On continuous functions with no unilateral derivatives

Masayoshi Hata (1988)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We construct a family of continuous functions on the unit interval which have nowhere a unilateral derivative finite or infinite by using De Rham’s functional equations. Then we show that for any α [ 0 , 1 ...

On Kantorovich's result on the symmetry of Dini derivatives

Martin Koc, Luděk Zajíček (2010)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

For f : ( a , b ) , let A f be the set of points at which f is Lipschitz from the left but not from the right. L.V. Kantorovich (1932) proved that, if f is continuous, then A f is a “( k d )-reducible set”. The proofs of L. Zajíček (1981) and B.S. Thomson (1985) give that A f is a σ -strongly right porous set for an arbitrary f . We discuss connections between these two results. The main motivation for the present note was the observation that Kantorovich’s result implies the existence of a σ -strongly right porous set A ( a , b ) ...

On the differentiability of certain saltus functions

Gerald Kuba (2011)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We investigate several natural questions on the differentiability of certain strictly increasing singular functions. Furthermore, motivated by the observation that for each famous singular function f investigated in the past, f’(ξ) = 0 if f’(ξ) exists and is finite, we show how, for example, an increasing real function g can be constructed so that g ' ( x ) = 2 x for all rational numbers x and g’(x) = 0 for almost all irrational numbers x.
