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

Optimization and Control 2015-07-07 v2

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.
