While the conventional "existence of a limit" in 1D is nice (and as a nice side effect gives us the derivative expression too), the general definition is more powerful and it is useful to contrast …

Differentiability refers to the ability to take the derivative of a function and differentiation is the act of taking the derivative.

Dec 11, 2024 · I think it is the definition of Gateaux differentiability simplified for two variable functions but I'm not sure. Also, the continuity of partial derivatives implies differentiability but …

The reason Rolle's theorem talks about differentiabilty on the open interval $ (a,b)$ is that it is a weaker assumption than requiring differentiability on $ [a,b]$. Normally, theorems might try to …

If $f (x)$ is differentiable then the derivatives from the left and right must be equal at $x=0$. The derivative of $\dfrac {x} {1+x}$ at $x=0$ is $1$. The derivative ...

Jan 18, 2017 · An excellent reference for the properties of Lipschitz functions is Lectures on Lipschitz Analysis by Juha Heinonen. The differentiability a.e. is Theorem 3.2, page 19. I state …

Differentiability means that the function has a derivative at a point. Continuity means that the limit from both sides of a value is equal to the function's value at that point.

Why does differentiability imply continuity, but continuity does not mean differentiability? I am more interested in the part about a continuous function not being differentiable.

Jul 20, 2019 · Thanks for this answer. Would you happen to have a resource that would help me practise using this definition? and proving differentiability of functions of two variables?
