Is it possible to find a differentiable $f:\mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ such that

$ xf(x) \geq L \quad \forall x \in \mathbb{R} $

for an arbitrary constant $L>0$ ?

Hint. See what happens for $x = 0$.

At every other point $f(x) = L/x$ would work.

    No, $0y = 0$, there is nothing you can do about it.2012-09-26
