Perron-Frobenius theorem for multi-valued mappings (Q1209426): Difference between revisions

Let \(\Sigma^ n\) be the fundamental simplex of \(\mathbb{R}^ n\). We obtain sufficient conditions which guarantee the existence of the maximum eigenvalue of the following eigenvalue problem: \(\delta f(x)\in G(x)- \mathbb{R}_ +^ m\), where a single-valued mapping \(f: \Sigma^ n\to\mathbb{R}^ m\) as well as a multi-valued mapping \(G: \Sigma^ n\to\mathbb{R}_ +^ m\) are assumed to be given. In order to prove this result, the minimax reasoning is used. Consequences in the case \(G\) is single-valued are also given.
