Let f:M(n,R)->M(n,R) and let f(A)=AAt. Then find derivative of f, denoted by df. So, Derivative of f(df) if exists, will satisfy lim H->0 (||f(A+H)−f(A)−df(H)||)/(||H||)=0.

Let f : M ( n , R ) M ( n , R ) and let f ( A ) = A A t . Then find derivative of f, denoted by d f .
So, Derivative of f ( d f ) if exists, will satisfy lim H 0 | | f ( A + H ) f ( A ) d f ( H ) | | | | H | | = 0.

We can try calculating f ( A + H ) f ( A ) and see what is left
f ( A + H ) f ( A ) = ( A + H ) ( A + H ) t A A t = A A t + A H t + H A t + H H t A A t = A H t + H A t + H H t
f ( A + H ) f ( A ) = ( A + H ) ( A + H ) t A A t = A A t + A H t + H A t + H H t A A t = A H t + H A t + H H t
The term H H t has norm H H t = H 2 and so it will go to zero even when divided by H . Thus our candidate is
d f A ( H ) = A H t + H A t
Now you can try and prove the limit is 0 explicitly.
