Definition of Boundedness of a Function

Let the domain of function f(x) be D, and X ⊂ D. If there exists a constant M such that for any x ∈ X, f(x) ≤ M, then f(x) is said to have an upper bound on X,…

Formula and explanation

Let the domain of function f(x) be D, and X ⊂ D. If there exists a constant M such that for any x ∈ X, f(x) ≤ M, then f(x) is said to have an upper bound on X, and M is an upper bound. If there exists a constant m such that for any x ∈ X, f(x) ≥ m, then f(x) is said to have a lower bound on X, and m is a lower bound. A function with both an upper bound and a lower bound is called a bounded function. Equivalently, there exists a constant K > 0 such that for any x ∈ X, |f(x)| ≤ K.
