### Suppose that we have three $\mathbb{Z}\to \mathbb{Z}$ functions such as $f$, $g$ and $h$. How should $f$ and $h$ be so that f∘g∘h can be onto (surjective) given that $g$ is a one to one (injective) function?

### Lets have $y:\mathbb{R}\to {\mathbb{R}}^{2}$ and that $f:{\mathbb{R}}^{2}\to {\mathbb{R}}^{2}$, and lets assume that $f\left(y\left(x\right)\right)$ is given and that $y\left(x\right)=y\left({x}_{0}\right)+{\int }_{{x}_{0}}^{x}f\left(y\left(t\right)\right)dt$I'm a bit confused how there can be a function of $y\left(t\right)$ inside of the function definition for $y\left(x\right)$.I took the example that $y\left(x\right)=\left({x}^{2},x\right)$ and $f\left(y,z\right)=\left(y+z,y-z\right)$$⇒f\left(y\left(x\right)\right)=f\left({x}^{2},x\right)=\left({x}^{2}+x,{x}^{2}-x\right)$And now if we follow the definition of $y\left(x\right)$ we get:$y\left(x\right)=y\left({x}_{0}\right)+{\int }_{{x}_{0}}^{x}f\left(y\left(t\right)\right)dt$$y\left(x\right)=y\left({x}_{0}\right)+{\int }_{{x}_{0}}^{x}\left({t}^{2}+t,{t}^{2}-t\right)dt$$⇒y\left(x\right)=y\left({x}_{0}\right)+\left(\frac{1}{3}{t}^{3}+\frac{1}{2}{t}^{2},\frac{1}{3}{t}^{3}-\frac{1}{2}{t}^{2}\right){|}_{{x}_{0}}^{x}$$⇒y\left(x\right)=\left(\frac{1}{3}{x}^{3}+\frac{1}{2}{x}^{2}+{C}_{1},\frac{1}{3}{x}^{3}-\frac{1}{2}{x}^{2}+{C}_{2}\right)$Where is mistake?

### Let $f:\mathbb{D}\to \mathbb{D}$ (unit disk) be a holomorphic function with $f\left(0\right)=0,|{f}^{\prime }\left(0\right)|<1$. For ${f}_{n}=f\circ \cdots \circ f$, show that $\sum _{n=1}^{\mathrm{\infty }}{f}_{n}\left(z\right)$ converges uniformly on compact subsets in $\mathbb{D}$.I tried Schwarz lemma so that $|f\left(z\right)|\le |z|$, and I tried to use Weierstrass $M$ test, but I don't know how ${f}_{n}$ is bounded. How to solve this problem?

### Find the indefinite integral of $x×\left(5x-1{\right)}^{19}$ by substitutionMy try:$u=5x-1$, so $\frac{du}{dx}=5$, thus $dx=\frac{du}{5}$How to cancel out the $x$ in front?

### Chain rule of partial derivatives for composite functions.Function of the form$f\left({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}\right)$How do I find the partial derivatives$\frac{\mathrm{\partial }f}{\mathrm{\partial }y},\frac{\mathrm{\partial }f}{\mathrm{\partial }x}$How $f\left({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}\right)$ behaves. Assuming it should of the form$g\left(x,y\right)\cdot 2y\phantom{\rule{1em}{0ex}}\text{or}\phantom{\rule{1em}{0ex}}h\left(x,y\right)\cdot 2x$

### Two continuous functions $f\left(x\right)$ and $g\left(x\right)$, is it possible that I expand $f\left(g\left(x\right)\right)$ at $g\left(0\right)$ using a series of $g\left(x\right)$?For example,$f\left(g\left(x\right)\right)=f\left(g\left(0\right)\right)+{f}^{\prime }\left(g\left(0\right)\right)g\left(x\right)+\frac{{f}^{″}\left(g\left(0\right)\right)}{2}{g}^{2}\left(x\right)+\cdots$In my case, $g\left(x\right)={e}^{-{x}^{2}}\left(0\le x\le 1\right)$.

### Trying to calculate the value of $\frac{{\pi }^{4}}{90}$. Although I know the exact value (which I found on google to be $\frac{{\pi }^{4}}{90}$) but I wanted to derive it by myself. While doing so, I arrived at this rather peculiar expression: $C=\frac{7{ℼ}^{4}}{720}-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{P}{2}$where $C$ is the value of the composite zeta function at $2$ and $P$ is the prime zeta function at $2$. My question is this. What will be the value of $C$?

### The question is:$f\left(x\right)=\frac{x}{x-1}$$g\left(x\right)=\frac{1}{x}$$h\left(x\right)={x}^{2}-1$Find $f\circ g\circ h$ and state its domain.The answer the textbook states is that the domain is all real values of $x$, except $±1$ and $±\sqrt{2}$.However surely the domain excludes $0$ as well, since $g\left(0\right)$ is undefined.

### Thorem: If $f\left(x\right)$ is continuous at $L$ and $\underset{x\to a}{lim}g\left(x\right)=L$, then $\underset{x\to a}{lim}f\left(g\left(x\right)=f\left(\underset{x\to a}{lim}g\left(x\right)\right)=f\left(L\right)$.Proof: Assume $f\left(x\right)$ is continuous at a point $L$, and that $\underset{x\to a}{lim}g\left(x\right)=L$.$\mathrm{\forall }ϵ>0,\mathrm{\exists }\delta >0:\left[|x-L|<\delta \phantom{\rule{thickmathspace}{0ex}}⟹\phantom{\rule{thickmathspace}{0ex}}|f\left(x\right)-f\left(L\right)|<\epsilon \right]$.And $\mathrm{\forall }\delta >0,\mathrm{\exists }{\delta }^{\prime }>0:\left[|x-a|<{\delta }^{\prime }\phantom{\rule{thickmathspace}{0ex}}⟹\phantom{\rule{thickmathspace}{0ex}}|g\left(x\right)-L<\delta \right]$.So, $\mathrm{\forall }\delta >0,\mathrm{\exists }{\delta }^{\prime }>0:\left[|x-a|<{\delta }^{\prime }\phantom{\rule{thickmathspace}{0ex}}⟹\phantom{\rule{thickmathspace}{0ex}}|f\left(g\left(x\right)\right)-f\left(L\right)|<ϵ\right]$.$\underset{x\to a}{lim}g\left(x\right)=L$ so $f\left(\underset{x\to a}{lim}g\left(x\right)\right)=f\left(L\right)$.

### Need to find $f\left(x{\right)}^{\prime }$ while $f\left(x\right)=ln\left(x+\sqrt{{a}^{2}+{x}^{2}}\right)$I have $f\left(x{\right)}^{\prime }=\frac{1}{\left(x+\sqrt{{a}^{2}+{x}^{2}}\right)}\cdot \left(1+\frac{2x}{2\sqrt{{a}^{2}+{x}^{2}}}\right)$, but can't simplify.I want get $\frac{1}{\sqrt{{a}^{2}+{x}^{2}}}$

### Derivative of this trig function is:If chain rule is not applied to this function like this because the function is "composite" which is why it should be done as the first variant, then how was chain rule altered for this function in the first variant?

### A quantity $z$ is called a functional of $f\left(x\right)$ in the interval $\left[a,b\right]$ if it depends on all the values of $f\left(x\right)$ in $\left[a,b\right]$. What is the difference between a functional and a composite function?

### Let $A$, $B$ & $C$ sets, and left $f:A\to B$ and $g:B\to C$ be functions. Suppose that $f$ and $g$ have inverses. Prove that $g\circ f$ has an inverse, and that $\left(g\circ f{\right)}^{-1}={f}^{-1}\circ {g}^{-1}$.Assuming that f and g have reverse, ${f}^{-1}=h$ and ${g}^{-1}=s$ with $h:B\to A$, $s:C\to B$.from that above i infer that the inverse of $\left(g\circ f\right)$ is $\left(s\circ g\right):C\to A$ that is ${g}^{-1}\circ {f}^{-1}=\left(g\circ f{\right)}^{-1}$; Hence for proof of $\left(g\circ f{\right)}^{-1}={f}^{-1}\circ {g}^{-1}$, proceed as before, only swapping functions, right?

### If, for $n=0$, $1$, $2$, … you're given ${f}_{0}\left(x\right)=\frac{1}{2-x}$ and ${f}_{n+1}={f}_{0}\left({f}_{n}\left(x\right)\right)$, how do you prove that your formula for ${f}_{n}\left(x\right)$ is correct by mathematical induction?I have computed the first few terms:${f}_{1}\left(x\right)=\frac{2-x}{3-2x}$${f}_{2}\left(x\right)=\frac{3-2x}{4-3x}$${f}_{3}\left(x\right)=\frac{4-3x}{5-4x}$${f}_{4}\left(x\right)=\frac{5-4x}{6-5x}$Then,${f}_{n}\left(x\right)=\frac{n+1-nx}{n+2-\left(n+1\right)x}$How to prove this with mathematical induction as it has variable $x$ in it as well as the $n$.
