Derivatives of separated sums on a product #
A function on a product E × F of the form φ ∘ Prod.fst + ψ ∘ Prod.snd, with φ : E → G and
ψ : F → G, is a separated sum: it depends on the two coordinates through two independent
functions. Its derivative at (a, b) is the coproduct φ'.coprod ψ' of the derivatives of the
two summands, so it vanishes exactly when both summands have vanishing derivative. This is the
first-order input for the study of critical points of separated sums, for instance of Morse
functions on a product manifold.

HasFDerivAt.comp_fst_add_comp_snd: the derivative of a separated sum is the coproduct of the derivatives of its summands.TauCeti.fderiv_comp_fst_add_comp_snd: the same for the totalized derivative.TauCeti.fderiv_comp_fst_add_comp_snd_eq_zero_iff: a separated sum of differentiable functions is critical at(a, b)exactly when both summands are critical ataandb.
The derivative of a separated sum φ ∘ Prod.fst + ψ ∘ Prod.snd at (a, b) is the coproduct
of the derivatives of φ at a and of ψ at b.
The totalized derivative of a separated sum of differentiable functions is the coproduct of the derivatives of its summands.
A separated sum of differentiable functions is critical at (a, b) exactly when both
summands are critical at a and at b. This is not a simp lemma: the @[simp] lemma
TauCeti.fderiv_comp_fst_add_comp_snd already rewrites its left-hand side to
(fderiv 𝕜 φ a).coprod (fderiv 𝕜 ψ b) = 0.
