We examine a parameterized family of functions F_a, all of which are continuous and some of which are nowhere or almost nowhere differentiable, we explore the behavior of F'_a and F"_a almost everywhere for different values of a, focusing…
Riemann's non-differentiable function is a celebrated example of a continuous but almost nowhere differentiable function. There is strong numeric evidence that one of its complex versions represents a geometric trajectory in experiments…
We consider a class of "box-like" statistically self-affine functions, and compute the almost-sure box-counting dimension of their graphs. Furthermore, we consider the differentiability of our functions, and prove that, depending on an…
A metric space (X,d) is monotone if there is a linear order < on X and a constant c>0 such that d(x,y) < c d(x,z) for all x<y<z in X. Properties of continuous functions with monotone graph (considered as a planar set) are investigated. It…
We construct an algebra of dimension $2^{\aleph_0}$ consisting only of functions which in no point possess a finite one-sided derivative. We further show that some well known nowhere differentiable functions generate algebras, which contain…
We investigate the algebraic genericity of various families of continuous functions exhibiting extreme irregularity, focusing on fractal dimensions, H\"older regularity, and fractional differentiability. Our first main result shows that for…
We construct uncountably generated algebras inside the following sets of special functions: Sierpi\'nski-Zygmund functions, perfectly everywhere surjective functions and nowhere continuous Darboux functions. All conclusions obtained in this…
Let T be Takagi's continuous but nowhere-differentiable function. Using a representation in terms of Rademacher series due to N. Kono, we give a complete characterization of those points where T has a left-sided, right-sided, or two-sided…
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…
We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the graph of a prevalent continuous function is 2. We also indicate how our results can be extended to the space of continuous functions on $[0,1]^d$ for $d \in \mathbb{N}$ and use this to obtain…
A one-to-one continuous function from a triangle to itself is defined that has both interesting number theoretic and analytic properties. This function is shown to be a natural generalization of the classical Minkowski ?(x) function. It is…
We construct a H\"older continuous function on the unit interval which coincides in uncountably (in fact continuum) many points with every function of total variation smaller than 1 passing through the origin. We say that a function with…
This paper examines dimension of the graph of the famous Weierstrass non-differentiable function \[ W_{\lambda, b} (x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\lambda^n\cos(2\pi b^n x) \] for an integer $b \ge 2$ and $1/b < \lambda < 1$. We prove that for…
Under certain continuity conditions, we estimate upper and lower box dimension of graph of a function defined on the Sierpinski gasket. We also give an upper bound for Hausdorff dimension and box dimension of graph of function having finite…
We show that there exists an entire function which has neither fixed points nor invariant Baker domains. The question whether such a function exists was raised by Buff.
In contrast to the univariate case, several definitions are available for the notion of bounded variation for a bivariate function. This article is an attempt to study the Hausdorff dimension and box dimension of the graph of a continuous…
The Minkowski Question Mark function relates the continued-fraction representation of the real numbers, to their binary expansion. This function is peculiar in many ways; one is that its derivative is 'singular'. One can show by classical…
Recent findings show that the classical Riemann's non-differentiable function has a physical and geometric nature as the irregular trajectory of a polygonal vortex filament driven by the binormal flow. In this article, we give an upper…
Okamoto's one-parameter family of self-affine functions $F_a: [0,1]\to[0,1]$, where $0<a<1$, includes the continuous nowhere differentiable functions of Perkins ($a=5/6$) and Bourbaki/Katsuura ($a=2/3$), as well as the Cantor function…
The classical example of no-where differentiable but everywhere continuous function is Weierstrass function. In this paper we define the fractional order Weierstrass function in terms of Jumarie fractional trigonometric functions. The…
