Lipschitz functions are $o(|x|)$?












0












$begingroup$


Consider a Lipschitz function from $mathbb{R}tomathbb{R}$. Can we say that $lim_{xtoinfty}frac{f(x)}{|x|}=0$. Can we also say that $f$ is differentiable. Continuity is quite evident. But linear order is hard to come by. Any hints? Thanks beforehand.

$f(x)=x$ is a counterexample for the first part. Lipschitz functions need not be differentiable at every point but they are differentiable almost everywhere.

    No, consider the function $f(x)=|x|$ which is Lipschitz in $mathbb{R}$ (with constant $1$), not differentiable at $0$, and
    $$lim_{xtopminfty}frac{f(x)}{|x|}=pm 1.$$
