    The author analyzes the fundamental role of slowly varying functions (SVF) in the Zygmund sense. Specifically: (1) He derives a necessary and sufficient condition for a positive measurable function to be slowly varying in the Zygmund sense; (2) analytical equivalences involving Zygmund SVF's in probabilistic setting are related to necessary and sufficient analytical conditions for classical limit theorems; (3) the role of Zygmund SVF's in recent generalizations of regular variation is presented as a unifying principle.
