In mathematics and, specifically, real analysis, the Dini derivatives (or Dini derivates) are a class of generalizations of the derivative. They were introduced by Ulisse Dini.

The upper Dini derivative, which is also called an upper right-hand derivative,[1] of a continuous function

is denoted by f+ and defined by

where lim sup is the supremum limit and the limit is a one-sided limit. The lower Dini derivative, f, is defined by

where lim inf is the infimum limit.

If f is defined on a vector space, then the upper Dini derivative at t in the direction d is defined by

If f is locally Lipschitz, then f+ is finite. If f is differentiable at t, then the Dini derivative at t is the usual derivative at t.

Remarks

  • Sometimes the notation D+f(t) is used instead of f+(t) and D+f(t) is used instead of f(t).[1]
  • Also,

and

  • So when using the D notation of the Dini derivatives, the plus or minus sign indicates the left- or right-hand limit, and the placement of the sign indicates the infimum or supremum limit.
  • On the extended reals, each of the Dini derivatives always exist; however, they may take on the values +∞ or −∞ at times (i.e., the Dini derivatives always exist in the extended sense).
