Continuous Function

A function is called continuous in if . The function is called continuous in if is continuous for all .

A function is called continuous in if:

For continuous functions, the following holds:

since continuity is equivalent to sequential continuity:

Properties

Existence of a Delta Neighbourhood

Existence of a Delta Neighbourhood

For every continuous function with , there exists a delta neighbourhood , such that for all . Analogously, the same applies for .

Existence of a Delta Neighbourhood

Let be a continuous function and . Due to the continuity of , there exists a such that

for .

Preservation of Sign

For every continuous function with , there exists a delta neighbourhood such that for all . For the case , an analogous statement holds.

Closed Interval

Let a closed interval and a continuous function. Then is also a closed interval.

Interval on Strictly Monotone Continuous Function

Let an interval and be a strictly monotonic continuous function. Then there exists a inverse function that is also continuous.
