Computing | Continuous function A function f : D -> E, where D and E are cpos, is continuous if it is monotonic and f (lub Z) = lub f z | z in Z for all directed sets Z in D. In other words, the image of the lub is the lub of any directed image. All additive functions (functions which preserve all lubs) are continuous. A continuous function has a least fixed point if its domain has a least element, bottom (i.e. it is a cpo or a "pointed cpo" depending on your definition of a cpo). The least fixed point is fix f = lub f^n bottom | n = 0..infinity (1994-11-30). Source: The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing. |
