least and greatest value of function


Theorem.

If the real function f is

  1. 1.

    continuousMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath on the closed intervalDlmfMathworldPlanetmath[a,b]  and

  2. 2.

    differentiableMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath on the open interval  (a,b),

then the functionMathworldPlanetmath has on the interval  [a,b]  a least value and a greatest value.  These are always got in the end of the interval or in the zero of the derivativePlanetmathPlanetmath.

Remark 1.  If the preconditions of the theorem are fulfilled by a function f, then one needs only to determine the values of f in the end points a and b of the interval and in the zeros of the derivative f inside the interval; then the least and the greatest value are found among those values.

Remark 2.  Note that the theorem does not require anything of the derivative f in the points a and b; one needs not even the right-sided derivative in a or the left-sided derivative in b.  Thus e.g. the function  f:x1-x2,  fulfilling the conditions of the theorem on the interval  [-1, 1]  but not having such one-sided derivatives, gains its least value in the end-point  x=-1  and its greatest value in the zero  x=0  of the derivative.

Remark 3.  The least value of a function is also called the absolute minimum and the greatest value the absolute maximum of the function.
