Clarke Subgradients of Stratifiable Functions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We establish the following result: if the graph of a (nonsmooth) real-extended-valued function f:mathbbRnomathbbRcup+infty is closed and admits a Whitney stratification, then the norm of the gradient of f at xindomf relative to the stratum containing x bounds from below all norms of Clarke subgradients of f at x. As a consequence, we obtain some Morse-Sard type theorems as well as a nonsmooth Kurdyka-L ojasiewicz inequality for functions definable in an arbitrary o-minimal structure.
