Continuous Nowhere Differentiable Functions

Marek Jarnicki is Professor of Mathematics at Jagiellonian University, Poland. His primary subject of research is complex analysis, particularly holomorphically invariant (contractible) pseudodistances and pseudometrics; domains of holomorphy with respect to special cases of holomorphic functions; continuation of holomorphic functions with restricted growth; and the extension of separately analytic functions.Peter Pflug is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Oldenburg, Germany. His primary subject of research is the theory of functions of several complex variables and complex analysis.

"This book is a thorough survey of a function that, at its announcement, took the mathematical world by storm. This book can be recommended for those whose research involves working in analysis. ... Of interest to many will be the open problems placed throughout the text, along with the extensive bibliography. ... a very detailed book which, if you work in classical analysis or topology or expect to work with students interested in this topic, belongs in your collection." (Robert W. Vallin, Mathematical Reviews, June, 2016) "By bringing together results scattered in various publications, some of them hardly to find or/and hardly to read (I mean old papers), presenting them in a unitary and rigorous way (using a modern language and style) with pertinent historical comments, the authors have done a great service to the mathematical community. The book presents interest for all mathematicians, but also for people (engineers, physicists, etc) having a basic background in calculus, interested in the evolution ... ." (S. Cobzas, Studia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai, Mathematica, Vol. 61 (1), 2016) "The book presents the construction, analysis, and theory of continuous nowhere differentiable functions in a comprehensive and accessible manner. ... This unique book will be of interest to students and researchers of analysis as a self-contained guide to the subject of continuous nowhere differentiable functions and its methods."
