Locally constant function

In mathematics, a function from a topological space into a set is called locally constant if for every one around there, on the constant.

Properties

  • Every constant function is locally constant.
  • Every locally constant function of any in a set is constant, as coherently and is not to cover by at least two disjoint open sets.
  • Every locally constant holomorphic function of an open set in the complex numbers is constant, if an area is, so is connected.
  • In general, any locally constant function is constant on each connected component, for locally connected spaces converse is also true.
  • An illustration of a topological space to a discrete space is continuous if it is locally constant.
  • Each illustration of a discrete space in any topological space is locally constant.
  • The amount of locally constant functions on a space naturally form a sheaf of commutative rings.

Examples

  • The function defined by for and is locally constant. (This one goes that is irrational, because so and are open sets that cover. )
  • The function defined by for and is as locally constant.
  • The sign function is not locally constant.
  • Step functions are not local, but piecewise constant
  • Set topology
