Now, if our function space is sufficiently well behaved, the differentiation operator $\partial$ (which takes a function to its derivative) is a linear map from the function space to itself, and therefore an operator. A differential operator is then an element of the least subring that contains the simple operators and the differentiation ...

Originally, "differentials" and "derivatives" were intimately connected, with derivative being defined as the ratio of the differential of the function by the differential of the variable (see my previous discussion on the Leibnitz notation for the derivative).

2011年11月20日 · Please Help me derive the derivative of the absolute value of x using the following limit definition. $$\lim_{\Delta x\rightarrow 0}\frac{f(x+\Delta x)-f(x)}{\Delta x} $$ I have no idea as to how to get started.Please Help.

2020年8月30日 · So I want to know that is there a way to define an algebraic structure with the underlying set as the set of all differentiable functions and the operation of differentiation. And also if it's possible to define differentiation in such a manner, how to connect it with the analytical definition of differentiation.

2021年1月8日 · I have seen in many examples that using the fundamental definition of derivative only gives the correct results while checking for differentiability at a point. But why do we get wrong results while we directly apply the rules of differentiation and taking the limit at the point. Here is an example

This obvious is because you can proove such a thing from the definition above and from the definition of partial derivative. The partial derivative is defined when we try to understand how a function change if we move in a particular direction. I assume that you already know the definition of partial derivative.

2017年6月16日 · A tautology is an equivalence relation. The derivative can be defined as a function taking a variable argument, a function, to some other set. So as a function it's graph defines it, these two definitions yield the same graph for inputs. So in that sense they define the same definition of derivative. $\endgroup$ –

2022年9月14日 · I do agree that Hoffmann's definition of differentiation is different from the real analysis definition, but I still find your reasoning problematic. I would say that Hoffmann's differentiation is defined on "formal polynomials" rather than on polynomial functions. $\endgroup$ –
