  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. 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 …

  3. Is every continuously differentiable function also absolutely continuous?

    Mar 6, 2021 · If it's continuously differentiable then it's continuous. All continuous functions are absolutely continuous on a compact set.

  4. 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 …

  5. 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 …

  6. Can a function have partial derivatives, be continuous but not be ...

    Sep 18, 2020 · By differentiability theorem if partial derivatives exist and are continuous in a neighborhood of the point then (i.e. sufficient condition) the function is differentiable at that point.

  7. How does the existence of a limit imply that a function is uniformly ...

    Then the theorem that says that any continuous function on a compact set is uniformly continuous can be applied. The arguments above are a workaround this.

  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. calculus - Are all continuous one one functions differentiable ...

    Apr 14, 2015 · Which is continuous and one-to-one on $\mathbb R$, but is not differentiable at $0$. This is of course just one example, but in general, any time you "stick" two functions together at a point …

  10. What's the fastest way to tell if a function is uniformly continuous or ...

    On the smaller closed interval the derivative is bounded; on the entire open interval the function does have vertical asymptotes and cannot be uniformly continuous. Re Dan Fisher's example of $\sqrt x …
