Description
Book SynopsisFocuses on the difficult question of existence of Frchet derivatives of Lipschitz maps of Banach spaces into higher dimensional spaces. This book provides a bridge between descriptive set theory and the classical topic of existence of derivatives of vector-valued Lipschitz functions.
Trade Review"The book is well written--as one would expect from its distinguished authors, including the late Joram Lindestrauss (1936-2012). It contains many fascinating and profound results. It no doubt will become an important resource for anyone who is seriously interested in the differentiability of functions between Banach spaces."--J. Borwein and Liangjin Yao, Mathematical Reviews Clippings "[T]his is a very deep and complete study on the differentiability of Lipschitz mappings between Banach spaces, an unavoidable reference for anyone seriously interested in this topic."--Daniel Azagra, European Mathematical Society "We should be grateful to (the late) Joram Lindenstrauss, David Preiss, and Jaroslav Tiser for providing us with this splendid book which dives into the deepest fields of functional analysis, where the basic but still strange operation called differentiation is investigated. More than a century after Lebesgue, our understanding is not complete. But thanks to the contribution of these three authors, and thanks to this book, we know a fair share of beautiful theorems and challenging problems."--Gilles Godefroy, Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society
