  • When is $F(x)=x^asin(x^{-b})$ with $F(0)=0$ of bounded variation on $[0,1]$?

Show $f(x) = x^2 sin (x^{-3/2}), xin (0,1] $, $f(0) = 0$ is of bounded variation.






Try



$forall P = {0 = x_0 < cdots, < x_n = 1}$, $exists c_k in (x_{k-1}, x_k)$ s.t. $f(x_k) - f(x_{k-1}) = f'(c_k) (x_k - x_{k-1})$$(because MVT)$.



Thus,



$$
V(f, P) = sum |f(x_k) - f(x_{k-1})| = sum |f'(c_k)| (x_k - x_{k-1})
$$



I think the next step should allow me to prove the RHS is less than some value. However, observing the following,



$$
f'(x) = begin{cases} 2x sin(x^{-3/2}) - frac{3}{2} x^{-1/2} cos(x^{-3/2}) & (x neq 0 ) \ 0 & (x=0) end{cases}
$$



I have $|f'(x)| le 2x + frac{3}{2}x^{-1/2}$, but RHS is not bounded on $[0,1]$.



Any help, including one that excludes the use of improper integral, will be appreciated.

          Here is the more general version of the question you are asking for:



          When is $F(x)=x^asin(x^{-b})$ with $F(0)=0$ of bounded variation on $[0,1]$?



          For your example, just take $a=2$ and $b=3/2$
