If we have a differentiable function $ f:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^n $, does it have to be locally Lipschitz? It's obviously true for continuously differentiable functions, but what happens without that assumption?

5What about stuff like $x^2\sin(1/x^2)$? – zhw. Apr 17 '15 at 21:52

You can refer to another page, about Cantor function, which is differentiable but not locally Lipschitz. This function is not even weakly differentiable.

2The Cantor function is only a.e. differentiable, so this is irrelevant to the question. – Ian Apr 18 '15 at 01:40

1In fact it is a simpler problem. It is hard to find a everywhere differentiable function that is no-where loc Lipschitz continuous. It suffices to get a point x in the domain, that f is not locally Lipschitz near x. You can just take the example on this page.
