An argument of a function that satisfies the condition

A point of differentiability of a function is a smooth point; generally speaking, the converse is not true. If a one-sided derivative exists at a smooth point, an ordinary derivative exists as well.


Comments

Notice that any odd function, continuous or not, has as a smooth point. For an additive function (i.e. for all ), all points are smooth.

See also Smooth function.
