The authors prove existence of solutions for the nonlocal problem NEWLINENEWLINE\[NEWLINE\begin{aligned} & x^{\prime }(t) \in F(t,x(t))\text{ for a.e. }t\in [ 0,T], \\ NEWLINE& x(0) = Mx \end{aligned}NEWLINE\]NEWLINE NEWLINEin a separable Hilbert space \(H\) where \(F:[0,T]\times H\rightarrow 2^{H}\) and \(M:C\left( [0,T],H\right) \rightarrow H\) is a bounded linear operator. \ \(H\) is assumed to be compactly embedded in a Banach space \(E\) such that for some \(q>0\), \(\left\| w\right\| _{E}\leq q\left\| w\right\| _{H}\) for all \(w\in H\), \(F\) is nonempty, convex, closed and bounded valued, measurable in \(t\), closed and upper semicontinuous in \(x\) and satisfies a boundedness condition, and there exists \(R>0\) such that for almost all \(t\in [ 0,T]\), all \(w\in H\) with \(\left\| w\right\| _{H}=R\) and all \(y\in F(t,w)\), it holds \(\left\langle w,y\right\rangle \leq 0\). The proof is a nontrivial extension of the approach in [the third author et al., Set-Valued Var. Anal. 22, No. 3, 639--656 (2014; Zbl 1312.34097)] and makes use of a number of familiar tools such as the Kuratowski-Ryll-Nardzewski Theorem, a Scorza-Dragoni type result, Urysohn's lemma, the Dunford-Pettis theorem and the Ascoli-Arzel theorem. The final section contains a nontrivial example to which the result applies but [loc. cit.] does not, namely a Cauchy multi-point problem associated to a nonlocal diffusion process.
