Two Examples Concerning Extendable And Almost Continuous Functions, Krzysztof Ciesielski
Two Examples Concerning Extendable And Almost Continuous Functions, Krzysztof Ciesielski
Faculty & Staff Scholarship
The main purpose of this paper is to describe two examples. The first is that of an almost continuous, Baire class two, non-extendable function f:[0,1]-->[0,1] with a G\delta graph. This answers a question of Gibson. The second example is that of a connectivity function F:R2-->R with dense graph such that F-1(0) is contained in a countable union of straight lines. This easily implies the existence of an extendable function f:R-->R with dense graph such that f-1(0) is countable.
We also give a sufficient condition for a Darboux …
Compositions Of Darboux And Connectivity Functions, Krzysztof Ciesielski
Compositions Of Darboux And Connectivity Functions, Krzysztof Ciesielski
Faculty & Staff Scholarship
We describe here an example of a Darboux function k from the unit interval I = [0, 1] onto itself such that k is not the composition of any finite collection of connectivity functions from I into I. This answers a question of Ceder [2].
Uniformly Antisymmetric Function With Bounded Range, Krzysztof Ciesielski
Uniformly Antisymmetric Function With Bounded Range, Krzysztof Ciesielski
Faculty & Staff Scholarship
The goal of this note is to construct a uniformly antisymmetric function f : R → R with a bounded countable range. This answers Problem 1(b) of Ciesielski and Larson [6]. (See also the list of problems in Thomson [9] and Problem 2(b) from Ciesielski’s survey [5].) A problem of existence of uniformly antisymmetric function f : R → R with finite range remains open.
