A topological approach to multivalued Ascoli theory (Q1192091)

The author proves that every multivalued Ascoli theorem can be directly derived from the corresponding classical result. He also proves equivalent conditions for the even continuity of a set of multifunctions with respect to the lower, resp. upper semi-finite topology and the Vietoris-topology. As a further application he presents an improved sufficient condition for the local compactness of a family of multifunctions.
