The authors continue the investigations of Borel measurability of multifunctions of two variables, initiated by the second author [Zesz. Nauk. Wyższ. Szk. Pedagog. Bydgoszczy, Probl. Mat. 5/6, 83-96 (1986; Zbl 0612.54019)]. The following are generalizations of some results in this paper. Proposition 1: Let \((X,T_ X)\) be a topological space, \((Y,d)\) a metrizable space with distance function \(d\) and \((Z,T_ Z)\) a third topological space. Let \(F:X\times Y\to Z\) be a multifunction with \(T_ X\)-lower semicontinuous \(y\)-sections. Then for each \(n\geq 1\) the multifunction \(F_ n:X\times Y\to Z\) defined by the formula \(F_ n(u,v)=F(u,K(v,2^{-n}))=\bigcup_{y\in K(v,2^{-n})}F(u,y)\subset Z\), where \(K(v,r)\) denotes the open ball centered at \(v\) and whose radius is \(r>0,\) is jointly \(T_ X\otimes T_ Y\)-lower semicontinuous and thus \(T\)-lower semicontinuous for any topology \(T\supset T_ X\otimes T_ Y\) on \(X\times Y.\) Proposition 2: Let \((X,T_ X)\) be an arbitrary topological space, \((Y,T_ Y)\) a metrizable one and \((Z,T_ Z)\) a perfectly normal topological space. If \(F:X\times Y\to Z\) is a \(T_ Z\)-compact valued multifunction with \(T_ X\)-lower semicontinuous \(y\)-sections and \(T_ Y\)-upper semicontinuous \(x\)-sections, then \(F\) belongs to the \(T_ X\otimes T_ Y\)-upper class 1. A solution of the problem 2 raised in the above cited paper is given by Proposition 3: Let \((X,T_ X)\) be a topological space, \((Y,T_ Y)\) a metrizable space and \((Z,T_ Z)\) a perfectly normal fulfilling: For each \(G\in T_ Z\), open in \(Z\), there is some (depending on \(G\) in general) countable index set \(C(G)\subset I\times Z\times (0,\infty)\) such that \(G\) is representable as a union: \(G=\bigcup\{K_ i(z,r):(i,z,r)\in C(G)\}\). If \(F:X\times Y\to Z\) is a multifunction with \(T_ X\)-lower semicontinuous \(y\)-sections and \(T_ Y\)-upper semicontinuous \(x\)- sections, then it belongs to the \(T_ X\otimes T_ Y\)-lower class 1.
