A formula on the approximate subdifferential of the difference of convex functions

We give a formula on the ε−subdifferential of the difference of two convex functions. As a by-product of this formula, one recovers a recent result of Hiriart-Urruty, namely, a necessary and sufficient condition for global optimality in nonconvex optimisation.
