Fr ´Echet Differentiability of Vector-Valued Functions
This chapter shows that if a Banach space with a Fréchet smooth norm is asymptotically smooth with modulus o(tⁿ logⁿ⁻¹(1/t)) then every Lipschitz map of X to a space of dimension not exceeding n has many points of Fréchet differentiability. In particular, it proves that two real-valued Lipschitz functions on a Hilbert space have a common point of Fréchet differentiability. The chapter first presents the theorem whose assumptions hold for any space X with separable dual, includes the result that real-valued Lipschitz functions on such spaces have points of Fréchet differentiability, and takes into account the corresponding mean value estimate. The chapter then gives the estimate for a “regularity parameter” and reduces the theorem to a special case. Finally, it discusses simplifications of the arguments of the proof of the main result in some special situations.
