We consider a system of birational functional equations (BFEs) (or finite-difference equations at w=m \in Z) for functions y(w) of the form: y(w+1)=F_n(y(w)), y(w):C \to C^N, n=deg(F_n(y)), F_n \in (\bf Bir}(C^N), where the map F_n is a…

This paper presents a general study of one-dimensional differentiability for functionals defined on convex domains that are not necessarily open. The local approximation is carried out using affine functionals, as opposed to linear…
