Topology: continuity on product of (metric) spaces












1














What are the conditions so that the function defined on the product space $Xtimes Y$



$f: X times Yrightarrow mathbb{Z}$ is continuous. For example, is there a condition that says that if any restriction on $X times{y_0}$ or ${x_0}times Y $ is continuous, then $f$ is continuous? Are there other conditions if we deal with metric spaces ?

  • Part of the def'n of a Topological Group $G$ is that $f:Gtimes Gto G$, where $f(a,b)=ab$, is continuous. I have an example of a group where $f(a,b)=ab$ is continuous in each variable but $ f$ is not continuous....If a topological group is a $T_0$ space then it is a $T_n$ space for $nleq 3frac {1}{2}.$... My example (which is NOT a Top'l Group although it is a topology ON a group), is $ T_1$ but not $ T_2$

There is no such a simple condition as that. Consider the map$$begin{array}{rccc}fcolon&mathbb{R}^2&longrightarrow&mathbb R\&(x,y)&mapsto&begin{cases}frac{xy}{x^2+y^2}&text{ if }(x,y)neq(0,0)\0&text{ otherwise.}end{cases}end{array}$$Then $f$ is discontinuous, but each map $xmapsto f(x,y_0)$ and $ymapsto f(x_0,y)$ is continuous.

    Even the partial derivatives exist everywhere, but $f$ is still discontinuous at $(0,0).$............+1
