Class Notes

Let U, V and W be two normed finite dimensional vector spaces and let f:V\rightarrow W be a function defined on a neighborhood of the point x

Definition:

We say that f is differentiable (diffable) if there is a linear map L so that

\lim_{h\rightarrow0}\frac{|f(x+h)-f(x)-L(h)|}{|h|}.

In this case we will say that L is a differential of f and will denote it by df_{x}.

Theorem

If f:V\rightarrow W and g:U\rightarrow V are diffable maps then the following asertions holds:

1)df_{x} is unique.

2)d(f+g)_{x}=df_{x}+dg_{x}

3)If f is linear then d(f)_{x}=f

4)d(f\circ g)_{x}=df_{g(x)}\circ dg_{x}

5)For every scalar number \alpha it holds d(\alpha f)_{x}=\alpha df_{x}
