Lab 135 – Limits and continuity MAPLE has a powerful capability to find a limit. The MAPLE function that is used to find a limit is limit find the limit of f(x) = (x-2)/(x^2-1) First define the function f(x) Find the limit of f(x) as x approaches 0, 1, -1, When x approaches 1, -1 the limit does not exist therefore MAPLE gives undefined. To convince ourselves about the function’s behavior we can plot it. a different behavior has the limit of f(x) = (x-2)/(x-1)^2. limit(f(x), x=-1); limit(f(x), x=infinity); abs Plot the function. limit(f(x), x=infinity); as x - Exercises: . Plot them. f(x) = ( e^x – 1)/x f(x) = ( e^x e^x f(x) = 5-2*x f(x) = ln (x) f(x) = cos (x) f(x) = (1/x)* cos (x) f(x) = (1/x)*sin(1/x)

Calculus:Complex analysis From Wikibooks Complex analysis is the study of functions of complex variables. Complex analysis is a widely used and powerful tool in certain areas of electrical engineering, and others. Before we begin, you may want to review Complex numbers Contents Complex Numbers Complex Functions Limits and continuity Differentiation and Holomorphic Functions ... edit Complex Numbers Complex Numbers edit Complex Functions A function of a complex variable is a function that can take on complex values, as well as strictly real ones. For example, suppose f(z) = z . This function sets up a correspondence between the complex number z and its square, z , just like a function of a real variable, but with complex numbers. Note that, for f(z) = z , f(z) will be strictly real if z is strictly real. Generally we can write a function f(z) in the form f(z) = f(x+iy) = a(x,y) + ib(x,y), where a and b are real-valued functions. edit Limits and continuity As with real-valued functions, we have concepts of limits and continuity with complex-valued functions also – our usual delta-epsilon limit definition: The limit of f( z ) as z approaches w is L z z z w Note that ε and δ are real values. This is implicit in the use of inequalities: only real values are "greater than zero".

Real analysis From Wikibooks Contents Introduction What is Analysis? Analysis or Calculus? Preliminaries ... edit Introduction edit What is Analysis? Analysis is, generally speaking, the study of properties of functions that depend on continuity. This is a simple and somewhat inaccurate answer, but analysis is a huge field. Mathematics is often roughly subdivided into analysis, algebra and topology, so the coverage of each of these fields is quite broad. This book is concerned in particular with analysis in the context of the Real numbers — there are many other fields of analysis, such as complex analysis, functional analysis and harmonic analysis. It will first develop the basic concepts needed for the idea of functions, then move on to the more analysis-based topics. edit Analysis or Calculus? Analysis is concerned with primarily the same topics as Calculus , such as limits, derivatives, and integrals, but in a mathematical way rather than in a simply practical way. Before you study analysis, you may want to study calculus; you will end up repeating much of the same material when you come back to analysis, but you will understand its practical significance. It may seem like a wasteful duplication of effort, but you will feel much more comfortable with many of the basic concepts of analysis. On the other hand, when studying calculus you may be dismayed at the frequent statement of rules for performing various operations with little or no justification. The study of analysis puts all these on a formal basis and provides that justification.

Next: Partial DerivativesDifferentials, and Up: Computational Labs in Mathematica Previous: Graphic Representations of Two Limits and Continuity of Two Dimensional Functions Objectives In this lab you will use the Mathematica to get a visual idea about the existence and behavior of limits of functions of two variables. You will also begin to use some of Mathematica 's symbolic capacities to advantage. The Two Functions We will compare and contrast two functions with respect to their behavior at x y First, input these two functions into Mathematica by defining functions as follows: f[x_,y_] := x y /(x^2 + y^2) The square brackets, the underscores, and the `:=' are necessary. The advantage of defining a function in Mathematica is that you can now evaluate it for a variety of arguments. For example, to see what the function looks like along the curve , type f[x, x^2+7] and shift-return. To evaluate the function at the point (1,3), simply type f[1,3] and shift-return. Graphics for Functions Produce contour and surface plots of the functions f and g . Use the following format for commands: with whatever options you want. Since

After canceling the common factor we can find the limit. Showing that a given function in 2 variables is discontinuous at a point requires some work. Because the (x,y) can approach the given point along an infinite number of paths. Example: Then the limit is 1/(1-m). So we get more than one limit as (x,y) approaches (0,0).

COMPLEX ANALYSIS: Mathematica 4.1 Notebooks (c) John H. Mathews, and ... COMPLEX FUNCTIONS Section 2.4 Limits and Continuity Let u = u(x,y) be a real-valued function of the two real variables x and y. Recall that u has the limit as (x,y) approaches provided that the value of u(x,y) can be made to get as close as we please to the value by taking (x,y) to be sufficiently close to . When this happens we write In more technical language, u has the limit as (x,y) approaches if and only if can be made arbitrarily small by making both and small. This is like the definition of a limit for functions of one variable, except that there are two variables instead of one. Since (x,y) is a point in the xy-plane, and the distance between (x,y) and is , we can give a precise definition of a limit as follows. Definition 2.3 ( limit of u(x,y) ), Page 69. The expression means that for each number , there corresponds a number such that whenever Example 2.14, Page 69. The function has the limit as (x,y) approaches (0,0). Solution 2.14.

Mat210 Section 3.1 Limits and Continuity Why study limits? Recall that there were four classic problems whose solutions lead to an incredible burst of intellectual progress in mathematics. The first of these mentioned was the problem of finding the slope of a tangent line to any arbitrary curve we might be interested in. The path to the solution is easy enough to relate in a few words: we apply the concept of a limit to the general slope expression of a function, usually called a difference quotient. But to get us from here to there, you first need to understand what we mean by a limit. What is a limit? We deal with limiting values all of the time: speed limits spending limits endurance limits height limits on a freeway overpass (clearance) weight limits (heavy trucks must use alternate highway, elevator limit 1,000 pounds...) just to name a few examples. Intuitively a limit in every day life is a value we can get very close to, maybe even reach, but we ought not to exceed. The mathematical definition of a limit goes further than that. There are very specific constraints we put on the idea of a limit to be able to determine whether a limit exists or not. We go back to the input-ouput idea of functions and ask, for a given set of inputs x, approaching a given value "A", for x values both greater than and less than A , do the outputs y approach a certain value "B"? If so, the output value B is the number that we call the limit. Let's put this into a context:

Feedback on 05 Limits and Continuity You will find here additional information about the various problems which students have asked about. Check here if you are having problems with specific exercises; you can also send e-mail to ken@ms.uky.edu Corrections to the Homework web page: Question 2 had two identical answers but only one of them would have been graded as correct. It has been changed so there is a unique correct answer. (From bomarf 8/31/2000) Question 1: I thought that as x approched 3 that the limit wouldn't exist, The limit exists because as you approach x = 1 from either side, the values of the function get closer and closer to 3. Note that the limit does NOT depend on the value of the function at x = 3, but depends only of the values of the function for x near 3. (From beckerk 8/31/2000) Question 4: Why does the limit not exist? I thought it was approaching infinity in both directions. No, from the left, it approaches negative infinity; and from the right, it approaches plus infinity. So the two one sided limits are not equal and the limit does not exist. (From beckerk 8/31/2000) Question 4: i didn't understand what the question was asking for, it was unclear to me

Laboratory 6 Limits and Continuity of Functions of Two Variables Introduction This lab will develop some techniques to help us visualize functions of two variables; in particular we shall examine the relationship between three dimensional graphs and their corresponding contour graphs. This will help us to understand the notion of a limit of a function of more than one variable, as well as to understand what it means for a function of more than one variable to be continuous. Example 6.1, Surfaces and Contour Plots A contour plot of a surface is a collection of the two dimensional graphs for various values of . For example, a contour graph of the paraboloid would consist of a sequence of circles in the plane with center at the origin; this is because the two dimensional graphs for are all circles. Although in this case we were able to find the contour graphs algebraically, in general this is a difficult process. The following module, called BasicContourPlot can be used to obtain the contour plot of a function together with its corresponding three dimensional graph. As input, it takes the name of a function, then the , and windows that will be used for the graphs. Before the command can be executed however, you must load the package
