Oct 17, 2022 at 22:53 comment added fedja @D.R. Indeed. It seems that AoPS is deleting very old posts nowadays. That's a pity. I wonder when MO will start doing that too :-(

May 16, 2014 at 14:11 comment added GH from MO @Todd: OK, next time I will be more careful in my wording.
May 16, 2014 at 14:10 comment added Todd Trimble @GHfromMO Just to be clear, the notion of closure in stackexchange websites is usually understood in the sense given here: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/10582/… . (The notion of deletion is discussed here: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/5221/…) Maybe you didn't mean closure in that sense, but again to be clear for everyone, what I'm saying is that neither closure (in this sense) nor putting the question on hold would be appropriate here.
May 16, 2014 at 13:57 comment added GH from MO @Todd: I did not mean that the question should be deleted. I only meant that it should be closed in the sense that there is an accepted answer for it.
May 16, 2014 at 13:48 comment added Todd Trimble In my opinion, this is a fine question for MO. (The answer, despite being a century old, is not necessarily taught in standard courses.) I do not recommend closure.

May 16, 2014 at 13:19 comment added GH from MO @fedja: Your comment should appear as an answer, and the question can be closed.
May 16, 2014 at 13:18 comment added fedja Yes, such functions exist. Denjoy constructed an example about a century ago. There are several ways of doing it, one of the most straightforward being the one I outlined on AoPS: artofproblemsolving.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?p=244776
May 16, 2014 at 13:17 comment added Liviu Nicolaescu @ GH from MO: Thanks. Since the derivative of a function satisfies the Darboux property, the question is equivalent to asking whether there exists a differentiable function with a dense set of critical points.
May 16, 2014 at 13:12 comment added GH from MO @Liviu: He explained that in the second line, in parentheses.
May 16, 2014 at 13:11 comment added Liviu Nicolaescu Could you define precisely what do you mean by nowhere monotonic?
