Contractive multifunctions, fixed point inclusions and iterated multifunction systems. (English) Zbl 1115.47043
The authors draw some simple consequences from the contraction mapping theorem for set-valued contractions [cf., e.g., H. Covitz and S. B. Nadler, Isr. J. Math. 8, 5–11 (1970; Zbl 0192.59802)] and give an application to an integral inclusion.
