example of Lipschitz condition


Statement 1.

Let f(x)=x2. Then f satisfies the Lipschitz conditionMathworldPlanetmath on [a,b] for finite real numbers a<b.

Proof.

We want to show that for some real constant L, and for all x,y[a,b],

|x2-y2|L|x-y|.

Let x,y[a,b]. Clearly if x=y, the above inequalityMathworldPlanetmath holds, so assume xy. Since x and y are interchangable in the above equation, it can be assumed without loss of generality that x<y.

Since f is differentiableMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath on (a,b), by the mean-value theorem, there is a z(x,y) such that

f(x)-f(y)x-y=f(z),

that is,

x2-y2x-y=2z.

Taking the modulus of both sides gives

|x2-y2||x-y|=2|z|.

Finally, to find L it is necessary to consider all possible values of z:

|x2-y2||x-y|=2|z|
2sup{|z|:z(a,b)}
=2max{|a|,|b|}.

Thus, for all x,y[a,b],

|f(x)-f(y)|2max{|a|,|b|}|x-y|

as required.∎

Statement 2.

Additionally, L=2max{|a|,|b|} is the Lipschitz constant of f.

Proof.

Assume |b||a|, since if |b|<|a|, it is possible to consider -f instead of f. This also implies that b>0. Let ε>0 be sufficiently small that a<b-ε and that higher powers of ε can be ignored. Now,

|f(b)-f(b-ε)||b-(b-ε)|=b2-(b-ε)2b-(b-ε)
=b2-b2+2bε-ε2b-b+ε
=2bεε
=2b.

By the assumptionPlanetmathPlanetmath above, b=max{|a|,|b|}. Thus, since b,b-ε[a,b] and by the definition of the Lipschitz condition,

L|f(b)-f(b-ε)||b-(b-ε)|=2max{|a|,|b|}.

However, the result from the previous proof gives

|f(b)-f(b-ε)||b-(b-ϵ)|L2max{|a|,|b|}.

Combining these inequalities provides

2max{|a|,|b|}L2max{|a|,|b|},

and the result follows by trichotomy.∎
