I have been doing some excercises on total variation when the following questions came up to my mind:
(1) Let $f$ be continuous on the interval $[0,1]$ and be of bounded variation. Is it true that its total vatiation function $TV(f_{[0,x]})$ is uniformly continuous? i.e. Is it true that for $\forall\space\epsilon>0$, $\exists\space\delta>0$, such that for arbitrary interval $[a,b]$ with $|b-a|<\delta$, we have $TV(f_{[a,b]})<\epsilon$?
(2) Alternatively, if it is not uniformly continuous, can I say that for $\forall\space{}x\in[0,1]\text{ and } \forall\space\epsilon>0$ , $\exists\space\text{ nondegenerate interval }I \text{ such that }x\in{}I\text{ and } TV(f_{I})<\epsilon$?
Thank you!
