TITLE: Uniformly differentiable functions
QUESTION [5 upvotes]: Note: Here all functions are $\mathbb R \to \mathbb R$. $Id$ denotes the identity function.
Let $g_i$ be a family of functions indexed by some (potentially uncountable) index set $I$.  Given a function $f$, we say $g_i$ are uniformly $o(f)$ if for every $e > 0$ there exists some $d > 0$ such that $|g_i(x)| \le |ef(x)|$ for all $i$ in $I$ and $x$ in $B_d (0)$.
Call a function $f$ uniformly differentiable if for every $x$ in $\mathbb R$, $f(x+h) = f(x) + L_x (h) + r_x (h)$ for some linear functions $L_x$ and some uniformly $o(Id)$ functions $r_x$.
When is a differentiable function uniformly differentiable?

REPLY [3 votes]: At first, we should have $L_x(h) =f'(x) h$ (this is the definition of the derivative, if we forget the uniformness.) 
I claim that $f'$ must be uniformly continuous (seen from summing up the relations for $(x, h) $ and $(x+h, - h) $), and this is enough (seen from Lagrange intermediate value theorem $f(x+h) =f(x) +h f'(z) $, with some $z$ between $x$ and $x+h $).
