In this paper, we study characterizations of differentiability for real-valued functions based on generalized differentiation. These characterizations provide the mathematical foundation for Nesterov's smoothing techniques in infinite dimensions. As an application, we provide a simple approach to image reconstructions based on Nesterov's smoothing and algorithms for minimizing differences of convex (DC) functions that involve the [Inline formula] regularization.
