Fréchet derivatives of quadratic maps #
A quadratic map Q on a finite-dimensional normed space over a complete field is strictly
differentiable, and its derivative at x is the linear map h ↦ polar Q x h
(QuadraticMap.hasStrictFDerivAt). This upgrades Mathlib's line derivative of a quadratic map
(QuadraticMap.hasLineDerivAt), which requires no topology on the domain, to a Fréchet
derivative.
The proof writes Q as x ↦ B x x for a bilinear map B, which is possible because the
space is free (LinearMap.BilinMap.toQuadraticMap_surjective); no assumption on the
characteristic of the field is needed.
The file also builds a smooth function with prescribed value, derivative and constant symmetric
second derivative at a point (TauCeti.exists_contDiff_apply_eq_fderiv_eq_fderiv_fderiv_eq).
A quadratic map on a finite-dimensional space is strictly differentiable, with derivative

The derivative of a quadratic map on a finite-dimensional space at x is

A smooth function with prescribed value, derivative and symmetric second derivative at a
point, the latter constant: z ↦ c + α (z - y) + (1 / 2) • B (z - y) (z - y).
