Find the domain of the functions of the type $f(x)^{g(x)}$.

Find the domain of $(\frac{2+x}{1-x})^{\frac{1}{x}}$I tried to find the domain of this function but could not find.Then i referred the symbolab.com domain calculator,and it showed me a technique to...

A question about the relation between uniform continuous map and Cauchy...

Suppose $X,Y$ are metric spaces, $f:X\to{Y}$ is a map.If $X$ is compact metric space, we know $f$ is a uniform continuous map $\Leftrightarrow$ for all Cauchy sequence $x_n$, $f(x_n)$ is a Cauchy...

Interval related to increasing/decreasing and concavity/convexity

Why do some people use closed intervals when describing the intervals where a function is increasing/decreasing or concave/convex?For example, given the function $f(x)= x^2-5x+6$, it says the interval...

Connectedness of intersection of two sets

Let $K$ be a compact subset of $\mathcal{R}^n$. Let $x_0\in \partial K$ (boundary of $K$). I want to show there exists a $\delta$ Such that $B_\delta(x_0)\cap K$ is connected. I don't even know if the...

Solving $f'(x) = -g(x)/x$, $g'(x) = f(x)/x$

Find all differentiable functions $f$ and $g$ at $(0,∞)$ such that $f'(x) = -g(x)/x$ and $g'(x) = f(x)/x$ for all $x > 0$.I tried to determine the second derivative of $f$, then substituted $g(x)$...

Edit:It is well known that for real variable $x$, $\lim_{x \to 1^-} (1 - x) \Big( \sum_{m = 0}^\infty x^{m^2} \Big)^2 = \frac{\pi}{4}$.I would like to know whether this limit continues to hold if we...

Integration of softplus function

The softplus function $f(x)=\ln(1+e^x)$ is a good approximation for $\max\{x,0\}$.However, finding the primitive of $f(x)=\ln(1+e^x)$ seems to be quite difficult. Is there any tractable way to do that?...

Examples of smooth functions with 'pathological' properties
