Summary: | This article investigates the continuity of derivatives of real-valued functions from a topological perspective. This is achieved by the characterization of their sets of discontinuity. The same principle is applied to Gateaux derivatives and gradients in Euclidean spaces. This article also introduces a generalization of the derivatives from the perspective of the modulus of continuity and characterizes their sets of discontinuities. There is a need for such generalizations when dealing with physical phenomena, such as fractures, shock waves, turbulence, Brownian motion, etc. |
