Continuity of confluent hypergeometric function in terms of its parameters
The confluent hyper geometric function of the first kind (or the Kummer's function) is defined as
$${\mathbf{M}}\left(a,b,z\right)=\frac{1}{\Gamma\left(a\right)\Gamma\left(b-a%
\right)}\int_{0}^{1}e^{...

Proof that a homeomorphism map boundaries to boundaries
I want to prove that if I have two topological spaces $X$ and $Y$, with $A \subset X$, and a homeomorphism $f : X \to Y$, then $f(\partial A) = \partial \big(f(A)\big)$.
I saw a proof here: https://...

Question about proof of Lindelöf Theorem
Supose that $\gamma : [0,1] \to \overline{\mathbb{D}}$ is continuous, $\gamma(t) \in \mathbb{D}$ for $0 \le t < 1$ and $\gamma(1) = 1$. Suppose that $f \in H(\mathbb{D})$ is bounded. If $f(\gamma(t)...

Is there a simple way to interpolate smoothly between levels of a complex-valued quadratic map?
I have two complex numbers, $a = x_1 + y_1 i$ and $c = x_2 + y_2 i$. These serve as inputs to a quadratic map $f_n = f_{n - 1}^2 + c$, with $f_0 = a$. Thus the first few iterations of the map are:

Identity theorem for (real) analytic functions on lower dimensional subsets
For simplicity, we will deal with $\mathbb{R}^2$. Let's assume we have an one-dimensional submanifold $M_1 \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ and two analytic function $F,G: M_1 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$.
If I know $...

Continuity of real part of a complex function
Consider a function $g(z)$ which is analytic on $\mathbb{C}_+$, and its range is contained in $\mathbb{C}_-$. Suppose that $g$ has a continuous extension to $\mathbb{C}_+ \cup \mathbb{R}$, denoted by $...

Does the supremum norm $\|p\|_{A}$ depend continuously on subsets $A\subset\mathbb{C}$ with respect to the Hausdorff distance?
Consider the space $\mathcal{K}$ of all non-empty compact subsets of $\mathbb{C}$. One can show that the Hausdorff distance defined by
$$h(X,Y)=\max\bigg\{\sup_{x\in X}\inf_{y\in Y}|x-y|,\sup_{y\in Y}\...

A function satisfying a condition is a polynomial of degree $\leq 1$
Let $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be a continuous function s.t $f(x)=\frac12(f(x+r)+f(x-r))$ for every $r>0, x\in\mathbb{R}$. Prove that $f$ is a polynomial of degree $\leq 1$.
This is a question ...

Continuity assumption in uniqueness of primitives (up to a constant)
Stein and Shakarchi asks us to prove that if $f$ is continuous in an open and connected set $\Omega$ that any two primitives of $f$ differ by a constant. I don't understand why the continuity ...

Define an operator $T\in B(C[0,1])$ such that: $(Tf)(x)=xf(x)$ for all $x\in [0,1]$ and $f\in C[0,1]$. Prove that $T$ has no eignvalues
Define an operator $T\in B(C[0,1])$ such that:
$(Tf)(x)=xf(x)$ for all $x\in [0,1]$ and $f\in C[0,1]$.
Prove that $T$ has no eignvalues and find $\sigma(T)$.
I think that what is meant is to show that ...

Use of uniformity of a limit for proof of continuity when right continuity is known
Consider a function $f: [0,\infty) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$. Suppose that, for any $t \in (0, \infty)$
$$
\lim_{h \downarrow 0 } \, \, ( f(t+h) - f(t) )= O(h),
$$
namely that the function $f$ is ...

If $g: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}$ then there is a $h$ entire analytic function that extends $ g $
Let $g: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}$ be a continuous function, such that $g(x)>0$, for all $ x \in \mathbb{R}^n$. I want to prove that: there is an entire analytic function $h$ (this means that $...

Why does this uniform continuity follow from continuity?
Let $K$ be a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}$. I'm reading a proof and it says the following:
Let $\epsilon > 0$. Since the mapping $\xi \mapsto e^{\imath \, \xi}$
is continuous, we can pick $\...
