Notes

This node uses the Fréchet derivative. One-variable derivatives and Jacobian matrices are special presentations; weaker directional or Gâteaux derivatives need not imply Fréchet differentiability.

Permalink to relation

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

At each point of a differentiable function, the defining first-order approximation determines a unique continuous linear derivative.

How to interpret this relation type

Apply a standard functorial or canonical construction whose output is not merely a reduct of the input and is not generally an equivalent presentation of the same object.
