The reflection u maps to a+b-u of a closed interval [a,b] into itself is a well-defined involutive isometry, continuous, and differentiable with derivative -1.
In the setting of Single-Variable Calculus on an Interval, let with , so that is an interval containing the two distinct points and , by Basic Facts about Intervals of the Real Line (v).
There is exactly one map with for every .
In the remaining clauses, is this map.
For every , .
For all , .
Read as a map from into , is continuous on , as in The Real Line: Standing Notation and Background for Calculus on Intervals (vi).
Read as a map from into , is differentiable, derivatives being taken relative to , with derivative at every , in the sense of Derivative of a Real Function on an Interval (ii).
