A selection theorem for mappings with nonconvex nondecomposable values in \(L_p\)-spaces (Q1380913)

Let \(T\) be a bounded measure space, \(B\) a Banach space. A subset \(W\subset L_p(T,B)\), \(p\geq 1\) is said to be strongly semiconvex, if \(W= L_p(T,E_1)\cup L_p(T,E_2)\) for some nonempty closed convex subsets \(E_1,E_2\subset B\) with a convex union such that \(l(E_1)\leq c\) and \(l(E_2)\geq c\) for some real \(c\) and \(l\in B^*\). It is proved that strongly semiconvex subsets of \(L_p(T,B)\) are \(\alpha\)-paraconvex with \(\alpha<1\), so, by a result of \textit{E. Michael} [Math. Scand. 7, 372-376 (1960; Zbl 0093.12001)] every lsc multifunction defined on a paracompact space and with strongly semiconvex values admits a continuous selection. The paper contains two open questions.
