Lipschitz Definition and 61 Threads

I think the answer is no, since the requirements for Lipschitz continuous and epsilon-delta continuous are different. The reason I'm asking such an odd question is, I made a mistake by writing a proof of the Lipschitz continuity of ##g(h(x))## using the assumption that ##h(x)## is Lipschitz...

Prove that the series $$\sum_{k = 1}^\infty \frac{(-1)^{k-1}}{|x| + k}$$ converges for all ##x\in \mathbb{R}## to a Lipschitz function on ##\mathbb{R}##.

The reduction is simple in all cases. For the first one, put ##x_1=x, x_2=x'## and ##x_3=x''##. Let ##\pmb{x}=(x_1,x_2,x_3)##. Then we get $$\pmb{x}'= \begin{pmatrix}x_1' \\ x_2' \\ x_3' \end{pmatrix}=\begin{pmatrix}x_2 \\ x_3 \\ 1-x_1^2 \end{pmatrix}=\pmb{f}(\pmb{x}),$$ where...

Now, there's this conventional definition of the Hölder continuity of a function ##f## defined on ##[a,b]\subset\mathbb{R}##: For some real numbers ##C>0## and ##\alpha >0##, and any ##x,y\in [a,b]##, ##|f(x) - f(y)|<C|x-y|^{\alpha}##. However, this does not include functions like ##f(x) =...

This is not so much a "Homework" question I am just giving an example to ask about a specific topic. Homework Statement Is ##f(t,y)=e^{-t}y## Lipschitz continuous in ##y## Homework Equations I don't really know what to put here. Here is the definitions...

Hi, as I see Lipschitz condition is written as: |f(x)-f(x')| <= M*|x-x'| and minimum M is called Lipschitz constant. I would like to ask how the minimum M is found out? For instance for many convergence theorem include Lipschitz condition and no say something about value of M but how M is...

Compute a Lipschitz constant K as in (3.7) $$f(t, y_2)-f(t, y_1)=K(y_2-y_1) \space\space (3.7)$$, and then show that the function f satisfies the Lipschitz condition in the region indicated: $$f(t, y)=p(t)\cos{y}+q(t)\sin{y},\space {(t, y) | \space |t|\leq 100, |y|<\infty}$$ where p,q are...

Homework Statement Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution I know I will just have to show this by one example. I thought about using f(x) = x2 but I am not sure if this satisfies the last part dealing with the absolute value of the derivative. It is just the last part on which I am stuck.

I was looking at this definition of a contractive function and the only difference I saw between it and a Lipschitz function was the b and M. I am just wondering how you look at the connections between them.

Recently I was a witness and a minor contributor to this thread, which more or less derailed, in spite of the efforts by @Samy_A. This is a pity and it angered me a bit, because the topic touches upon some interesting questions in elementary functional analysis. Here I would like to briefly...

Hello! (Wave) Does the following $f(t,y)$ satisfy the Lipschitz condition as for $y$, uniformly as for $t$? If so, find the Lipschitz constant. $$f(t,y)=\frac{|y|}{t}, t \in [-1,1]$$ I have tried the following: $$\frac{|f(t,y_1)-f(t,y_2)|}{|y_1-y_2|}=\frac{|y_1|-|y_2|}{t|y_1-y_2|} \leq -...

Hey! :o Let $E \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ Lebesgue measurable and $\phi (t)=m \left ( \Pi_{i=1}^{d} (-\infty , t_i ) \cap E \right )$. To show that $\phi$ is Lipschitz, can we do it as followed?? Let $x>y$. $$|\phi(x) - \phi(y)|=|m \left ( \Pi_{i=1}^{d} (-\infty , x_i ) \cap E \right )-m \left (...

As the title says, I need to find such a region. Taking any x, and any y1 and y2 I used the expression |F(x,y1) - F(x,y2)| and plugged in the function respectively for y1 and y2. Now I have to find values for x and y such that the following condition (Lipschitz condition) is satisfied: | 2x +...

What is the difference between Lipschitz continuous and uniformly continuous? I know there different definitions but what different properties of a function make them one or the other(or both). So Lipschitz continuity means the functions derivative(gradient) is bounded by some real number and...

could you give an example where the Lipschitz condition fails,like when there is a periodic forcing function? I'm thinking the Lipschitz condition would fail for a non-autonomous differential system because period-2 orbits exist for 2D non-autonomous continuous dynamical systems,which means the...

This question is about lipschitz continuous, i think the way to check if the solutions can be found as fixed points is just differentiating f(t), but I'm not sure about this. Can anyone give me some hints please? I will really appreciate if you can give me some small hints.

a sufficient condition for uniqueness is the Lipschitz condition:  On a domain D of the plane, the function f (x, y) is said to satisfy the Lipschitz condition for a constant k > 0 if: |f(x,y1)−f(x,y2)|≤k|y1−y2| for all points (x,y1) and (x,y2) in D. Give an example of an IVP with...

(I've been lighting this board up recently; sorry about that. I've been thinking about a lot of things, and my professors all generally have better things to do or are out of town.) Is there an easy way to show that if f is Lipschitz (on all of \mathbb R), then \int_{-\infty}^\infty f^2(x)...

hey, I need to show, using Baire Category Theorem, that there exits a continuous function f: [0,1] to R , that isn't Lipschitz on the interval [r,s] for every 0<=r<s<=1 . I defined the set A(r,s) to be all the continuous functions that are lipschitz on the interval [r,s]. I showed that...

Hello I've been told that a (real) Lipschitz function (|f(x)-f(y)|<M|x-y|, for all x and y) must be differentiable almost everywhere. but I don't see how I can prove it. anyone has an idea? Thanks

Someone told me that a continuous function that is Lipschitz is differentiable almost every where. If this is true how do I see it?

"Let (V,||.||) be a normed vector space. Then by the triangle inequality, the function f(x)=||x|| is a Lipschitz function from V into [0,∞)." I don't understand how we this follows from the triangle inequality. How does the proof look like? Any help is appreciated!

I'm working on Pugh's book on analysis and there's this problem that should be very easy to solve. It's asking to show that the set of continuous functions, f:M \rightarrow R, f\in C^{Lip} obeying the Lipschitz condition (where M is a compact metric space): |f(a) - f(b)| \leq L d(a,b) for...

Hi, I am struggling with the concept of "locally Lipschitz". I have read the formal definition but i cannot see how that differs from saying something like: "A function is locally Lipschitz in x on domain D if the function doesn't blow up anywhere on D"? It seems that, when talking about...

Here is a tough one: Say we have a multivariable function f:R^n -> R and for any x, and direction u, the function g:R->R defined as g(t)=f(x+tu) has that g'(t) is Lipschitz with the same Lipschitz constant (say M). For special cases, taking u to be any basis element we see that every partial...
