Set-Valued Analysis"An elegantly written, introductory overview of the field, with a near perfect choice of what to include and what not, enlivened in places by historical tidbits and made eminently readable throughout by crisp language. It has succeeded in doing the near-impossible—it has made a subject which is generally inhospitable to nonspecialists because of its ‘family jargon’ appear nonintimidating even to a beginning graduate student." —The Journal of the Indian Institute of Science "The book under review gives a comprehensive treatment of basically everything in mathematics that can be named multivalued/set-valued analysis. It includes...results with many historical comments giving the reader a sound perspective to look at the subject...The book is highly recommended for mathematicians and graduate students who will find here a very comprehensive treatment of set-valued analysis." —Mathematical Reviews "I recommend this book as one to dig into with considerable pleasure when one already knows the subject...‘Set-Valued Analysis’ goes a long way toward providing a much needed basic resource on the subject." —Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society "This book provides a thorough introduction to multivalued or set-valued analysis...Examples in many branches of mathematics, given in the introduction, prevail [upon] the reader the indispensability [of dealing] with sequences of sets and set-valued maps...The style is lively and vigorous, the relevant historical comments and suggestive overviews increase the interest for this work...Graduate students and mathematicians of every persuasion will welcome this unparalleled guide to set-valued analysis." —Zentralblatt Math |

... valued maps and inclusions. They also arise when we wish to treat a problem qualitatively, by looking for solutions common to a set of data, sharing the same (qualitative) properties. Set-valued ... map associating with x the point f(x) when ...
... valued map G (nonvacuity, continuity and differentiability in a suitable sense, and so on.) We shall call G the marginal map. It is no wonder that game theory and mathematical economics use set- valued maps in a natural way. 7. Another ...
... valued maps yielded the way to single-valued maps: A set-valued map was viewed at the time as a single-valued map from a set to the power set of another set. However, as it turned out, the structures exported to power sets were too poor ...
... valued map F, since we have introduced a way to implement the tangency for any subset of a normed space. Therefore, in the framework of a given problem, we can regard a tangent cone to the graph of the set-valued map F at some point (x ...
