Glaeser's continuity theorem

In mathematical analysis, Glaeser's continuity theorem, is a characterization of the continuity of the derivative of the square roots of functions of class $C^{2}$ . It was introduced in 1963 by Georges Glaeser,^[1] and was later simplified by Jean Dieudonné.^[2]

The theorem states: Let $f\ :\ U\rightarrow \mathbb{R} ^{{+}}$ be a function of class $C^{{2}}$ in an open set U contained in $\mathbb {R} ^{n}$ , then ${\sqrt {f}}$ is of class $C^{{1}}$ in U if and only if its partial derivatives of first and second order vanish in the zeros of f.
