Solution: 2015-14 Local and absolute maximum

Find all positive integers $$n$$ such that the following statement holds:

Let $$f:\mathbb{R}^n\to \mathbb {R}$$ be a differentiable function that has a unique critical point $$c$$. If $$f$$ has a local maximum at $$c$$, then $$f(c)$$ is an absolute maximum of $$f$$.
