Directed Subdifferentiable Functions and the Directed Subdifferential without Delta-Convex Structure

arXiv:1212.1508 · doi:10.1007/s10957-013-0401-x

Abstract

We show that the directed subdifferential introduced for differences of convex (delta-convex, DC) functions by Baier and Farkhi can be constructed from the directional derivative without using any information on the DC structure of the function. The new definition extends to a more general class of functions, which includes Lipschitz functions definable on o-minimal structure and quasidifferentiable functions.
