What is the proper use of Leibniz notation for one-sided derivatives?

252 Views Asked by At

The only notation I've seen has been restricted to either Lagrange's prime notation or Euler's $D$. Here are some of the variants: $$f'(a^+):=\lim_{x\to a^+}\frac{f(x)-f(a)}{x-a}$$ $$D_+f(x):=\lim_{h\to0^+}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$$ Is there a standard notation for the right- and left-handed derivatives using $\dfrac{df}{dx}$?

Here's a standard way to show it

$${{df} \over {dx}}|_{x=x^{\pm}_0}$$
