Limits and Continuity of Two Dimensional Functions
Objectives
In this lab you will use the Mathematica to get a visual idea about the existence and behavior of limits of functions of two variables. You will also begin to use some of Mathematica 's symbolic capacities to advantage.
The Two Functions
We will compare and contrast two functions with respect to their behavior at x y First, input these two functions into Mathematica by defining functions as follows: f[x_,y_] := x y /(x^2 + y^2) The square brackets, the underscores, and the `:=' are necessary. The advantage of defining a function in Mathematica is that you can now evaluate it for a variety of arguments. For example, to see what the function looks like along the curve , type f[x, x^2+7] and shift-return. To evaluate the function at the point (1,3), simply type f[1,3] and shift-return.
Graphics for Functions
Produce contour and surface plots of the functions f and g . Use the following format for commands: with whatever options you want. Since

    f(x) = x
    f(2) =
Q Is that all there is to evaluating limits algebraically: just substitute the number x is approaching in the given expression?
A Not always, but this often does happen, and when it does, we say that the function is continuous at the value of x in question. Continuous Functions The function f(x) is continuous at x = a if
    x a f(x) exists, and equals f(a).

PD.2 Limits and Continuity
We used limits in 2-D to help us determine what value in the range a number was approaching. We do the same thing in 3-D, we use the equation to help us find out what number the graph is approaching. However, it is a little more complicated because we are dealing with three dimensions rather than two. Here is the definition for a limit in 3-D: Definition: Let be a function of two variables whose domain includes points arbitrarily close to . Then we say that the limit of as approaches is and we write:
if for every number there is a corresponding number such that
Above the limit is figured by taking the limit of the function along only one path. This is sufficient in 2-D, however it is not sufficient in 3-D. This is because a person can take more than one path of approach to a point. This idea is given below in a formal definition: Definition: If as along a path C and as along a path C where , then

    Definition of Limit
    If the values of f(x) can be made as close as we like to L by making x sufficiently close to a (but not equal to a), then we write
    lim f(x)=L
    x->a

    which is read "the limit of f(x) as x approaches a is L
    One-sided Limits
    If the values of f(x) can be made as close as we like to L by making x sufficiently close to a (but greater than a), then we write
    lim f(x)=L
    x->a+

    which is read "the limit of f(x) as x approaches a from the right is L Similarly, If the values of f(x) can be made as close as we like to L by making x sufficiently close to a (but less than a), then we write
    lim f(x)=L
    x->a-

    which is read "the limit of f(x) as x approaches a from the left is L
    Two-sided Limits
    The two-sided limit of a function f exists at a point a if and only if the one-sided limits exist as that point and have the same value: that is, lim f(x) = L if and only if lim f(x) =L = lim f(x)
    x->a x->a- x->a+
    Continuity
    Generally speaking, the function is continuous at x=a if and only if the two-sided limit of the function exists at x=a.

  • Corrections to the Homework web page:
  • Question 2 had two identical answers but only one of them would have been graded as correct. It has been changed so there is a unique correct answer.
  • (From bomarf 8/31/2000) Question 1: I thought that as x approched 3 that the limit wouldn't exist, The limit exists because as you approach x = 1 from either side, the values of the function get closer and closer to 3. Note that the limit does NOT depend on the value of the function at x = 3, but depends only of the values of the function for x near 3.
  • (From beckerk 8/31/2000) Question 4: Why does the limit not exist? I thought it was approaching infinity in both directions. No, from the left, it approaches negative infinity; and from the right, it approaches plus infinity. So the two one sided limits are not equal and the limit does not exist.

    Definition 3.1.1 Let f be a function of the complex variable z . The complex number l is called the limit of f at z if Example 3.1.2 Let f z z -1. We prove that Let be given. We look for such that
    We take any such that and we are done. Definition 3.1.3 Let f be a function defined on a domain R in and let z be an interior point of R . The function f is continuous at z if Formally this definition is identical to the corresponding definition in Calculus. Thus we get easily the two following propositions: Proposition 3.1.4 Let f and g be two functions defined on a neighborhood of z . We suppose that f and g are continuous at z
    (i)
    f g is continuous at z
    (ii)
    fg is continuous at z
    (iii)
    If , then 1/ g is continuous at z
    (iv)
    If , then f g is continuous at z
    For a proof, we suggest to the reader to have a look at his/her course in Calculus. The needed adaptation is merely to understand the absolute value here as the absolute value of complex numbers instead of that of real numbers. The same remark applies to Prop. Proposition 3.1.5
