A NALYSIS II Metric Spaces: Limits and Continuity Defn Suppose (X,d) is a metric space and A is a subset of X. A point x is called an interior point of A if there is a neighborhood of x contained in A. A set N is called a neighborhood (nbhd) of x if x is an interior point of N A point x is called a boundary point of A if it is a limit point of both A and its complement. A point x is called a limit point of the set A if each neighborhood of x contains points of A distinct from x. (This is equivalent to saying that each neighborhood of x has an infinite number of members of A. Recall that a neighborhood for a point x, is a set containing an open -nbhd of x.) A point x is called an isolated point of A if x belongs to A but is not a limit point of A. Proposition A set O in a metric space is open if and only if each of its points are interior points. Proposition A set C in a metric space is closed if and only if it contains all its limit points. Defn Suppose (X,d) is a metric space and A is a subset of X. The closure of A is the smallest closed subset of X which contains A. The

45. Section 2.1 Limits And Continuity closer to a given x value. The function is not continuous at x = 1,but the limit does exist, and it is the output value y = 5! http://fym.la.asu.edu/~fym/mat210_web/lessons/Ch2/2_1/2_1ol.htm

Mat210 Section 2.1a Limits for Finite Values of x This example is a little "cooked up" or artificial, presented here to serve as a metaphor to help you get a grasp on the idea of a limiting value. So, keep in mind, a limiting value, or limit, if it exists, is the y value (output value) of a function . We have already seen a case of a function having a limiting value when we studied logistic functions in section 1.9. But in that case, we were considering an ultimate output value of y as x increased without stopping. If we think of the x-axis as representing time, just for definiteness, with logistic functions we studied what the value of the output value tended towards as we look into the far distant future. But here, on the other hand, we zoom in on a particular point at a specific point in time to study the outputs under a microscope, so to speak. We carefully examine the function in a small neighborhood around a particular x value to see if the y value approached is indeed the same from both directions on the curve. This sounds simple enough! The only counter-intuitive aspect to grasping this idea of a limit is this: we are concerned only with the value of y we approach as we approach the x value of interest

Mat210 Section 2.1b Finding Limits of Functions Now that we have some idea of what a limit is, let's focus in on limit calculations for various functions. Example 1: Find Factor, cancel, and evaluate:  Verify Graphically We can not see the “hole” at x =4, but our calculator verifies that it is there. Verify Numerically We can see that as x gets close to 4 from either direction, y gets close to 7. So the answer is, the limit of the function as x approaches 4 is 7. Example 2:   Evaluate: Evaluate left and right hand limits left:  right: since  the limit D.N.E. (We don’t care that x = 2 at 1!) Verify Graphically Notice that the calculator produces an “artifact”:  a connection between the graphs that isn’t really there.  Changing the settings in MODE to DOT rather than CONNECTED usually gets rid of this artifact.  In this case, it didn’t. Verify Numerically A reminder about how to enter a piecewise function into your grapher is below.     or      Example 3: Find Same for any (real number) constant value

We do the same thing in 3-D, we use the equation to help us find out what number the graph is approaching. However, it is a little more complicated because we are dealing with three dimensions rather than two. Here is the definition for a limit in 3-D: Definition: Let be a function of two variables whose domain includes points arbitrarily close to . Then we say that the limit of as approaches is and we write: if for every number there is a corresponding number such that Above the limit is figured by taking the limit of the function along only one path. This is sufficient in 2-D, however it is not sufficient in 3-D. This is because a person can take more than one path of approach to a point. This idea is given below in a formal definition: Definition: If as along a path C and as along a path C where , then does not exist.

Chapter 2 Computing Limits and Continuity The two sites above were created at Harvey Mudd College as a part of their Mathematics Online Tutorial. The first section, Computing Limits, includes an intuitive discussion as well as a technical discussion of what a limit is. It also includes practice problems with answers for students to try. Properties of limits are also discussed and a box including the "Key Concepts" can be found at the end of the section. The second section, Continuity, covers continuity at a point and includes proofs of most of the material. Again, a "Key Concepts" box can be found at the end of the section. Both sections include illustrations which demonstrate the information being proven. These sites are very helpful and I would recommend them to anyone who needs help with Limits and/or Continuity.

A vector function is a function that produces a vector how to compute limits, the definitions of "continuity", "derivative", and "integral" will http://omega.math.albany.edu:8008/calc3/vector-functions-dir/intro-maple.html

Vector Functions: Limits, Continuity A vector function is a function that produces a vector. The typical example is the trajectory of a particle in space. At each time "t" the particle has position vector "r(t)". In a given coordinate system we can write the componets of "r(t)" in terms of the basis vectors i,j and k. Here is an example: i := vector([1,0,0]): j:=vector([0,1,0]): k:=vector([0,0,1]): r := t -> cos(t)*i + sin(t)*j + t*k; r := t -> cos(t) i + sin(t) j + t k Hence, the positions of the particle at times t=0, t=Pi/2 and t=Pi are given by the vectors: r(0); r(Pi/2); r(Pi); i j + 1/2 Pi k - i + Pi k Here is a picture of this curve with(plots): spacecurve(evalm(r(t)), t=0..4*Pi, color=YELOW,axes=NORMAL); Limits The fundamental concept of Calculus is the concept of "limit". Once you know how to compute limits, the definitions of "continuity", "derivative", and "integral" will follow easily. If you revise your Calc I notes you will soon discover that the definition of limit depends only on the concept of distance between two points. It then follows that if you know how to compute the distance between two points then you also know how to compute the limit of a function that takes values (or that it is defined) in that space of points. The definition of limit, in words, is:

Calculus with Analytic Geometry and On-Line Exercises Laleh Sketch Project 1 Introduction In calculus and its applications, we are often interested in the value of a function y = f(x) as x gets close to some fixed value a, but is not actually equal to a. This value (if it exists) is referred to as It is important to note that the limit from the left (as x gets closer to a from the left on the x axis) is not always the same as the limit from the right In this sketch project you will experiment with various limits and attempt to determine when the limits exist and under what conditions a function is continuous at a point.
