Statement flagged by 0 users
Reason: First published version. Defines a modulus of continuity as a nonnegative function on the nonnegative reals that tends to zero at the origin, in explicit epsilon-delta form. This is the gauge function appearing in the structure condition of the Crandall-Ishii-Lions comparison theorem; cited to that source.

Statement

Let R\mathbb{R} be the ordered field of real numbers and let T={tR:0t}T=\{t\in\mathbb{R}:0\le t\}.

A function ω:TR\omega:T\to\mathbb{R} is a modulus of continuity if the following two conditions hold.

1. 0ω(t)0\le\omega(t) for every tTt\in T.

2. For every εR\varepsilon\in\mathbb{R} with 0<ε0<\varepsilon there exists δR\delta\in\mathbb{R} with 0<δ0<\delta such that every tTt\in T with tδt\le\delta satisfies

ω(t)ε.\omega(t)\le\varepsilon .
