1. Check the ( left / right) continuity of the following functions:


(a) f (x) = b x5 c, x R.
(b) f (x) = x2 if x Q and f (x) = x if x 6 Q.
(c) f (x) = x if x Q and f (x) = 1 x if x 6 Q.

(d) f (x) = e x for x 6= 0.


2. Let f (x) = 0 if x 6= 0 and f (0) = 1. Prove that lim f (x) = 0 but there exists a sequence {xn }
x0

such that xn 0 and f (xn ) 9 1.


3. Find ( if it exists) lim f (x), lim g(y) and lim g(f (x)) for the following functions f : R R.
x1

y2

(a) f (x) = 2; g(y) = 3 if y 6= 2, g(2) = 0


(b) f (x) = 2 if x Q and f (x) = 2x if x 6 Q; g as in (a).
4. Prove that if f (x) q as x p and g(y) r as y q, and if f (x) 6= q for some x in a
deleted neighbourhood of p, then lim g(f (x)) = r.

sequence?
6. Let f : R R be a continuous function such that lim f (x) and

7. Prove that if f : R R is continuous then Z(f ) = {x : f (x) = 0} is a closed set in R.
8. Suppose that f : R R is continuous, and that for each y R , there is at most one x such
that f (x) = y. Show that f is monotonic.
9. Suppose that f : R Q is continuous. Show that f is a constant function.
10. Suppose that f : [0, 1] [0, 1] is continuous. Show that there is a point x [0, 1] such that
f (x) = x. Is the result true if f : (0, 1) (0, 1) is continuous.
11. A function f : R R satisfies |f (x) f (y)| K|x y| for some K R. Prove that f is

continuous at 0, f is continuous everywhere on R. Is f uniformly continuous?
13. Let f : R R be a function such that f (x + y) = f (x) f (y), x, y R. Prove that, if f is
continuous at 0, f is continuous everywhere on R.
14. Let f : R R be a function such that f (xy) = f (x) f (y), x, y R. Prove that, if f is
continuous at 1, f is continuous at all x 6= 0. Give examples of such a functions f1 and f2 such
that f1 is continuous at 0 while f2 is not continuous at 0 .
15. Let f : R R be a function such that f (xy) = f (x) + f (y), x, y R. Prove that, if f is
continuous at 1, f is continuous at all x > 0. Give an example of such a function.

18. Suppose that f : R R and g : R R are uniformly continuous. Is it true that f g is uniformly
continuous.
19. Suppose that f : R R is continuous and periodic ( that is, f (x + p) = f (x), x R for some
p R). Then prove that f is both bounded and uniformly continuous.
20. If {xn } is a Cauchy sequence in a set A and if f is uniformly continuous on A, is {f (xn )} a
Cauchy sequence?

f = g?
22. Prove that, f in Question No 12, satisfies f (tx) = tf (x), t R. Hence f (x) = ax for some
a R.
