Abstract: The concept of adjusted sublevel set for a quasiconvex function was introduced in cite{AuHa05} and the local existence of a norm-to-weak${}^{\ast }$ upper semicontinuous base-valued submap of the normal operator associated to the adjusted sublevel set was proved. When the space is finite dimensional, a globally defined upper semicontinuous base-valued submap is obtained taking the intersection of the unit sphere, which is compact, with the normal operator, which is closed. Unfortunately, this technique does not work in the infinite dimensional case. We propose a partition of unity technique to overcome this problem in Banach spaces. Application is given to a quasiconvex quasioptimization problem through the use of a new existence result for generalized quasivariational inequalities which is based on the Schauder fixed point theorem.
