Assume the homogeneous function is differentiable. Applying the multivariable chain rule to gives, for near ,
Setting proves Euler theorem for homogeneous functions:
Only positive near are needed, so the derivation remains valid even when a noninteger makes the printed phrase “all real ” require qualification.
