Mixed semicontinuous mappings and their applications to differential inclusions (Q5926372): Difference between revisions

The authors deal with a class of multivalued mappings called mixed semicontinuous (m.s.c.). Such mappings are upper semicontinuous (u.s.c.) at some points and lower semicontinuous at the remaining points. The main result of the paper is contained in the following theorem: Let \(K: S\rightarrow \text{dec}(T,X)\) be a m.s.c. mapping. Then \(K(\cdot)\) admits an u.s.c. multiselection \(M(\cdot)\). This multiselection can be chosen in the form \[ M(s)=l(s)\cdot \chi _{D(s)}+K(s)\cdot (1-\chi _{D(s)}), \] where \(l:S\rightarrow L^1(T,X)\) is a properly constructed Borel selection of \(K(\cdot)\). Moreover, if the sets \(K(s)\cdot (1-\chi _{D(s)})\) are convex, then the multiselection \(M(\cdot)\) is convex-valued. Here, dec\((T,X)\) denotes the family of all nonempty, closed and decomposable sets in \(L^1(T,X)\), where \(L^1(T,X)\) is the separable Banach space of Bochner integrable functions \(u:T\rightarrow X\). A set \(K\subset L^1(T,X)\) is said to be decomposable if and only if for every \(u,v \in K\) and any Lebesgue measurable set \(A\subset T\) we have \(u\cdot \chi _A +v\cdot (1-\chi _A) \in K\), where \(\chi _A\) stands for the characteristic function of \(A\).
