Increasing singular functions with arbitrary positive derivatives at densely lying points

13 Mar 2020 · Kuba Gerald ·

Let A be an arbitrary countable set of reals, for example A=Q. Let g be an arbitrary mapping from A into the positive reals, for example g(a)=2^a. We show how a strictly increasing real function f can be constructed such that f'(x)=g(x) for every x in the set A and f'(x)=0 for almost all real numbers x.
