  2. Continuous function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_function

    This notion of continuity is the same as topological continuity when the partially ordered sets are given the Scott topology. [ 19 ] [ 20 ] In category theory , a functor F : C → D {\displaystyle F:{\mathcal {C}}\to {\mathcal {D}}} between two categories is called continuous if it commutes with small limits .

  3. Limit (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, a limit is the value that a function (or sequence) approaches as the argument (or index) approaches some value. [1] Limits of functions are essential to calculus and mathematical analysis, and are used to define continuity, derivatives, and integrals.

  4. Function of several real variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_of_several_real...

    The image of a function f(x 1, x 2, …, x n) is the set of all values of f when the n-tuple (x 1, x 2, …, x n) runs in the whole domain of f.For a continuous (see below for a definition) real-valued function which has a connected domain, the image is either an interval or a single value.

  5. Real analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_analysis

    In mathematics, the branch of real analysis studies the behavior of real numbers, sequences and series of real numbers, and real functions. [1] Some particular properties of real-valued sequences and functions that real analysis studies include convergence, limits, continuity, smoothness, differentiability and integrability.

  6. Smoothness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoothness

    A bump function is a smooth function with compact support.. In mathematical analysis, the smoothness of a function is a property measured by the number of continuous derivatives (differentiability class) it has over its domain.

  7. Modulus of continuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulus_of_continuity

    A sublinear modulus of continuity can easily be found for any uniformly continuous function which is a bounded perturbation of a Lipschitz function: if f is a uniformly continuous function with modulus of continuity ω, and g is a k Lipschitz function with uniform distance r from f, then f admits the sublinear module of continuity min{ω(t), 2r ...

  8. Classification of discontinuities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification_of...

    The function in example 1, a removable discontinuity. Consider the piecewise function = {< = >. The point = is a removable discontinuity.For this kind of discontinuity: The one-sided limit from the negative direction: = and the one-sided limit from the positive direction: + = + at both exist, are finite, and are equal to = = +.

  9. Restriction (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restriction_(mathematics)

    The pasting lemma is a result in topology that relates the continuity of a function with the continuity of its restrictions to subsets. Let X , Y {\displaystyle X,Y} be two closed subsets (or two open subsets) of a topological space A {\displaystyle A} such that A = X ∪ Y , {\displaystyle A=X\cup Y,} and let B {\displaystyle B} also be a ...
