Iterated derivatives under a linear change of variables #
For a continuous linear equivalence e, the iterated derivative of f ∘ e at y is the iterated
derivative of f at e y precomposed with e in every slot. Hence the norm of the i-th
derivative of f ∘ e at y is at most ‖e‖ ^ i times that of f at e y, and the norm of the
i-th derivative of f at e y is at most ‖e⁻¹‖ ^ i times that of f ∘ e at y. A Hölder
bound for the i-th derivative of f ∘ e transfers to one for the i-th derivative of f, at
the cost of the factor ‖e⁻¹‖ ^ (i + r). The second Fréchet derivative of f ∘ e at y, applied
to v and w, is that of f at e y applied to e v and e w; when e takes values in the
scalar field, it is e v * e w times the second derivative of f. No differentiability of f
is needed.
In particular, for a rescaling z ↦ f (a • z) the i-th derivative at x is a ^ i times that
of f at a • x, again without any differentiability of f
(TauCeti.iteratedFDeriv_comp_const_smul_apply). A Hölder bound on a set t for the i-th
derivative of f transfers to the rescaled map on any set that rescaling maps into t
(HolderOnWith.iteratedFDeriv_comp_const_smul).
Iterated derivatives under a linear change of variables. For a continuous linear
equivalence e, the i-th derivative of f ∘ e at x is the i-th derivative of f at e x
precomposed with e in every slot. Unlike ContinuousLinearMap.iteratedFDeriv_comp_right, no
differentiability of f is needed.
Second derivatives under a linear change of variables. For a continuous linear
equivalence e, the second derivative of f ∘ e at z, applied to v and w, is the second
derivative of f at e z applied to e v and e w. No differentiability of f is needed.
Second derivatives along a one-dimensional linear change of variables. For a continuous
linear equivalence e onto the scalar field and a function f of one variable, the second
derivative of f ∘ e at z, applied to v and w, is e v * e w times the second derivative
of f at e z. For instance, e may be the coordinate PiLp.equivOfUnique p 𝕜 fun _ : ι ↦ 𝕜 of
a one-dimensional L^p space such as EuclideanSpace ℝ (Fin 1). No differentiability of f is
needed.
Under a linear change of variables e, the i-th derivative of f ∘ e at y is bounded by
‖e‖ ^ i times the i-th derivative of f at e y.
Under a linear change of variables e, the i-th derivative of f at e y is bounded by
‖e⁻¹‖ ^ i times the i-th derivative of f ∘ e at y.
Hölder continuity of iterated derivatives under a linear change of variables. If the
i-th derivative of f ∘ e is r-Hölder with constant C on e ⁻¹' s, then the i-th
derivative of f is r-Hölder on s with constant C ‖e⁻¹‖ ^ i ‖e⁻¹‖ ^ r.
Iterated derivatives of a rescaling. The i-th derivative of z ↦ f (a • z) at x is
a ^ i times the i-th derivative of f at a • x. Unlike Mathlib's
iteratedFDeriv_comp_const_smul, no differentiability of f is needed.
The norm of the i-th derivative of z ↦ f (a • z) at x is ‖a‖ ^ i times that of the
i-th derivative of f at a • x. No differentiability of f is needed.
If the i-th derivative of f is r-Hölder with constant C on t and rescaling by a
maps s into t, then the i-th derivative of z ↦ f (a • z) is r-Hölder on s with
constant ‖a‖ ^ i C ‖a‖ ^ r. No differentiability of f is needed.
Linear isometries on either side preserve differences of iterated derivative fields, without any differentiability assumption on the function.
Composing with linear isometries preserves a local Hölder bound on an actual derivative field, including at points where the function need not be differentiable.
