On the product of derivatives
The -finiteness of a variational measure, generated by a real valued function, is proved whenever it is -finite on all Borel sets that are negligible with respect to a -finite variational measure generated by a continuous function.
We investigate the topological structure of the space 𝓓ℬ₁ of bounded Darboux Baire 1 functions on [0,1] with the metric of uniform convergence and with the p*-topology. We also investigate some properties of the set Δ of bounded derivatives.
A simple arc ϕ is said to be a Whitney arc if there exists a non-constant function f such that for every . G. Petruska raised the question whether there exists a simple arc ϕ for which every subarc is a Whitney arc, but for which there is no parametrization satisfying . We answer this question partially, and study the structural properties of possible monotone, strictly monotone and VBG* functions f and associated Whitney arcs.
