How to calculate a Fréchet derivative?
$begingroup$
What is the standard algorithm for calculating a Fréchet derivative? i.e.
$f(x,y)=x^2y$
for $(x_0,y_0)inmathbb{R}^2$
derivatives partial-derivative

For smooth functions $mathbb{R}^n to mathbb{R}$, the Fréchet derivative is just the appropriate matrix of partial derivatives. For example, the above has $Df((x,y)) = (2xy, x^2)$.

What do you mean by algorithm? To the best of my knowledge, there is no real algorithm for this, any more than there is a standard algorithm for taking the "standard" derivative.

@qaphla well, I mean something like a step-by-step solution which can be applied on a particular type of function to calculate the Fréchet derivative, hence my example

Let $f:mathbb R^n to mathbb R^m$ be (Frechet) differentiable at $x in mathbb R^n$. The Frechet derivative of $f$ at $x$, which is a linear transformation from $mathbb R^n$ to $mathbb R^m$, is represented (with respect to the standard bases of $mathbb R^n$ and $mathbb R^m$) by the matrix
begin{equation*}
f'(x) = begin{bmatrix}
frac{partial f_1(x)}{partial x_1} & cdots & frac{partial f_1(x)}{partial x_n} \
vdots & ddots & vdots \
frac{partial f_m(x)}{partial x_1} & cdots & frac{partial f_m(x)}{partial x_n}
end{bmatrix}.
end{equation*}
Here $f_i$ is the $i$th component function of $f$. In the example you gave, you can compute these partial derivatives explicitly.
