I need to find the local extrema points of the following function:
$f(x) = xcdotsin(x) ^ {sin(x)}$



I was already able to derive to this function:
$f'(x) = x (ln(sin(x))+1)cos(x)sin(x)^{sin(x)}+sin(x)^ {sin(x)}$

  • find $x$ where $f'(x)$ is equal to $0$. Then assess the sign change while crossing the roots

  • This function is defined in $bigcuplimits_{ninmathbb Z}[2npi,2npi+pi]$.

  • You first have to take into considerations the extreme points of the intervals
    – Federico

  • Then your equation $f'=0$ inside these intervals is highly non-linear and trascendental...

  • I don't think much can be said, except numerically

The domain of $f$ is where $sin x>0$ i.e. $$bigcup_{nin Bbb Z}(2npi ,2npi +pi)$$ on this domain by equaling the derivative to zero we obtain $$sin x^{sin x}=0\text{or}\ x(1+ln sin x)cos x+1=0$$where $sin x^{sin x}=0$ is always impossible and the second equation can only be solved numerically. Here is a sketch of the functionenter image description here
