Abstract: We present an order-theoretical fixed point theorem for increasing multivalued operators suitable for the method of sub-supersolutions and its application to the following multivalued quasi-variational inclusion: Let

O m e g a s u b s e t m a t h b b R^{N}

be a bounded Lipschitz domain and

W = W_{0}^{1, p} (O m e g a)

. Find

u i n W

such that for some measurable selection

e t a

of

f (c d o t, u, u)

it holds �egin{equation*} langle Eu,w-u angle + int_Omega eta(w-u) + K(w,u) - K(u,u) geq 0quad ext{for all }win W, end{equation*} where

E c o l o n W o W^{a} s t

is an elliptic Leray-Lions operator of divergence form,

f c o l o n O m e g a i m e s m a t h b b R i m e s m a t h b b R o m a t h c a l P (m a t h b b R)

is a multivalued bifunction being upper semicontinuous in the second and decreasing in the third argument, and

K (c d o t, u)

is a convex functional for each

u i n W

. Under weak assumptions on the data we will prove that there are smallest and greatest solutions between each pair of appropriately defined sub-supersolutions.
