This article studies the properties of regular and slowly varying functions in the sense of Karamata. The regular variation of a function is a one-sided local asymptotic property of a given function. The class of functions with such properties arose as a result of attempts to extend the class of functions with level asymptotics around a point to the class of functions with “slowly varying” coefficients rather than level functions. The properties of slowly varying functions are used in number theory, in the theory of functions of complex variables, in the applications of probability theory and mathematical statistics.
