Шаблон:Short description In mathematics, the Clarke generalized derivatives are types generalized of derivatives that allow for the differentiation of nonsmooth functions. The Clarke derivatives were introduced by Francis Clarke in 1975.[1]

Definitions

For a locally Lipschitz continuous function <math>f: \mathbb{R}^{n} \rightarrow \mathbb{R},</math> the Clarke generalized directional derivative of <math>f</math> at <math>x \in \mathbb{R}^n</math> in the direction <math>v \in \mathbb{R}^n</math> is defined as <math display="block"> f^{\circ} (x, v)= \limsup_{y \rightarrow x, h \downarrow 0} \frac{f(y+ hv)-f(y)}{h}, </math> where <math>\limsup</math> denotes the limit supremum.

Then, using the above definition of <math>f^{\circ}</math>, the Clarke generalized gradient of <math>f</math> at <math>x</math> (also called the Clarke subdifferential) is given as <math display="block> \partial^{\circ}\! f(x):=\{\xi \in \mathbb{R}^{n}: \langle\xi, v\rangle \leq f^{\circ}(x, v), \forall v \in \mathbb{R}^{n}\}, </math> where <math>\langle \cdot, \cdot\rangle</math> represents an inner product of vectors in <math>\mathbb{R}.</math> Note that the Clarke generalized gradient is set-valued—that is, at each <math>x \in \mathbb{R}^n,</math> the function value <math>\partial^{\circ}\! f(x)</math> is a set.

More generally, given a Banach space <math>X</math> and a subset <math>Y \subset X,</math> the Clarke generalized directional derivative and generalized gradients are defined as above for a locally Lipschitz contininuous function <math>f : Y \to \mathbb{R}.</math>
