On continuous functions with no unilateral derivatives
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Volume 38 (1988) no. 2, pp. 43-62.

We construct a family of continuous functions on the unit interval which have nowhere a unilateral derivative finite or infinite by using De Rham’s functional equations. Then we show that for any α [0,1) there exists an f α in any Lipschitz class of order less than one such that the set of knot points of f α has a measure α.

On construit une famille de fonctions continues sur l’intervalle [0,1] qui n’a nulle part de dérivée unilatérale finie ou infinie utilisant les équations fonctionnelles de De Rham. Puis on démontre que, pour tout α[0,1), il existe une f α dans toute classe lipschitzienne d’ordre inférieur à 1 tel que la mesure de l’ensemble de nœud points de f α est égale à α.
