Are all functions that have a primitive differentiable?

Are all functions that have a primitive differentiable ?



For some background, I know that not all functions that are integrable are differentiable. For example:



$$
f =
begin{cases}
0 & x neq 0 \
1 & x = 0
end{cases}
$$



Is integrable over $mathbb{R}$, and $int_{a}^{b} f(x) dx = 0$. However, a function $F(x)$ such that $F'(x) = f(x) space forall x in mathbb{R}$ does not exist.



But I can't find a counterexample to the statement: "All functions that have a primitive are differentiable". These functions are guaranteed to be continuous due to the fundamental theorem of calculus, but not every continuous function is differentiable, hence the question.



Thanks !

A primitive for $f(x)=x^{1/3}$ is $F(x)=frac{3}{4}x^{4/3}$, but $f'(0)$ doesn't exist, because $$limlimits_{xto0}dfrac{f(x)-f(0)}{x-0}=limlimits_{xto0}dfrac{x^{1/3}}{x}=limlimits_{xto0}dfrac{1}{x^{2/3}}=infty$$

  • Almost. What you wrote is $f'(x)$ for $xne0$; you need an additional argument to ensure that $f'(0)$ does not exist.
