On almost everywhere differentiability of the metric projection on closed sets in ,
Let be a closed subset of and let denote the metric projection (closest point mapping) of onto in -norm. A classical result of Asplund states that is (Fréchet) differentiable almost everywhere (a.e.) in in the Euclidean case . We consider the case and prove that the th component of is differentiable a.e. if and satisfies Hölder condition of order if .
