Is the function uniformly continuous? .












0















$f_n(x)= dfrac{nx}{1+n^4x^4}$ , $x∈mathbb{R}$




I fixed $varepsilon >0$, looking for $delta >0$, so for every $x, y ∈ mho$ with $|x-y|<delta$ it is valid $|f(x)-f(y)|<epsilon$.



So: $left|dfrac{nx}{1+n^4x^4}-dfrac{ny}{1+n^4y^4}right|=left|dfrac{n(x-y)+n^5xy(y^3-x^3)}{(1+n^4x^4)(1+n^4y^4)}right|$



I don't know how can I go on to find a $delta$, is something wrong above?

The derivative of $f_1$ is bounded: you can prove that $|f'_1|_infty=1$; so it is $1$-Lipschitz. Then $f_n(x)=f_1(nx)$ is $n$-Lipschitz.

    You should find an upper bound on $|f(x)-f(y)|$ in terms of $d=y-x$. Since $y^3-x^3=(y-x) (y^2-3xy+x^2)$, we can rewrite $|f(x)-f(y)|$ as $dleft|dfrac{n+n^5xy(y^2-3xy+x^2)}{(1+n^4x^4)(1+n^4y^4)}right|$. So now if you can prove there is some constant number $M$ such that $left|dfrac{n+n^5xy(y^2-3xy+x^2)}{(1+n^4x^4)(1+n^4y^4)}right|<M$ for all $x$, $y$, you can take $delta=epsilon/M$. Then if $|d|=|y-x|<epsilon/M$, you have $|f(y)-f(x)|<dM=frac{epsilon M}M=epsilon$.

              You should find an upper bound on $|f(x)-f(y)|$ in terms of $d=y-x$. Since $y^3-x^3=(y-x) (y^2-3xy+x^2)$, we can rewrite $|f(x)-f(y)|$ as $dleft|dfrac{n+n^5xy(y^2-3xy+x^2)}{(1+n^4x^4)(1+n^4y^4)}right|$.

Then if $|d|=|y-x|<epsilon/M$, you have $|f(y)-f(x)|<dM=frac{epsilon M}M=epsilon$.
