Consider functions $f$ which are involutions, i.e. \begin{align} f(f(x))=x\quad \implies \quad f'(x)f'(f(x))=1. \end{align} Under the (Legendre-like) contact transformation \begin{align} f(x)=F'(X),\ ...

$α,β,γ\in\Bbb R,$ $$f(α,β,γ):=\sin (α-β-γ) \sin (α+β-γ) \sin (α-β+γ) \sin (α+β+γ)$$ Clearly, the maximum is $f(\frac{π}{2},\frac{π}{2},\frac{π}{2})=1$. I guessed the minimum is $-1$, but$$f(α,β,γ)=f(-...

As the definition goes, a function $f(x)$ is even if $f(-x)=f(x)$ and it is odd if $f(-x)=-f(x)$, in which the domain is not paid enough attention to. For example, $f(x)=x^2$ is even for any symmetric ...
