comment Is odd continuous function differentiable at $x=0$?
@N.S. Please do, I didn't want to put your solution into answers myself.

comment Solution of functional equation $f(x/f(x)) = 1/f(x)$?
Very nice! So if the function $f(x)$ is analytic, then you prove that $f(x)=1$. Assuming only that $f(x)$ is continuous, then the only possible other solutions are not analytic. That helps a lot.

comment Solution of functional equation $f(x/f(x)) = 1/f(x)$?
Right. So the domain of $g(x)$ must be an interval (e.g. not a union of two disjoint intervals). However, what if we only solve this on an interval [1, 10], let's say? I guess we would run into some contradictions with domains and ranges in the functional equation.

comment Solution of functional equation $f(x/f(x)) = 1/f(x)$?
Because $g(x)=1/x$ is also a solution of $g(g(x))$ and somehow it got eliminated. So something is not right. (Of course, it would get eliminated later anyway due to $g'(0)=1$, but that's not the point.)

N.S., you are right! $\frac{f(x)}{x} = \sin\frac{1}{x^2}$ which oscillates between -1 and 1 and so the limit does not exist. So this function is not differentiable at $x=0$. Thanks!

comment How to prove asymptotic limit of an incomplete Gamma function
I verified your steps, I think it's all correct. I am accepting your answer as it gives a simple proof.

comment How to prove asymptotic limit of an incomplete Gamma function
Thanks! As a matter of fact, I actually wanted to prove that $\gamma(z, x)\over\Gamma(z)$ goes to zero, but thought it'd be easier to do it with the upper incomplete gamma function.
