Abstract

A new approach to local analysis of nonsmooth mappings from one Banach space into another is suggested. The approach is essentially based on the use of set-valued mappings of a special kind, called fans, for local approximation. Convex sets of linear operators provide an example of fans. Generally, fans can be considered a natural set-valued extension of linear operators. The first part of the paper presents a study of fans; the second is devoted to calculus and includes extensions of the main theorems of classical calculus.
