It isn't clear what you mean by ##\frac{d}{dx} y##. Are you differentiating a vector ##y## with respect to to another vector ##x## ? (If so, how do you define that sort of derivative?) Or are you differentiating a vector of functions of the scalar variable ##x## with respect to ##x## ?

You say that ##x## has exactly N samples. If ##x## is vector of constants, I don't what you would mean by differentiating with respect to ##x##. If you have some function ##f(x)## and some set of constants ## c_1,c_2,...## you can talk about forming the derivatives ## f'(c_1), f'(c_2),...##.
 
Thank you so much for your reply,
You are right, here x is a vector and H is a matrix, and i want to differentiate Hx with respect to x

Here's the complete problem

that's how far i have gone, probably it's wrong.

You still haven't explained what ##x## is.
 
Thread 'Direction Fields and Isoclines'
I sketched the isoclines for $$ m=-1,0,1,2 $$. Since both $$ \frac{dy}{dx} $$ and $$ D_{y} \frac{dy}{dx} $$ are continuous on the square region R defined by $$ -4\leq x \leq 4, -4 \leq y \leq 4 $$ the existence and uniqueness theorem guarantees that if we pick a point in the interior that lies on an isocline there will be a unique differentiable function (solution) passing through that point. I understand that a solution exists but I unsure how to actually sketch it. For example, consider a...
