The authors derive formulas for computing the Clarke subdifferential of the distance function \(x\in X\mapsto d_ C(x)=\text{Inf}\{\| x- y\|: y\in C\}\). In connection with this question, they examine the role of the dimensionality of \(X\), the convexity of \(C\), and the (subdifferential) regularity of \(d_ C\).
