Definition
Let $f: X \to Y$ be a real function.
Let $x \in X$.
Definition 1
Let $\NN_x$ be the set of neighborhoods of $x$.
The oscillation of $f$ at $x$ is defined as:
- $\ds \map {\omega_f} x := \inf_{U \mathop \in \NN_x} \map {\omega_f} {U \cap X}$
where $\map {\omega_f} {U \cap X}$ denotes the oscillation of $f$ on $U \cap X$.
Definition 2
The oscillation of $f$ at $x$ is defined as:
- $\ds \map {\omega_f} x := \inf \set {\map {\omega_f} {\openint {x - \epsilon} {x + \epsilon} \cap X}: \epsilon \in \R_{>0} }$
where $\map {\omega_f} {\openint {x - \epsilon} {x + \epsilon} \cap X}$ denotes the oscillation of $f$ on $\openint {x - \epsilon} {x + \epsilon} \cap X$.
Definition 3
The oscillation of $f$ at $x$ is defined as:
- $\ds \map {\omega_f} x := \lim_{h \mathop \to 0^+} \map {\omega_f} {\openint {x - h} {x + h} \cap X}$
where $\map {\omega_f} {\openint {x - h} {x + h} \cap X}$ denotes the oscillation of $f$ on $\openint {x - h} {x + h} \cap X$.
