Continuity of Projections, Negatives and Differences, and Derivatives on Subintervals

The coordinate projections of a product metric space are continuous on every subset, and so is a continuous map of the first coordinate; negatives and differences of continuous vector- and matrix-valued maps are continuous; and a differentiable vector- or matrix-valued map on [a,b] restricts to a differentiable map on a subinterval, with the restricted derivative.

Statement

In the settings of Single-Variable Calculus on an Interval and Euclidean Space and Real Matrices: Standing Notation, continuity at a point relative to a subset and continuity on a subset are as in Continuous Map Between Metric Spaces (i) and Continuous Map Between Metric Spaces (ii).

Let (X,dX)(X,d_{X}), (Y,dY)(Y,d_{Y}) and (Z,dZ)(Z,d_{Z}) be metric spaces, let X×YX\times Y carry the product metric dX×Yd_{X\times Y}, a metric by The Product Metric is a Metric (i), and let π1:X×Y→X\pi_{1}:X\times Y\to X and π2:X×Y→Y\pi_{2}:X\times Y\to Y be the projections of Projection, Evaluation and Currying Maps (i). For every S⊆X×YS\subseteq X\times Y, the restrictions π1∣S:S→X\pi_{1}|_{S}:S\to X and π2∣S:S→Y\pi_{2}|_{S}:S\to Y are continuous on SS. If moreover A⊆XA\subseteq X and g:A→Zg:A\to Z is continuous on AA, then there is exactly one map k:A×Y→Zk:A\times Y\to Z with k(x,y)=g(x)k(x,y)=g(x) for all x∈Ax\in A and y∈Yy\in Y, and kk is continuous on A×YA\times Y.

Let (X,d)(X,d) be a metric space, let S⊆XS\subseteq X and let p,q∈Np,q\in\mathbb{N}, with dEd_{E} on Rq\mathbb{R}^{q} and dp×qd_{p\times q} on Mp×q(R)\mathcal{M}_{p\times q}(\mathbb{R}) as in Euclidean Space and Real Matrices: Standing Notation (ii) and Euclidean Space and Real Matrices: Standing Notation (vi). Let x,y:S→Rqx,y:S\to\mathbb{R}^{q} and A,B:S→Mp×q(R)A,B:S\to\mathcal{M}_{p\times q}(\mathbb{R}), and let −x-x, x−yx-y, −A-A and A−BA-B be the maps u↦−x(u)u\mapsto-x(u), u↦x(u)−y(u)u\mapsto x(u)-y(u), u↦−A(u)u\mapsto-A(u) and u↦A(u)−B(u)u\mapsto A(u)-B(u) of Maps Formed Pointwise from Vector and Matrix Operations (i). For every point s0∈Ss_{0}\in S: if xx is continuous at s0s_{0} relative to SS, then so is −x-x, and if moreover yy is, then so is x−yx-y; if AA is continuous at s0s_{0} relative to SS, then so is −A-A, and if moreover BB is, then so is A−BA-B. If xx is continuous on SS, then so is −x-x, and if moreover yy is, then so is x−yx-y; if AA is continuous on SS, then so is −A-A, and if moreover BB is, then so is A−BA-B.

Let a,c,d,b∈Ra,c,d,b\in\mathbb{R} with a≤c<d≤ba\le c<d\le b, and let p,q∈Np,q\in\mathbb{N}. Let x:[a,b]→Rqx:[a,b]\to\mathbb{R}^{q} be differentiable, derivatives being taken relative to [a,b][a,b], with derivative x′:[a,b]→Rqx':[a,b]\to\mathbb{R}^{q}. Then the restriction x∣[c,d]:[c,d]→Rqx|_{[c,d]}:[c,d]\to\mathbb{R}^{q} is differentiable, derivatives being taken relative to [c,d][c,d], and its derivative is (x∣[c,d])′=x′∣[c,d](x|_{[c,d]})'=x'|_{[c,d]}. The same holds for a differentiable A:[a,b]→Mp×q(R)A:[a,b]\to\mathcal{M}_{p\times q}(\mathbb{R}) in place of xx.
