let f: (a,b) ---> be continuous on (a,b) where Z is the integers. Show that f must be a constant
function
Solution
1st method:(thoeriticaly)
If the domain X is connected and f is continuous, then f(X) is also connected. The only
connected subsets of the integers are sets containing at most one point. Hence f(X) (which is
presumably non-empty) has exactly one point and f is constant on X.
so f is a constant function.
OR
2nd method:
let us assume that
y1=f(x1) and
y2=f(x2)
and y1 <= y2 without loss of generality
Then by the intermediate value theorem, f must take all the values in [y1,y2].
however, range is integer this can only be true when f takes only one value at a time.
so f is constant.
