Homework Statement



i have a couple of questions to anser and they start 'Give epsilon - delta proofs that the following functions are continuous at the indicated points.'

im guessing its not going to be too hard but what is the name of this epsilon - delta proof so i can search for and learn about it.


The Attempt at a Solution

It is just one of the definitions of Continuity.

A fuction f is continuous at Xo if

For each \epsilon > 0 there exists \delta such that

|X-Xo|<\delta Implies |f(X)-f(Xo)|<\epsilon

For all X,Xo belonging to Domain of f
 
Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
