Lipschitz function which is surjective on subset implies that the subset is dense

Let $f: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^n$ be a Lipschitz-function. Suppose $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ is an $(n-1)$-connected subset such that $f(A) = \mathbb{R}^n$. I would like to show that $A\subseteq ...

Reference request for equivalent Lipschitz smoothness conditions

For an open set $Z\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$, let $f: Z\mapsto \mathbb{R}$ be a continuously differentiable function on $Z$, and let $L>0$ be fixed. Also, suppose that (a) $f$ is nonconvex and (b) $f$ ...

Lipschitz continuity of singular values

How smooth are the singular values of a matrix $F$ in terms of entries of $F$? I am hoping for Lipschitz continuity, but was not able to find it.

Does this Osgood-like condition imply continuity?

Let us consider a bounded, Borel function $F\colon \mathbb R^d \to \mathbb R^d$. Assume it satisfies the following Osgood-like condition: $$\tag{O} \boxed{\vert \langle F(x) - F(y), x-y \rangle\...

Continuous functions and infinity

Suppose $f(x)$ is continuous on $\mathbb{R}$, for $\forall \delta>0, \forall x\in\mathbb{R}, \lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}f(x+n\delta)=+\infty$. Is it correct that $\lim_{x\rightarrow+\infty}f(x)=+\...

Find a continuous function with a prescribed continuity set

It's known that for a function $f:\mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ the set of points of discontinuity must be an $F_{\sigma}$. In the book "Understanding Analysis" by Abbott is stated in page 128 ...
