Sep 30, 2023 at 6:51 comment added Markus Scheuer @IlyaBogdanov: I see. Many thanks for your reply and thank you very much for this elegant answer. I have taken the liberty of writing a slightly more detailed version of your response to MSE.
Sep 27, 2023 at 8:43 comment added Ilya Bogdanov @epi163sqrt When dealing with the $i$th summand, you apply all $\partial/\partial x_j$ with $j\neq i$ first, that’s easy. Then it remains to apply $\partial/\partial x_i$, and, perhaps, it would be more clear if I wrote the result using the logarithmic derivative, as $\displaystyle \left(\frac{n-1}{A_i}-2\sum_{j\neq i}\frac1{A_i-A_j}\right) A_i^{n-1} \prod_{j\neq i}\frac1{(A_i-A_j)^2}$.
Sep 26, 2023 at 19:39 comment added Markus Scheuer @IlyaBogdanov: Very nice answer and instructive approach. (+1) May I ask how you arrived at the expression with factor $n-1$? Is there a known formula, or is the expression tool based?
