      For a linear space \(K\subset R\) (\(R\) -- the real line) over \(Q\) a function \(f: K\to R\) is said to be uniformly antisymmetric if for every \(x\in K\) there exists \(g(x)\in (0,1)\) such that \(| f(x+ h)- f(x- h)|\geq g(x)\) for every \(0< h< g(x)\), \(x\in K\). It is known that there exists a uniformly antisymmetric function \(f: R\to N\) (\(N\) -- the set of positive integers). The author shows, assuming \(K\) to be an uncountable linear space, that the range of any uniformly antisymmetric function \(f: K\to R\) must have necessarily at least four elements. The problem whether the range of uniformly antisymmetric functions can be finite remains open.
