S. Thomas, S. J. Agronsky, J. G. Ceder, and T. L. Pearson gave an equivalent definition of the real Baire class 1 functions by characterizing their graph. In this paper, using their results, we consider the following problem: let $T$ be a given subset of $[0,1]\\times\\mathbb{R}$. When can we find a function $f:[0,1]\\rightarrow\\mathbb{R}$ such that the accumulation points of its graph are exactly the points of $T$? We show that if such a function exists, we can choose it to be a Baire-2 function. We characterize the accumulation sets of bounded and not necessarily bounded functions separately. We also examine the similar question in the case of Baire-1 functions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-12-01T18:34:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "accumulation points", "real functions", "real baire class", "equivalent definition", "pearson gave" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
