PROOF OF TAYLOR’S THEOREM

ection on the proof(s) of Taylor’s theorem. First we recall the (derivative form) of the theorem: Theorem 1 (Taylor’s theorem). Suppose f: (a;b) !R is a function on (a;b), where a;b 2R with a < b. Assume that for some positive integer n, f is n-times di erentiable on the open interval

Chapter 3 The Space of Continuous Functions

Baire category theorem is proved and, as an application, it is shown that continuous, nowhere di erentiable functions form a set of second category in the space of continuous functions. 3.1 Spaces of Continuous Functions We studied continuous functions on an interval in MATH2050/60 and in a domain bounded

Black-Scholes Equations - CUHK Mathematics

Black-Scholes formulation establishes the equilibrium condition between the expected return on the option, the expected return on the stock, and the riskless interest rate. We will derive the formula in this chapter. Since the publication of Black-Scholes’ and Merton’s papers, the growth of the field of derivative securities has been ...

3.2. THE CONTRACTION MAPPING PRINCIPLE 3 This theorem will be further explained and proved in the appendix. 3.2 The Contraction Mapping Principle Solving an equation f(x) = 0;where f is a function from Rn to itself frequently comes up in application. This problem can be turned into a problem for xed points. Literally,

1 Derivatives of Piecewise Defined Functions

1 Derivatives of Piecewise Defined Functions For piecewise defined functions, we often have to be very careful in com-puting the derivatives. The di↵erentiation rules (product, quotient, chain rules) can only be applied if the function is defined by ONE formula in a neighborhood of the point where we evaluate the derivative. If we want

MATH2060A Solution to Assignment 1

examine the di erentiability of j at 0 using de niton. Indeed, using the fact the cosine function is even, lim h!0 cosjhj cos0 h 0 = lim h!0 cosh 1 h = 0; from which we conclude that jis also di erentiable at x= 0. Hence jis di erentiable everywhere. A shortcut is to realize that the cosine is an even function, so j(x) = cosxis dif-ferentiable ...
