{1}{n}\] and thus \[\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} (x_n-u_n)=\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} -\frac{1}{n} = 0\] Now we have the following: \begin{align*} |(fg)(x_n) - (fg)(u_n)| &= \abs{2n\pi \sin (2n\pi) - \left(2n\pi+\frac{1}{n}\right)\sin \left(2n\pi + \frac{1}{n}\right)} \\ &=\abs{2n\pi \cdot 0 - \left(2n\pi + \frac{1}{n}\right) \sin \left(2n\pi + \frac{1}{n}\right)} \\ &=\abs{-\left(2n\pi + \frac{1}{n}\right) \sin \left(2n\pi + \frac{1}{n}\right)} \\ &= \left(2n\pi + \frac{1}{n}\right) \sin \left(2n\pi + \frac{1}{n}\right) \\ &= \left(2n\pi + \frac{1}{n}\right) \sin \left(\frac{1}{n}\right) & \because\ \sin(2n\pi) = 0\ \forall\ n \in \N \\ &= 2n\pi \sin \left(\frac{1}{n}\right) + \left(\frac{1}{n}\right) \sin \left(\frac{1}{n}\right) \end{align*} Note that $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{n}=0$ and $\left(\sin \left(\frac{1}{n}\right)\right)$ is a bounded sequence in $\R$. Then \[\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{n} \sin \frac{1}{n} = 0\] and \[\lim\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin (x)}{x}=1\ \forall\ x \in \R\] This yields \[\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} 2n\pi \sin \left(\frac{1}{n}\right) = 2\pi \lim\limits_{\frac{1}{n} \to 0} \frac{\sin \left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}{\frac{1}{n}}=2\pi\] Thus $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} ((fg)(x_n) - (fg)(u_n)) = 2\pi$.\\ Let $\varepsilon=\pi$. Then $\exists\ k \in \N \st \forall\ n \geq k$: \begin{align*} 2\pi - \varepsilon < (fg)(x_n)-(fg)(u_n) &< 2\pi + \varepsilon \\ (fg)(x_n)-(fg)(u_n) &>\pi \\ |(fg)(x_n) - (fg)(u_n)| &> \pi \\ |(fg)(x_{n+k}) -(fg)(u_{n+k})| &> \pi \end{align*} Now, for $\varepsilon_0 = \pi$ and two sequences $(x_{n+k}), (u_{n+k})$, by the \textit{Nonuniform Continuity Criteria}, $(fg)$ is not uniformly continuous on $\R$.\\ %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Section 5.4 #10 %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item[10.] Prove that if $f$ is uniformly continuous on a bounded subset $A$ of $\R$, then $f$ is bounded on $A$. \begin{proof} Let $f$ be uniformly continuous on a bounded subset $A$ of $\R$. We want to show that $f$ is bounded on $A$.\\ Since $f$ is uniformly continuous, we know that $\forall\ \varepsilon > 0,\ \exists\ \delta > 0 \st \forall\ x,y \in A;\ |x-y|<\delta \implies |f(x)-f(y)|<\varepsilon$. We must find a constant $M>0 \st |f(x)|\leq M\ \forall\ x \in A$.\\ Let $\varepsilon>0$ be given, and let $\delta>0$ also be given.\\ Recall the definitions of a cover, open cover, subcover, and compactness: \theoremstyle{definition} \begin{definition*} Let $A$ be a subset of a topological space $X$. Let $\mathscr{U}=\{{U_\alpha}\cup_{\alpha \in J} U_\alpha\}$ be a collection of subsets of $X$. We say that $\mathscr{U}$ is a \textbf{cover} of $A$ if $A \subseteq \cup_{\alpha \in J} U_\alpha$. $\mathscr{U}$ is called an \textbf{open cover} of $A$ if $\mathscr{U}$ is a cover of $A$ and each element of $\mathscr{U}$ is open. If $\mathscr{U}$ is a cover of $A$, then any subset of $\mathscr{U}$ that is also a cover of $A$ is called a \textbf{subcover} of $A$. A space $X$ is \textbf{compact} if every open cover of $X$ has a finite subcover. \end{definition*} Also recall the following theorem: \begin{theorem*} A compact subset of a metric space is bounded. \end{theorem*} Since $A$ is a subset of $\R$ under the usual metric, defined $d(x,y):=|x-y|$, we have that $A$ is compact. Thus by the definition of compactness, we know that every open cover of $A$ has a finite subcover. In particular, we know that there are finitely many open balls of radius $\delta$. Thus \[\exists n \in \N \st A \subseteq \cup_{i=0}^n B_d(x_i, \delta),\ x_i \in A\] Recall the definition of an open ball: \theoremstyle{definition} \begin{definition*} Let $(M,d)$ be a metric space. Given $x \in M$ and a positive real number $\varepsilon$, the \textbf{open ball} centered at $x$ with radius $\varepsilon$ is \[B_d(x,\varepsilon) := \{y \in M\ |\ d(x,y)<\varepsilon\}\] \end{definition*} Now, define $m$ and $M$ as follows: \[m:= \min\limits_{1 \leq i \leq n} f(x_i),\ M:=\max\limits_{1 \leq i \leq n} f(x_i)\] Let $x \in A$ be arbitrary. Since $A$ is covered with balls $B_d(x_i,\delta)$, we know that $\exists\ x_j \in A \st x \in B_d(x_j, \delta)$. So, \[x \in B_d(x_j, \delta) \implies |x-x_j|<\delta \implies |f(x)-f(x_j)|<\varepsilon \iff -\varepsilon < f(x)-f(x_j)<\varepsilon\] By the definition of $M$, we know that $f(x_j) \leq M$, and thus $f(x)\leq M+\varepsilon$.\\ By the definition of $m$, we know that $f(x_j) \geq m$, and thus $f(x) \geq m-\varepsilon$.\\ $\therefore\ \forall\ x \in A,$ \[f(x) \in [m-\varepsilon, M+\varepsilon]\] $\therefore\ f$ is bounded on $A$.\\ \end{proof} \textbf{Alternative Proof:} \begin{proof} By way of contradiction, assume that $f(A)$ is unbounded. Then we know that there exists a sequence $x_n \in A \st |f(x_n)| \geq n\ \forall\ n$.\\ Since $(x_n)$ is bounded, we know that there exists a convergent subsequence $x_{n_k} \in A \st x_{n_k} \to x$. Now, since $f$ is uniformly continuous, we know that $f(x_{n_k}) \to f(x)$, which contradicts the fact that $f(A)$ is unbounded. Thus we have that if $f$ is uniformly continuous on $A$, then $f(A)$ is bounded as well. \end{proof} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Section 5.4 #14 %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item[14.] A function $f:\R \to \R$ is said to be \textbf{periodic} on $\R$ if there exists a number $p > 0$ such that $f(x+p)=f(x)$ for all $x \in \R$. Prove that a continuous periodic function on $\R$ is bounded and uniformly continuous on $\R$.\\ \begin{proof} Let $f$ be a continuous periodic function on $\R$. Then we know that $\exists\ p>0 \st f(x+p)=f(x)\ \forall\ x \in \R$. Recall \textit{Theorem 5.3.9}: \begin{theorem*} Let $I$ be a closed bounded interval and let $f:I \rightarrow \R$ be continuous on $I$. Then the set $f(I):= \{f(x): x \in I\}$ is a closed bounded interval. \end{theorem*} Also recall the \textit{Uniform Continuity Theorem}: \begin{theorem*}[\textbf{Uniform Continuity Theorem}] Let $I$ be a closed bounded interval and let $f:I \rightarrow \R$ be continuous on $I$. Then $f$ is uniformly continuous on $I$. \end{theorem*} We must first show that $f$ is bounded. Let $f:[0,p] \to \R$ be given by $f([0,p]):= f([np,(n+1)p])\ \forall\ n \in \Z$.\\ Since $[0,p]$ is a closed bounded interval, we know that by \textit{Theorem 5.3.9}, $f([0,p])$ is also a closed bounded interval. Thus we have that $f$ is bounded.\\ Now we must show that $f$ is uniformly continuous on $\R$. So, by the \textit{Uniform Continuity Theorem}, since $f$ is continuous on $[0,p]$ and since $[0,p]$ is a closed bounded interval, we have that $f$ is uniformly continuous on $[0,p]$. Since $f([0,p])=f([np,(n+1)p])$, we have that $f$ is uniformly continuous on $[np, (n+1)p]$ and thus we have that $f$ is uniformly continuous on $\R$.\\ \end{proof} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Section 5.4 #15 %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item[15.] Let $f$ and $g$ be Lipschitz functions on $A$. \begin{enumerate} \item[(a)] Show that the sum $f+g$ is also a Lipschitz function on $A$. \begin{proof} We want to show that $f+g$ is also a Lipschitz function on $A$.\\ Recall the definition of a Lipschitz function: \theoremstyle{definition} \begin{definition*} Let $A \subseteq \R$ and let $f:A \rightarrow \R$. If there exists a constant $K > 0$ such that \[|f(x)-f(u)| \leq K|x-u|\] for all $x,u \in A$, then $f$ is said to be a \textbf{Lipschitz function} (or to satisfy a \textbf{Lipschitz condition}) on $A$. \end{definition*} Since $f$ and $g$ are Lipschitz functions on $A$, we know that $\forall\ x,y \in A$: \[\exists\ M_1 > 0 \st |f(x)-f(y)| 0 \st |g(x)-g(y)| 0$ such that $|f(x)| \leq M$ for all $x \in A$. \end{definition*} So since $f$ and $g$ are bounded on $A$, we know \[\exists\ M_1 > 0 \st |f(x)| \leq M_1\ \forall\ x \in A\] \[\exists\ M_2 > 0 \st |g(x)| \leq M_2\ \forall\ x \in A\] And since $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ are Lipschitz, we know \[\exists\ K_1 \st |f(x)-f(u)|\leq K_1|x-u|\] \[\exists\ K_2 \st |g(x)-g(u) \leq K_2|x-u|\] We must show that $fg$ is Lipschitz. Let $x,y \in A$. Then \begin{align*} |(fg)(x)-(fg)(y)| &= |f(x)g(x)-f(y)g(y)| \\ &= |f(x)g(x)-f(x)g(y)+f(x)g(y)-f(y)g(y)| \\ &= |f(x)(g(x)-g(y))+ g(y)(f(x)-f(y))| \\ & \leq |f(x)(g(x)-g(y))| + |g(y)(f(x)-f(y))| \\ & = |f(x)| \cdot |g(x)-g(y)| + |g(y)| \cdot |f(x)-f(y)| \\ &< M_1 \cdot |g(x)-g(y)| + M_2 \cdot |f(x)-f(y)| \\ &< M_1K_1|x-y| + M_2K_2|x-y| \\ &= (M_1K_2+M_2K_1)|x-y| \end{align*} Thus we have that $|(fg)(x)-(fg)(y)|\leq (M_1K_1+M_2K_2)|x-y|\ \forall\ x,y \in A$. Therefore by the definition of a Lipschitz function, we have that $fg$ is Lipschitz.\\ \end{proof} \item[(c)] Give an example of a Lipschitz function $f$ on $[0, \infty)$ such that its square $f^2$ is \textit{not} a Lipschitz function.\\ Consider the function $f(x):=x$, where $x \geq 0$. Then we have that $\forall\ x,y \geq 0$: \[|f(x)-f(y)|=|x-y| \leq 2|x-y|\] Thus we have that $f(x)$ is Lipschitz on the interval $[0, \infty)$. However, note that $f^2$ is not Lipschitz since $f^2$ is unbounded. Thus $f^2$ cannot be a Lipschitz function. \end{enumerate} \end{enumerate} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Section 6.1 Questions %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item \textbf{Section 6.1} \begin{enumerate} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Section 6.1 #1ac %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item[1.] Use the definition to find the derivative of each of the following functions: \begin{enumerate} \item[(a)] $f(x):=x^3$ for $x \in \R$.\\ Recall the definition of the derivative: \theoremstyle{definition} \begin{definition*} Let $I \subseteq \R$ be an interval, let $f:I \rightarrow \R$, and let $ c \in I$. We say that a real number $L$ is the \textbf{derivative of $f$ at $c$} if given any $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $\delta (\varepsilon) > 0$ such that if $x \in I$ satisfies $0 < |x-c|<\delta (\varepsilon)$, then \[\abs{\frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c}-L}<\varepsilon.\] In this case we say that $f$ is \textbf{differentiable} at $c$, and we write $f'(c)$ for $L$. In other words, the derivative of $f$ at $c$ is given by the limit \[f'(c) = \lim_{x\to c} \frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c}\] provided this limit exists. (We allow the possibility that $c$ may be the endpoint of the interval.) \end{definition*} Let $h:=x-c$. Then $x=c+h$: \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{(x+h)^3-x^3}{h} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{h^3+3h^2x+3hx^2}{h} \\ &=\lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{h(h^2+3hx+3x^2)}{h} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} (h^2+3hx+3x^2) \\ &= 0^2 + 3 \cdot 0 \cdot x + 3x^2 \\ &= 0+0+3x^2 \\ &= 3x^2 \end{align*} Thus $f'(x) = 3x^2$.\\ \item[(c)] $h(x):=\sqrt{x}$ for $x>0$.\\ \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt{x}}{h} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt{x}}{h} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{x+h}+\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x+h}+\sqrt{x}} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{x+h-x}{h(\sqrt{x+h}+\sqrt{x})} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{h}{h(\sqrt{x+h}+\sqrt{x})} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{1}{\sqrt{x+h}+\sqrt{x}} \\ &= \frac{1}{\sqrt{x+0}+\sqrt{x}} \\ &= \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{x}} \\ &= \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} \end{align*} Thus $h'(x)=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}$.\\ \end{enumerate} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Section 6.1 #2 %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item[2.] Show that $f(x):=x^{1/3},\ x \in \R$ is not differentiable at $x=0$.\\ \begin{proof} We must show that $f(x)$ is not differentiable at $x=0$. By the definition of the derivative, the function $f(x)$ is differentiable at $x=0$ given that the limit exists. So, let's find the derivative at $x=0$: \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c} &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{f(x)-f(0)}{x-0} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{x^{\frac{1}{3}}-0^{\frac{1}{3}}}{x} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{x^{\frac{1}{3}}}{x} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0} x^{\frac{1}{3}-1} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0} x^{-\frac{2}{3}} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{1}{x^{\frac{2}{3}}} \\ &= \frac{1}{0^{\frac{2}{3}}} \\ &= \frac{1}{0} \\ &= \text{undefined} \end{align*} Since the limit is undefined when $x=0$, we have that the limit does not exist at $x=0$, and thus $f(x)$ is not differentiable at $x=0$.\\ \end{proof} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Section 6.1 #8a %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item[8. (a)] Determine where $f:\R \to \R$ given by $f(x):=|x|+|x+1|$ is differentiable and find the derivative.\\ We can redefine $f(x)$ as a piecewise function: \[f(x):=\begin{cases} 2x+1, & x \geq 0 \\ 1, & -1 \leq x < 0 \\ -2x - 1, & x < -1 \end{cases}\] Thus to find where $f(x)$ is differentiable, we will find the derivatives of each of the three functions defined above in the piecewise definition of $f(x)$.\\ For $x \geq 0$, we have \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{2(x+h)+1-(2x+1)}{h} \\ &=\lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{2x+2h-2x}{h} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{2h}{h} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} 2 \\ &= 2 \end{align*} Thus $f'(x)=2$ when $x \geq 0$.\\ For $-1 \leq x < 0$: \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c} &= \lim\limits_{x \to c} \frac{1-1}{x-c} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to c} \frac{0}{x-c} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to c} 0 \\ &= 0 \end{align*} Thus $f'(x)=0$ when $-1 \leq x < 0$.\\ For $x < -1$ we have: \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{(-2(x+h)-1)-(-2x-1)}{h} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{-2x-2h-1+2x+1}{h} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{-2h}{h} \\ &= \lim\limits_{h \to 0} -2 \\ &= -2 \end{align*} Thus $f'(x)=-2$ when $x < -1$.\\ Now, we must check for differentiability when $x=-1$ and when $x=0$.\\ So when $x=-1$: \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c} &= \lim\limits_{x \to -1^+} \frac{f(x)-f(-1)}{x+1} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to -1^+} \frac{1-1}{x+1} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to -1^+} \frac{0}{x+1} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to -1^+} 0 \\ &= 0 \end{align*} And \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c} &= \lim\limits_{x \to -1^-} \frac{f(x)-f(-1)}{x+1} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to -1^-} \frac{(-2x-1)-(2 \cdot (-1)-1)}{x+1} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to -1^-} \frac{-2x-1+3}{x+1} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to -1^-} \frac{-2x+2}{x+1} \\ &= -2 \end{align*} So we have that $f'(-1)$ does not exist since \[\lim\limits_{x \to -1^-} \frac{f(x)-f(-1)}{x+1}=0 \neq -2 = \lim\limits_{x \to -1^+} \frac{f(x)-f(-1)}{x+1}\] Now for when $x=0$: \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c} &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0^+} \frac{f(x)-f(0)}{x-0} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0^+} \frac{(2x+1)-(2 \cdot 0 +1)}{x} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0^+} \frac{2x}{x} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0^+} 2 \\ &= 2 \end{align*} And \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c} &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0^-} \frac{f(x)-f(0)}{x-0} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0^-} \frac{1-1}{x} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0^-} \frac{0}{x} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to 0^-} 0 \\ &= 0 \end{align*} So we have that $f'(0)$ does not exist since \[\lim\limits_{x \to 0^-} \frac{f(x)-f(0)}{x-0} = 0 \neq -2 = \lim\limits_{x \to 0^+} \frac{f(x)-f(0)}{x}\] Thus we have that the function is not differentiable at $x=0$ or at $x=-1$; That is, \[f'(x):=\begin{cases} 2, & x < 0 \\ 0, & -1 < x < 0 \\ -2, & x < -1 \\ \text{DNE} & x=1 \text{ or } x=0 \end{cases}\] %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Section 6.1 #9 %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item[9.] Prove that if $f:\R \to \R$ is an \textbf{even function} [that is, $f(-x)=f(x)$ for all $x \in \R$] and has a derivative at every point, then the derivative $f'$ is an \textbf{odd function} [that is, $f'(-x)=-f'(x)$ for all $x \in \R$].

We want to show that $f(c)=g(c)$ for some $c \in [a,b]$.\\ Let $h(x):=f(x)-g(x)$. Since both $f$ and $g$ are continuous, we know that $h$ is also continuous. And since $h$ is continuous, we know that $h(a)<0$, and $h(b)>0$.\\ Recall \textit{Bolzano's Intermediate Value Theorem}: \begin{theorem*}[\textbf{Bolzano's Intermediate Value Theorem}] Let $I$ be an interval and let $f:I \rightarrow \R$ be continuous on $I$. If $a,b \in I$ and if $k \in \R$ satisfies $f(a) < k \frac{u}{2}$. So, \begin{align*} |f(x)-f(u)| &= \abs{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{u}} \\ &= \abs{\frac{x-u}{xu}} \\ &= \frac{|x-u|}{xu} &\because\ x > 0,\ u>0,\ \forall\ x,u \in (0,2) \\ &< \frac{2|x-u|}{u \cdot u} &\because\ x > \frac{u}{2} \implies \frac{1}{x} < \frac{2}{u} \\ &= \frac{2|x-u|}{u^2} \\ &= \frac{2}{u^2}|x-u| \\ &< \varepsilon \end{align*} So $|x-u| < \frac{u^2\varepsilon}{2}$. Thus, let $\delta=\min\{\frac{u^2\varepsilon}{2},\frac{u}{2}\}$. Hence $f(x)$ is continuous on $(0,2)$.\\ Recall that in order for $f(x)$ to be considered uniformly continuous, $\forall\ \delta>0$ must always satisfy $|x-u|<\delta\ \forall\ \varepsilon > 0$. However, if we let $\varepsilon=1$, then we have that $\forall\ \delta>0$: \[x:=\min\{\delta, 1\},\ u:=\frac{x}{2} \implies |x-u|=\frac{x}{2}<\delta\] but \[\abs{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{u}} = \abs{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{2}{x}}=\abs{\frac{1}{x}} \geq 1 = \varepsilon\] Thus $f(x)$ is both bounded and continuous on $A:=(0,2)$, but $f(x)$ is not uniformly continuous.\\ %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Question 4 (b) %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item If $f$ is uniformly continuous on $A$, then $f$ is bounded on $A$.\\ This is a false statement.

Thus we have that $f(x)$ is uniformly continuous.

We prove it by way of contradiction: \begin{proof} Assume that $f$ is uniformly continuous on $(a,b)$, and suppose by way of contradiction that $f$ is not bounded on $(a,b)$. Then we have that $\forall\ n \in \N$, there exists a corresponding $f(x_n) \st |f(x_n)|>n$, where $x_n \in (a,b)$. By the \textit{Bolzano-Weirstrass Theorem}, there exists a convergent subsequence $(x_{n_k}) \subseteq (x_n)$.\\ Recall \textit{Lemma 3.5.2}: \begin{lemma*} If $X=(x_n)$ is a convergent sequence of real numbers, then $X$ is a Cauchy sequence. \end{lemma*} Thus by \textit{Lemma 3.5.2}, $(x_{n_k})$ is a Cauchy sequence.\\ Since $f$ is uniformly continuous on $(a,b)$, we know that $f(x_{n_k})$ is also Cauchy. However, this is a contradiction since $f(x_{n_k})$ is clearly divergent. Thus, we have that $f$ is bounded on $(a,b)$.\\ \end{proof} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Question 4 (d) %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item If $f$ is bounded on $A$, then $f$ is uniformly continuous on $A$.\\ This is a false statement. Consider $f:(0,2) \to \R$ given by $f(x):=\frac{1}{x}$. It is clear that $f$ is continuous in $(0,2)$ as it is the quotient of two polynomials and the denominator is never equal to 0. Let $x,u \in (0,2)$. First, suppose $x > \frac{u}{2}$. So, \begin{align*} |f(x)-f(u)| &= \abs{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{u}} \\ &= \abs{\frac{x-u}{xu}} \\ &= \frac{|x-u|}{xu} &\because\ x > 0,\ u>0,\ \forall\ x,u \in (0,2) \\ &< \frac{2|x-u|}{u \cdot u} &\because\ x > \frac{u}{2} \implies \frac{1}{x} < \frac{2}{u} \\ &= \frac{2|x-u|}{u^2} \\ &= \frac{2}{u^2}|x-u| \\ &< \varepsilon \end{align*} So $|x-u| < \frac{u^2\varepsilon}{2}$. Thus, let $\delta=\min\{\frac{u^2\varepsilon}{2},\frac{u}{2}\}$. Hence $f(x)$ is continuous on $(0,2)$.\\ Recall that in order for $f(x)$ to be considered uniformly continuous, $\forall\ \delta>0$ must always satisfy $|x-u|<\delta\ \forall\ \varepsilon > 0$. However, if we let $\varepsilon=1$, then we have that $\forall\ \delta>0$: \[x:=\min\{\delta, 1\},\ u:=\frac{x}{2} \implies |x-u|=\frac{x}{2}<\delta\] but \[\abs{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{u}} = \abs{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{2}{x}}=\abs{\frac{1}{x}} \geq 1 = \varepsilon\] Thus $f(x)$ is bounded on $A:=(0,2)$, but $f(x)$ is not uniformly continuous on $A$.\\ %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Question 4 (e) %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item The derivative of $f$ at $x=c$ is defined by $f'(c)=\lim\limits_{x \to c}\frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c}$ provided the limits exists.\\ This is true since this is the definition of the derivative.\\ %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Question 4 (f) %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item If $f$ is continuous at $c$, then $f$ is differentiable at $c$.\\ This is a false statement. Consider $f:\R \to \R$ given by \[f(x):=\begin{cases} \frac{1}{q} & x=\frac{p}{q},\ x \in \Q,\ p \in \Z,\ q \in \N \st \gcd (p,q)=1 \\ 0 & x \in \R \setminus \Q \end{cases}\] This is Thomae's function, which we know is continuous in the irrationals, and discontinuous in the rationals. So, we know that $f(c)$ is continuous at $c=\sqrt{2}$, but notice that $f$ is not differentiable at $c=\sqrt{2}$. In fact, $f$ is not differentiable for any values of $c$. We know that it's not differentiable when $x \in \Q$ since $f$ is not continuous for any value $x \in \Q$. As for our particular case where $c=\sqrt{2}$: \begin{align*} \lim\limits_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c} &= \lim\limits_{x \to \sqrt{2}} \frac{f(x)-f(\sqrt{2})}{x-\sqrt{2}} \\ &\Downarrow \\ x \in \Q &\implies x=\frac{p}{q},\ p \in \Z,\ q \in \N,\ \gcd (p,q)=1 \\ &\Downarrow \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \sqrt{2}} \frac{\frac{1}{q}-0}{x-0} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \sqrt{2}} \frac{\frac{1}{q}}{x} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \sqrt{2}} \frac{\frac{1}{q}}{\frac{p}{q}} &\because\ x=\frac{p}{q} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \sqrt{2}} \frac{q}{qp} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \sqrt{2}} \frac{1}{p} \\ &= \text{DNE} \end{align*} Thus the limit does not exist since it is a contradiction that as $x \to \sqrt{2},\ x \in \Q$, and since $\sqrt{2} \notin \Q$, it's impossible to substitute $\sqrt{2}$ for $x$. Additionally, since $p \in \Z$, $p$ can equal 0, and thus the function is undefined at this point, again rendering the limit non-existent. Thus $f$ is continuous at $c=\sqrt{2}$, but $f$ is not differentiable at $c=\sqrt{2}$.\\ %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Question 4 (g) %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item If $f$ is differentiable at $c$, then $f$ is continuous at $c$.\\ This is true by \textit{Theorem 6.1.2}: \begin{theorem*} If $f:I \rightarrow \R$ has a derivative at $c \in I$, then $f$ is continuous at $c$.\\ \end{theorem*} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%% Question 4 (h) %%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \item If $f$ is differentiable on $[a,b]$, then $f$ is uniformly continuous on $[a,b]$.\\ This is a true statement. \begin{proof} Let $f: [a,b] \to [a,b]$ be a function such that $f$ is differentiable $\forall\ x \in A$. Let $x,c \in A$, and without loss of generality, let $x \neq c$ (since $f$ is differentiable everywhere, $f$ is also differentiable at $c=0$.).\\ Recall \textit{Carathéodory's Theorem}: \begin{theorem*}[\textbf{Carathéodory's Theorem}] Let $f$ be defined on an interval $I$ containing the point $c$. Then $f$ is differentiable at $c$ if and only if there exists a function $\phi$ on $I$ that is continuous at $c$ and satisfies \[f(x)-f(c)=\phi (x)(x-c)\ \ \ \ \text{for}\ \ \ \ x \in I\] In this case, we have $\phi (c)=f'(c)$. \end{theorem*} Since $f$ is differentiable at all points, we know that $\exists\ \phi \st f(x)-f(c)=\phi(x)(x-c)$. Let $\phi$ be given by $\phi(x):= f'(c)$.\\ Also, recall the \textit{Mean Value Theorem}: \begin{theorem*}[\textbf{Mean Value Theorem}] Suppose that $f$ is continuous on a closed interval $I:=[a,b]$, and that $f$ has a derivative in the open interval $(a,b)$. Then there exists at least one point $c$ in $(a,b)$ such that \[f(b)-f(a)=f'(c)(b-a)\] \end{theorem*} Thus we have that $f'(c)=\frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c} \leq M$ since $f'(x) \leq M\ \forall\ x \in \R$. Thus $|x-c|<\frac{\varepsilon}{M}|f(x)-f(c)|<\varepsilon$. \begin{align*} |f(x)-f(c)|&=\lim\limits_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c} \cdot (x-c) \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to c} f(x)-f(c) \\ &< M \cdot \varepsilon \end{align*} Thus let $\delta = \frac{\varepsilon}{M}$.\\ Recall the definition of a \textit{Lipschitz Function}: \theoremstyle{definition} \begin{definition*} Let $A \subseteq \R$ and let $f:A \rightarrow \R$. If there exists a constant $K > 0$ such that \[(4)\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |f(x)-f(u)| \leq K|x-u|\] for all $x,u \in A$, then $f$ is said to be a \textbf{Lipschitz function} (or to satisfy a \textbf{Lipschitz condition}) on $A$.\\ The condition $(4)$ that a function $f: I \to \R$ on an interval $I$ is a Lipschitz function can be interpreted geometrically as follows. If we write the condition as \[\abs{\frac{f(x)-f(u)}{x-u}}\leq K,\ x,u \in I,\ x \neq u,\] then the quantity inside the absolute values is the slope of a line segment joining the points $(x,f(x))$ and $(u,f(u))$. Thus a function $f$ satisfies a Lipschitz condition if and only if the slopes of all line segments joining two points on the graph of $y=f(x)$ over $I$ are bounded by some number $K$. \end{definition*} If we let $M \delta=K$, we have that $f$ is a Lipschitz function.\\ Now, recall \textit{Theorem 5.4.3}: \begin{theorem} If $f:A \rightarrow \R$ is a Lipschitz function, then $f$ is uniformly continuous on $A$. \end{theorem} Also, recall the \textit{Continuous Extension Theorem}: \begin{theorem*}[\textbf{Continuous Extension Theorem}] A function $f$ is uniformly continuous on the interval $(a,b)$ if and only if it can be defined at the endpoints $a$ and $b$ such that the extended function is continuous on $[a,b]$. \end{theorem*} And recall \textit{Theorem 6.1.1}: \begin{theorem*} If $f:I \to \R$ has a derivative at $c \in I$, then $f$ is continuous at $c$. \end{theorem*} So, by \textit{Theorem 5.4.3} we have that $f$ is uniformly continuous.\\ By \textit{Theorem 6.1.1}, since $f$ is differentiable $\forall\ c \in [a,b]$, $f$ is continuous on $[a,b]$. \\ Thus by the \textit{Continuous Extension Theorem}, since $f$ is continuous on $[a,b]$, we have that $f$ is uniformly continuous on $(a,b)$.\\ Recall the \textit{Uniform Continuity Theorem}: \begin{theorem*}[\textbf{Uniform Continuity Theorem}] Let $I$ be a closed bounded interval and let $f:I \rightarrow \R$ be continuous on $I$.
