    I did it without Limits: Lets call the equation given to us (A):
    differentiate (A) with respect to y and set y=1 ( we also know f'(1)=1), we get: (B) f'(1/x^x) - x^x.f(1/x^x) = 1
    Then set y=1 in (A) and differentiate it we get: (C) f'(x)=(lnx+1).( f'(1/x^x) - x^x.f(1/x^x) )
    from (B) and (C) we can deduce that f'(x)=lnx+1
    by integration we get f(x)=xlnx , and finally find that f(2020^2)/f(2020)=4040

    at 9:16 you can't just replace the value by saying "they are the same" as the result is 0/0 and the linearity does not work. What you can do is divide by 1= (f(ugly)-f(1))/(ugly - 1) which will have the same effect. Actually lim a/b = 1 is stronger that lim a = lim b and is what you need, especially here when we know lim a = lim b = 0.

    That was good. I saw one shortcut though from the definition of logarithmic differentiation to skip the integral. If f'(x)=(d/dx(x^x))/(x^x), we know that f(x)=ln(x^x)=xln(x).

    lim(a)/lim(b)=1 is much stronger than lim(a)=lim(b) - especially when you have that lim(a)=0 or ±∞ (as you do here). You can't substitute one limit for another, but you can multiply it into the equation (or in this case divide it in) to achieve the same result.

  • @chazzbunn7811
    @chazzbunn7811 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    My solution was much different. First, I differentiated both sides with respect to x remembering that f'(u(x)) = f'(u)*u'(x), giving me -f'(x) = (1+lnx)[ (x^x/y^y)f(y^y/x^x) - f'(y^y/x^x) ]. Then I let x = 1, giving me -1 = f(y^y) - (1/y^y)f'(y^y), which is a differential equation that I can use later. Then I let y = 1 to get f(1) = 0. Then I went back to my differential equation letting v = y^y/x^x getting f'(v) - (1/v)f(v) = 1.Solving that using an integrating factor we get f(v) = vln(v) + cv, using f(1) = 0 we get c = 0, hence f(x) = xlnx.

    Another aproach: let g(x)=f(x)/x. g(1)=0, g'(1)=1. And we get next equation: y*g(y) - x*g(x)=g(y^y/x^x).
    Also we have x*g(x)-y*g(y)=g(x^x/y^y) => g(x^x/y^y) = - g(y^y/x^x), so g(t) = - g(1/t).
    Pluging in y=1 we have x*g(x)=g(x^x) => g(x^x) + g(1/y^y) = g(x^x) - g(y^y) = x*g(x) - y*g(y) = g(x^x/y^y).
    Recall x^x = a, 1/y^y = b and we have:
    g(a)+g(b)=g(ab), g(1)=0, g'(1)=1 and f(x)=x*g(x).
    Let h(x) = exp(g(x)). => h(1)=1, h'(1)=1 and h(x)*h(y) = h(xy)
    Differentiate equation h(xy) = h(x)*h(y) in respect to x:
    y*h'(xy)=h'(x)*h(y) pluging in x=1 =>
    => y*h'(y)=h(y) => ln(h(y)) = ln(y)+c => h(x)=Cx, h(1)=1 =>
    => h(x)=x and f(x) = x*g(x) = x*ln(h(x)) = x*ln(x).

    At one point you had:

    Isn't it allowed (and simpler) to just integrate directly after this step? Substituting u = x^x and integral 1/u du = ln(u)

    My approach: Differentiate both sides of the functional equation with respect to y (holding x constant), which gives a functional equation for f'(y). Substitute in y = 1, using f(1) = 0. This gives an ODE, which you can solve using f'(1) = 1 to get f(t) = t ln t. Then you can just plug in 2020 to get the solution.
    Detailed steps:
    Substitute x=y to get f(1)=0
    Differentiate both sides of the functional equation with respect to y (holding x constant) → f'(y) = (ln y + 1) * ( f'(y^y/x^x) - x^x/y^y * f(y^y/x^x) )
    Substitute y=1 by using f'(1)=1 → 1 = f'(1/x^x) - x^x * f(1/x^x)
    Let t=1/x^x → 1 = f'(t) - 1/t * f(t)
    Solve the ODE in t → f(t) = t ln t + c t, for some constant c
    Solve for c using f(1) = 0 → c = 0
    f(t) = t ln t

    Or one could just fix x > 0 and implicitly differentiate both sides with respect to y, obtaining:
    f'(y^y/x^x) (1 + ln y) = (f(y)-f(x)) (1 + ln y) + f'(y).
    Now, w.l.o.g., one can impose y = x and use that f'(1) = 1 to get f'(y) = 1 + ln y, that is f(y) = y ln y + c. We can determine c by imposing f(1) = 0, so ultimately f(y) = y ln y

    I "solved" this problem in like 5 minutes or something but through educated guesses. The properties of f(x) really resembled the logarithmic functions and the fact that f'(1)=1 further tempted me to think that f(x) must have something to do with ln(x). f(x)=ln(x) didn't work so I thought it could be a nested function like f(x)=ln(g(x)), when I worked this out, it was kinda obvious that g(x)=x^x and it worked out pretty well.
    Should I feel guilty for doing this because I really feel like I cheated a little bit.

    How can we 'assume' y = x + h as shown in the video?

    • @eu7059
      @eu7059 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Because it is given that the domain of the function is positive reals. Given any positive real x and any h that approaches 0 (see that x cannot be 0 so even if h approaches 0 from below we should not have any problem) it is always a valid input for the function

    • @rupakchanda3503
      @rupakchanda3503 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Because x+h and y has same domain...so we can plug in a function anything that comes into it's domain 😃

      Is that really that much to think like assume and stuff? Simple hai it's a formulae and we are putting the value in it. The formula is the definition of derivative

      y and x are any positive real numbers so x + any other positive real number will work as y

    • @ConManAU
      @ConManAU 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Since the equation is true for all x and y in the domain, it must be true when you choose specific values of x and y. Any result you get from a specific x and y is then an implication of the original equation, but you also have to check whether that result is enough to satisfy the original equation.
      For example, if you find that the functional equation implies f(x) = x(C+ln x), then you know that all solutions must have that form but you still need to check whether it’s true for all values of C or only specific ones.

    yeah that's not how you solve a problem ... changing the limit of a variable ... with a function that goes with the same variable..... the only thing you could have done was to divide and multiply with that magic denominator that you added... and prove that the limit goes to 1+ln(x)

    Actually you don't even need calculus to solve the problem:
    f(y) - f(x) = (xˣ/yʸ) · f(yʸ/xˣ)
    ⇒ f(x) - f(x) = (xˣ/xˣ) · f(xˣ/xˣ)
    ⇒ f(1) = 0
    ∴ f(z) - f(1) = f(z) = f(zᶻ)/zᶻ
    ⇒ f(y) - f(x) = f(yʸ)/yʸ - f(xˣ)/xˣ = (xˣ/yʸ) · f(yʸ/xˣ)
    ⇒ f(y)/y - f(x)/x = f(y/x)/(y/x)
    ⇒ f(z)/z ∝ log(z)
    ⇒ f(z) ∝ z · log(z)
    ⇒ f(z²) ∝ z² · log(z²) = 2z² · log(z)
    ∴ f(z²)/f(z) = (2z²/z) · (log(z)/log(z)) = 2z
    So f(2020²)/f(2020) = 4040.
    Knowing that f'(1) = 1 is only necessary to work out the base of the logarithm (i.e., that f(z) = z · ln(z)), but this isn't required to solve the problem.
