On the products of unilaterally continuous regulated functions (Q2501045)

A real function of a real variable is called regulated if it has both unilateral limits at each point. The paper includes several necessary conditions for a function to be a product of two regulated and unilaterally continuous functions. For example, Theorem 2 says that if \(f\) is such a product, then under assumption that the closure of the level set \(f^{-1}(0)\) is uncountable we have: \(E(f)= \text{cl}_b(A)\cap\{x\in\mathbb{R}: f(x)\neq 0\}\) is nowhere dense in \(\text{cl}_b(A)\) for each nonempty perfect set \(A\), where \(\text{cl}_b(A)\) denotes the set of all points in \(\text{Cl}(A)\), which are bilateral condensation points of \(A\).
