We have proved this theorem, it is true, only when k > 0. If h = 0 it is, however, merely an obvious consequence of Theorem I. We come now at last to our most important result, though one which is, at bottom, less far reaching than Theorem II, namely THEOREM III. If e is an arbitrarily given positive constant, a continuous, real function g(x) exists such that 0 < g(x) < e and such that the syst...
