The Takagi function {\tau} : [0, 1] \rightarrow [0, 1] is a continuous non-differentiable function constructed by Takagi in 1903. This paper studies the level sets L(y) = {x : {\tau}(x) = y} of the Takagi function {\tau}(x). It shows that…

Let T be Takagi's continuous but nowhere-differentiable function. This paper considers the size of the level sets of T both from a probabilistic point of view and from the perspective of Baire category. We first give more elementary proofs…

This paper examines level sets of functions of the form $f(x)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{r_n}{2^n}\phi(2^n x)$, where phi(x) is the distance from x to the nearest integer, and r_n equals 1 or -1 for each n. Such functions are referred to as…

The Takagi function is a continuous non-differentiable function on [0,1] introduced by Teiji Takagi in 1903. It has since appeared in a surprising number of different mathematical contexts, including mathematical analysis, probability…

Let T be Takagi's continuous but nowhere-differentiable function. It is known that almost all level sets (with respect to Lebesgue measure on the range of T) are finite. We show that the most common cardinality of the level sets of T is…

This paper examines level sets of two families of continuous, nowhere differentiable functions (one a subfamily of the other) defined in terms of the "tent map". The well-known Takagi function is a special case. Sharp upper bounds are given…

This paper sketches the history of the Takagi function T and surveys known properties of T, including its nowhere-differentiability, modulus of continuity, graphical properties and level sets. Several generalizations of the Takagi function,…

In this paper, we investigate the Takagi-van der Waerden function, $$ T_r(x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{\phi(r^n x)}{r^n} ,\quad x\in [0,1], \quad r \in \mathbb{Z}^+, $$ where $\phi(x)={\rm dist}(x,\mathbb{Z})$ represents the distance from…

This paper examines the level sets of the continuous but nowhere differentiable functions \begin{equation*} f_r(x)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty r^{-n}\phi(r^n x), \end{equation*} where $\phi(x)$ is the distance from $x$ to the nearest integer, and $r$…

The functions of the Takagi exponential class are similar in construction to the continuous, nowhere differentiable Takagi function described in 1901. They have one real parameter $v\in (-1;1)$ and at points $x\in{\mathbb R}$ are defined by…

We consider a generalized version of the Takagi function, which is one of the most famous example of nowhere differentiable continuous functions. We investigate a set of conditions to describe the rate of convergence of Takagi class…

In a series of papers, M.Talagrand, the second author and others investigated at length the properties and structure of pointwise compact sets of measurable functions. A number of problems, interesting in themselves and important for the…

In this paper we give a detailed measure theoretical analysis of what we call sum-level sets for regular continued fraction expansions. The first main result is to settle a recent conjecture of Fiala and Kleban, which asserts that the…

A topological measure on a locally compact space is a set function on open and closed subsets which is finitely additive on the collection of open and compact sets, inner regular on open sets, and outer regular on closed sets. Almost all…

We consider a one-parameter family of functions $\{F(t,x)\}_{t}$ on $[0,1]$ and partial derivatives $\partial_{t}^{k} F(t, x)$ with respect to the parameter $t$. Each function of the class is defined by a certain pair of two square matrices…

The Takagi function is a classical example of a continuous nowhere differentiable function. It has empty subdifferential except in a countable set where its subdifferential is $\mathbb{R}$. In this paper we characterize its…

The Takagi function $T:[0,1]\to \mathbb{R}$ is a classical example of a continuous nowhere differentiable function. In this paper, we study the discrete dynamical system generated by the Takagi function. First, we prove that for almost…

We consider a generalized Takagi function for beta-expansions with the base $1<\beta\leq2$, motivated by multifractal analysis for digit frequency sets of beta-expansions [20]. We show that it is pointwise $\alpha$-H\"older continuous for…

Let L_a(x) be Lebesgue's singular function with a real parameter a (0<a<1, a not equal to 1/2). As is well known, L_a(x) is strictly increasing and has a derivative equal to zero almost everywhere. However, what sets of x in [0,1] actually…

In this paper we study some properties of Takagi functions and their level sets. We show that for Takagi functions $T_{a,b}$ with parameters $a,b$ such that $ab$ is a root of a Littlewood polynomial, there exist large level sets. As a…
