Summary:
In this paper a fixed point theorem due to Covitz and Nadler for contraction multivalued maps, and the Schaefer’s theorem combined with a selection theorem due to Bressan and Colombo for lower semicontinuous multivalued operators with decomposables values, are used to investigate the existence of solutions for boundary value problems of fourth-order differential inclusions.
