Abstract

In this thesis, we consider a classical problem in real analysis: the construction of continuous but differentiable nowhere functions. This problem has a long history in mathematics starting with Weierstrass's first example in 1872. We use an approach developed by Kiesswetter in 1966 and find the generalized Kiesswetter's functions. We establish a criterion for such generalizations and show how such functions can be understood geometrically.
