  1. Continuous vs Discrete Variables - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 14, 2025 · Both discrete and continuous variables generally do have changing values—and a discrete variable can vary continuously with time. I am quite aware that discrete variables are those …

  2. What is a continuous extension? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    The continuous extension of f(x) f (x) at x = c x = c makes the function continuous at that point. Can you elaborate some more? I wasn't able to find very much on "continuous extension" throughout the web. …

  3. probability theory - Why does a C.D.F need to be right-continuous ...

    May 10, 2019 · This function is always right-continuous. That is, for each x ∈ Rk x ∈ R k we have lima↓xFX(a) =FX(x) lim a ↓ x F X (a) = F X (x). My question is: Why is this property important? Is …

  4. Difference between continuity and uniform continuity

    Jan 27, 2014 · To understand the difference between continuity and uniform continuity, it is useful to think of a particular example of a function that's continuous on $\mathbb R$ but not uniformly …

  5. What's the difference between continuous and piecewise continuous ...

    Oct 15, 2016 · A continuous function is a function where the limit exists everywhere, and the function at those points is defined to be the same as the limit. I was looking at the image of a piecewise continuous

  6. What does it mean that "every metric is continuous"?

    Jun 11, 2025 · 6 "Every metric is continuous" means that a metric d d on a space X X is a continuous function in the topology on the product X × X X × X determined by d d.

  7. is bounded linear operator necessarily continuous?

    In general, is a bounded linear operator necessarily continuous (I guess the answer is no, but what would be a counter example?) Are things in Banach spaces always continuous?

  8. calculus - Showing that a function is not continuous - Mathematics ...

    Showing that a function is not continuous Ask Question Asked 8 years, 11 months ago Modified 7 years, 4 months ago

  9. Proof that the continuous image of a compact set is compact

    I know that the image of a continuous function is bounded, but I'm having trouble when it comes to prove this for vectorial functions. If somebody could help me with a step-to-step proof, that would be great.

  10. general topology - Continuous selection from an upper hemicontinuity ...

    Nov 17, 2024 · 0 You would need lower hemicontinuity, see, e.g., selection theorems, to get the existence of a continuous selection. If your upper hemicontinuous map ϕ ϕ is a singleton at x0 x 0, …
