Periodic extensions and continuity

236 Views Asked by At

Consider the periodic extension $g$ of $f(x)=x^2-1$ where $x \in (0,1)$. Now suppose that $h(x)$ is a continuous function, does $h$ composed with $g$ have to be continuous? I don't think it should, because there are points missing from the domain of $h(g)$ right?

Hint: We know that $g$ is not continuous, since $$\lim_{x \to 0} g(x)$$ does not exist. (Why?) What happens if $h(x) = x$?
