Knot points of typical continuous functions

Original · EN

It is well known that most continuous functions are nowhere differentiable. Furthermore, in terms of Dini derivatives, most continuous functions are nondifferentiable in the strongest possible sense except in a small set of points. In this paper, we completely characterise families S of sets of points for which most continuous functions have the property that such small set of points belongs to S. The proof uses a topological zero-one law and the Banach-Mazur game.
