Review text

A sufficient condition which assures the existence of solutions of a multivalued differential equation \((1)\quad\dot x(t)\in F(t,x(t)), x(0)=a\) where x,\(a\in H\), finite-dimensional Hilbert space, is proved. It is assumed that F(t,x) is a non-empty, compact set for all (t,x) and satisfies the Carathéodory-type conditions. The solution \(x(\cdot)\) is understood as an element of the Sobolev space \(W^{1,2}\). If \(A\subset H\) is a non-empty, compact, convex set then for every \(a\in A\) the set \(K_ a\) of all solutions to (1) is non-empty, compact in \(W^{1,2}\) (the proof uses Ky-Fan's fixed point theorem) and the dependence \(a\to K_ a\) is upper hemicontinuous in the weak topology of \(W^{1,2}\).
