Abstract:

Let $I = [0,1]$, and let $D$ denote the points of continuity of a function $f:I \to R$. A Darboux function maps each connected set to a connected set. A function is Baire-$1$ (Baire-$.5$) if preimages of open sets are ${F_\sigma }$-sets (${G_\delta }$-sets). We show that if $f$ is a Darboux Baire-$.5$ function, then the graph of the restriction of $f$ to $D$ is a dense subset of the whole graph of $f$. It is already known that there is a Darboux Baire-$1$ function which does not satisfy this conclusion.
