Gradient ranges of bumps on the plane

For a C1-smooth bump function b: ℝ2 → ℝ we show that the gradient range ∇ b(ℝ2) is the closure of its interior, provided that ∇b admits a modulus of continuity ω = ω(t) satisfying ω(t)√ → 0 as t ↘ 0. The result is a consequence of a more general result about gradient ranges of bump functions b: ℝn →...
