Description
The notion of a local fractional derivative (LFD) was introduced recently for functions of a single variable. LFD was shown to be useful in studying fractional differentiability properties of fractal and multifractal functions. It was demonstrated that the local Holder exponent/ dimension was directly related to the maximum order for which LFD existed. We have extended this definition to directional-LFD for functions of many variables and demonstrated its utility with the help of simple examples.
