Discontinuous for rationals

Show that $f\left(x\right):=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\left\{nx\right\}}{n^2}$, where $\left\{nx\right\}$ is the fractional part of $nx$, is discontinuous for all rationals. I guess it would be nice ...

Why is the graph of a continuous function to a Hausdorff space closed?

Say I have two top. spaces given by $(X,\mathscr{T}_x)$ and $(Y,\mathscr{T}_Y)$ where $Y$ is Hausdorff. In addition say I have a functon $f:X\rightarrow Y$, and let it be continuous. I want to show ...

Find all continuous functions (did I do this correctly?)

Find all the continuous functions $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ satisfying: $f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)+f(x)f(y)$ for all $x,y\in\mathbb{R}$ Solution attempt: $$\begin{align*} f(x+y) + 1 &= f(x) + ...

Necessary and Sufficient Condition for two metrics to have same open sets.

There are couple of independent conditions like one being scalar multiple of another, or if $$d_p(x,y)=(x^p+y^p)^{1/p}$$ then all $d_ps$ and $d_qs.$ which guarantee that open sets are same under these ...

Intermediate value-like theorem for $\mathbb{C}$?

Is there an intermediate value like theorem for $\mathbb{C}$? I know $\mathbb {C}$ isn't ordered, but if we have a function $f:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ that's continuous, what can we conclude about ...

Showing a function is not one-to-one near the origin

Let $$f(x)=\begin{cases} x+2x^2\sin\left(\frac{1}{x}\right) \text{ if } x \neq 0 \\ 0 \text{ if } x=0 \end{cases}$$ I'm trying to show this is not one-to-one near $0$. I was given a hint to consider ...
