Problem 80AE

Nonconvergence to f Consider the function

$$f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll} e^{-1 / x^{2}} & \text { if } x \neq 0 \\ 0 & \text { if } x=0 \end{array}\right.$$

a. Use the definition of the derivative to show that $$f^{\prime}(0)=0$$.

b. Assume the fact that $$f^{(k)}(0)=0$$, for k = 1, 2, 3, .... (You can write a proof using the definition of the derivative.) Write the Taylor series for f centered at 0.

c. Explain why the Taylor series for f does not converge to f for $$x \neq 0$$.
