Rademacher’s theorem in Banach spaces without RNP

Abstract

Abstract We improve a Duda’s theorem concerning metric and w *-Gâteaux differentiability of Lipschitz mappings, by replacing the σ-ideal 𝓐 of Aronszajn null sets [ARONSZAJN, N.: Differentiability of Lipschitzian mappings between Banach spaces, Studia Math. 57 (1976), 147–190], with the smaller σ-ideal 𝓐 of Preiss-Zajíček null sets [PREISS, D.—ZAJÍČEK, L.: Directional derivatives of Lipschitz functions, Israel J. Math. 125 (2001), 1–27]. We also prove the inclusion C̃ o ⊂ 𝓐, where C̃ o is the σ-ideal of Preiss null sets [PREISS, D.: Gâteaux differentiability of cone-monotone and pointwise Lipschitz functions, Israel J. Math. 203 (2014), 501–534].
