January 1999

1. Prove that the function


½
x + 2x2 sin(1/x) if x 6= 0
f (x) =
0 if x = 0

satisfies f 0 (0) > 0, but that there is no open interval containing 0 on which f is
increasing.

2. Let F : R2 → R2 be a mapping defined by F (x, y) = (u, v) where

u = u(x, y) = x cos(y)
v = v(x, y) = y cos(x).

Note that F (−π/3, π/3) = (−π/6, π/6).


(i) Show that there exist neighborhoods U of (−π/3, π/3), V of (−π/6, π/6), and
a differentiable function G: V → U such that F restricted to U is one-to-one,
F (U) = V and G(F (x, y)) = (x, y) for every (x, y) ∈ U .
(ii) Let U, V and G be as in part (i), and write

G(u, v) = (x, y), with x = x(u, v), y = y(u, v).

Find
∂x ∂y
(−π/6, π/6) and (−π/6, π/6).
∂u ∂v

3. Beginning with a1 ≥ 2, define a sequence recursively by an+1 = 2 + an . Show
that the sequence is monotone and compute its limit.

4. Let f : K → Rn be a one-to-one continuous mapping, where K ⊂ Rn is a compact


set. Thus, the mapping f −1 is defined on f (K). Prove that f −1 is continuous.

5. Let S denote the 2-dimensional surface in R3 defined by F : D → R3 where


D = {(x, y) : x2 + y 2 ≤ 4} and F (x, y) = (x, y, 6 − (x2 + y 2 )). Let ω be the
differential 1-form in R3 defined by ω = yz 2 dx + xz dy + x2 y 2 dz. After choosing
an orientation of S, evaluate the integral
Z
z dx ∧ dy + dω.
S

6. Let f : U → R1 where U := (0, 1) × (0, 1). Thus, f = f (x, y) is a function of two


variables. Assume for each fixed x ∈ (0, 1), that f (x, ·) is a continuous function
of y. Let F denote the countable family of functions f (·, r) where r ∈ (0, 1)
is a rational number. Thus, for each rational number r ∈ (0, 1), f(·, r) is a
function of x. Assume that the family F is equicontinuous. Now prove that f is
a continuous function of x and y; that is, prove that f: U → R1 is a continuous
function.

7. Let f1 ≥ f2 ≥ f3 ≥ . . . be a sequence of real-valued continuous functions defined


on the closed unit ball B ⊂ Rn such that lim fk (x) = 0 for each x ∈ B. Prove
k→∞
that fk → 0 uniformly on B. This is a special case of Dini’s theorem. You may
not appeal to Dini’s theorem to answer the problem.

8. Let f : R1 → R1 be a nonnegative function satisfying the Lipschitz condition


|f(x1 ) − f (x2 )| ≤ K|x1 − x2 | for all x1 , x2 ∈ R1 and where K > 0. Suppose that
Z ∞
f (x) dx < ∞.
0

Prove that
lim f(x) = 0.
x→∞

9. Let F be a nonnegative, continuous real-valued function defined on the infinite


strip {(x, y) : 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, y ∈ R1 } with the property that F (x, y) ≤ 4 for all
(x, y) ∈ [0, 1] × [0, 2]. Let fn be a continuous piecewise-linear function from [0, 1]
to R1 such that fn (0) = 0, fn is linear on each interval of the form [ ni , i+1 n ],
i i+1 0 i i
i = 0, 1, . . . , n − 1, and for x ∈ ( n , n ), fn (x) = F ( n , fn ( n )). Prove that there
is a subsequence {fnk } of {fn } such that fnk converges uniformly to a function
f on [0, 1/2].
