mathematics Mathematics is an area of knowledge that includes the topics of numbers, formulas and related structures, shapes and the spaces in which they are contained, and quantities and their changes. These topics are represented in modern mathematics ...
, a function f: \mathbb \to \mathbb is symmetrically continuous at a point ''x'' if :\lim_ f(x+h)-f(x-h) = 0. The usual definition of continuity implies symmetric continuity, but the converse is not true. For example, the function x^ is symmetrically continuous at x=0, but not continuous. Also, symmetric differentiability implies symmetric continuity, but the converse is not true just like usual continuity does not imply differentiability.
