    Is the Function f(x) = (x+2)^-1 Bounded on the Open Interval (-2,2)?

    Hi, I would like to know if the function f(x) = (x+2)^-1 is bounded on the open interval (-2,2)? The interval doesn't include the point x = -2 but I'm not sure if I can say that there is a K>=0 such that |f(x)| < K for all x in (-2,2). The function is defined everywhere in that interval but...

    Area of Region Bounded by y = x^2 and y = 5x+6

    Consider the region bounded by y = x^2, y = 5x+6, and the negative x-axis Compute the area of this region. Im somewhat confused by what they mean by the negative x-axis? The points of intersection between the two functions are [-1,1] and [6,36] A = Integral -1 to 6 (5x-6-x^2)? I'd...

    Bounded Solution of the Heat PDE: Is u Necessarily the Heat Kernel?

    Lets say we have a solution u, to the cauchy problem of the heat PDE: u_t-laplacian(u) = 0 u(x, 0) = f(x) u is a bounded solution, meaning: u<=C*e^(a*|x|^2) Where C and a are constant. Then, does u is necesseraly the following solution: u = integral of (K(x, y, t)*f(y)) Where K...

    How to Find the Area Bounded by a Hypocycloid Equation?

    Equation of a hypocycloid is: x^{3/2} + y^{3/2} = a^{3/2}. Find the area of the figure bounded by this hypocycloid. My work: I can use the plane polar coordinates here taking x = a\cos t & y = a\sin t with t = [0, 2\pi]. But I don't know how to obtain the surface integral for evaluating the...

    Area bounded by these lines and curves

    Find the area of a figure bounded by the equilateral hyperbola xy = a^2, the x-axis, and the lines x = a, b = 2a. My work: The equations of the lines and curves involved here are: xy = a^2 y = 0 x = a I don't know how b=2a is treated as an equation of a line here & hence I am puzzled as how to...

    Uniformly continuous and bounded

    Let f be a real uniformly continuous function on the bounded set A in \mathbb{R}^1. Prove that f is bounded on A. Since f is uniformly continuous, take \epsilon = m, \exists \delta > 0 such that |f(x)-f(p)| < \epsilon whenever |x-p|<\delta and x,p \in A Now we have |f(x)| < m +...

    What is the Definition and Equivalence of the Norm of a Bounded Operator?

    I'm having trouble with this for some reason. If A:\mathcal{H}\to \mathcal{H} is a bounded operator between Hilbert spaces, the norm of A is ||A|| = \inf\limits_{\psi \neq 0} \frac{||A\psi||}{||\psi||}. My trouble is in verifying that ||A|| is in fact a bound for A in the sense that...

    How do closed, bounded, and compact concepts relate in metric spaces?

    Could someone explain me how these three concepts hang together? (When is a set bounded but not closed, closed but not bounded, closed but not compact and so one?)

    Find the volume bounded by two curves

    I have this problem bothering me. I am asked to find the volume bounded by two curves, when they were rotated about the y axis. I did it as usual. Functions are y1 = cosx +1 [tex] y_2 = 2(\frac{x - \pi}{\pi}) ^2[/itex] The way I did the problem is to find the volume of revolution of...

    Does a bounded universe require more dimensions?

    Suppose the universe is bounded and not infinite, would it require more dimensions for the universe to curve back upon itself? Like most, I find it impossible to picture 3 dimensional space having a boundary.

    Finding region bounded by curves

    Hi. I'm new here. :) I was wondering if anyone could help me out with this problem... i'm supposed to find the region bounded by: y=x+1 y=e^-x x=1 i think i should find the other point of intersection but i forgot to do that (i haven't taken a math course for about 4 years). please help!

    Uniform continuity and bounded

    Prove that if f is uniformly continuous on a bounded set S then f is bounded on S. Our book says uniform continuity on an interval implies regular continuity on the interval, and in the previous chapter we proved that if a function is continuous on some closed interval then it is bounded...

    Bounded Function on Closed Interval: Proving Boundedness

    If f is defined on [a,b] and for every x in [a,b] there is a d_x such that if is bounded on [x-d_x, x+d_x]. Prove that f is bounded on [a,b]. This question seems very odd. If every point, and indeed the neighbourhood of every point is bounded, then of course the function itself must be bounded...

    Does Every Bounded Set in R Have a Least Upper Bound?

    Q: Show that every bounded set in R has a least upper bound. Using either "Every monotonic and bounded sequence is convergent" or "Every bounded sequence has an accumulation point" or "Every bounded sequence has a convergent subsequence" I'm not really sure how to start this out, but would...

    An ordered field in which N is bounded.

    I have absolutely no clue how to start here. Let F be the set of expressions of the form a = sum from i in Z of a-sub-i*x*i, where each a-sub-i is an element of R and {i < 0 : a-sub-i does not equal 0) is finite. (X is a formal symbol, not a number). An element a belonging to F is positive if...

    Understanding Bounded Intervals to Suprema and Infima

    "If I and J are bounded, then I\capJ is also bounded." Now, I was able to do this using the definition of suprema and infima and so fourth, but it is one godawful mess. I could sumbit it as is, but I was wondering if there's an easier way.

    Find the volume of the solid which is bounded by the cylinders

    Q. Find the volume of the solid which is bounded by the cylinders x^2 + y^2 = r^2 and y^2 + z^2 = r^2. To me they don't really look like equations of cylinders, more like circles. Would the term "r" be constant in this case? Or would it be a variable? Even if r is a variable, I don't understand...

    Showing the Inclusion of Infimum and Supremum in the Closure of a Bounded Set

    If A is a bounded subset of the reals, show that the points infA, supA belong to the closure A*. At first the answer seems obvious to me since A* contains its limit points. I'm just having trouble putting it into words, any suggestions would be great, thanks.
