I am looking at the function ϕ(t):=√2t|log|logt||(t>0,t≠1).
How is this function equal to t↦√2tloglogt for large t and equal to t↦√2tloglog1/t for small t?
I can see that if t>e, then |log|logt||=loglogt so the first case holds. But I cannot see why for small t>0, we would have |log|logt||=loglog1/t. I would greatly appreciate any help.
Answer
Note that log1/t=logt−1=−logt, so loglog1/t=log(−logt). Now if t≤1, then logt≤0, so |logt|=−logt. Therefore log|logt|=log(−logt)=loglog1/t.
