Hi, I am trying to apply ModelingToolkit.sparsejacobian() to my differential function including element-wise calls of the absolute function abs(). How can I appropriately define the derivative of abs() to be used with the Operation type in ModelingToolKit.jl? Simply using the standard method provid…

Differentiation method for element-wise "abs"-function applied on "Operation"-types in ModelingToolKit.jl?

This just means ModelingToolkit needs to register signbit. signbit is the derivative.
