Compare Bede-Gal Between dH Differentiability of Set Valued Functions

Wildan Bagus Wicaksono, Mohamad Muslikh

Abstract


This paper presents a comparative study between the Bede--Gal differentiability and the dH-differentiability for set-valued functions whose values belong to the family of nonempty compact convex subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$. The Bede--Gal derivative, originally introduced for fuzzy and interval-valued functions, is redefined for the set-valued framework and analyzed through its metric properties. Meanwhile, the dH-derivative is formulated in terms of the Pompeiu-Hausdorff metric, allowing differentiability without requiring the existence of the Hukuhara or generalized Hukuhara difference. We establish several results clarifying the relationship between these two concepts, including sufficient conditions under which a function that is Bede-Gal differentiable is also dH-differentiable, and conversely. Illustrative examples are provided to demonstrate cases where one type of differentiability exists while the other fails. The comparison emphasizes that dH-differentiability provides a broader and more flexible framework, extending the applicability of the differential calculus in set-valued analysis.
