What is the derivative of vector transpose?



for example, if I want to minimize function which is written like this $frac12 x^Tx-b^Tx$ subject to $xinBbb R^n$. What will be the derivative of this function?

          The function is

          The total derivative with respect to $boldsymbol{x}$ is given as



          $$dF = frac12 dboldsymbol{x}^Tboldsymbol{x}+frac12 boldsymbol{x}^Tdboldsymbol{x}-boldsymbol{b}^Tdboldsymbol{x}$$
