  1. Bounded function

    In mathematics, a function f defined on some set X with real or complex values is called bounded if the set of its values is bounded. In other words, there exists a real number M such that | f ( x ) | ≤ M {\displaystyle |f(x)|\leq M} for all x in X. A function that is not bounded is said to be unbounded.If f is real-valued and f(x) ≤ A for all x in X, then the function is said to be bounded (from) above by A. If f(x) ≥ B for all x in X, then the function is said to be bounded (from) below by B. A real-valued function is bounded if and only if it is bounded from above and below.An important special case is a bounded sequence, where X is taken to be the set N of natural numbers. Thus a sequence f = (a0, a1, a2, ...) is bounded if there exists a real number M such that | a n | ≤ M {\displaystyle |a_{n}|\leq M} for every natural number n. The set of all bounded sequences forms the sequence space l ∞ {\displaystyle l^{\infty }} .The definition of boundedness can be generalized to functions f : X → Y taking values in a more general space Y by requiring that the image f(X) is a bounded set in Y.

  1. Bounded function

    In mathematics, a function f defined on some set X with real or complex values is called bounded, if the set of its values is bounded. In other words, there exists a real number M such that for all x in X. Sometimes, if f(x) ≤ A for all x in X, then the function is said to be bounded above by A. On the other hand, if f(x) ≥ B for all x in X, then the function is said to be bounded below by B. The concept should not be confused with that of a bounded operator. An important special case is a bounded sequence, where X is taken to be the set N of natural numbers. Thus a sequence f = is bounded if there exists a real number M such that for every natural number n. The set of all bounded sequences, equipped with a vector space structure, forms a sequence space. This definition can be extended to functions taking values in a metric space Y. Such a function f defined on some set X is called bounded if for some a in Y there exists a real number M such that its distance function d is less than M, i.e. for all x in X. If this is the case, there is also such an M for each other a, by the triangle inequality.
