What do you use for drawing? TikZ?
What did you try?

So what did you get? Can you show us your code? So we can continue with that instead of beginning from zero.

The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

how to plot a curve

Post by Stefan Kottwitz »

Here's a quick drawing of the function image, using nodes and the to operation.

I used relative positions, by changing the values you can tweak the drawing.

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{positioning,decorations.markings,quotes}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[
dot/.style = {circle, draw, fill, inner sep=2pt},
decoration = {
markings,
mark=at position 0.5 with {\pgftransformscale{2}\arrow{stealth}}},
]
\node (gamma-a) [dot,"$\gamma(a)$"] {};
\node (gamma-b) [above right = 1cm and 4 cm of gamma-a,
dot,"$\gamma(b)$"] {};
\node (below) [below right = 0.5cm and 1 cm of gamma-a] {};
\node (above) [above left = 0.5cm and 1 cm of gamma-b] {};
\draw [postaction={decorate}] (gamma-a)
to [out=0, in=180] (below)
to [out=0, in=180] (above)
to [out=0, in=180] (gamma-b);
\node (gamma-t) [below left = 0.1cm and 2.2 cm of gamma-b]
{$\gamma(t)$};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

What is the exact error message?

Do you know which version of TikZ you are using? It should be at least TikZ 3. If it's older, I recommend to update, since TikZ has been improved a lot.
