On constructive extractability of measurable selectors of set-valued maps

Pavel Osinenko, Stefan Streif

TL;DR

This article analyzes under which particular conditions selectors are constructively extractable, and derives an algorithm derived from the selector theorems, and applied in a computational study with a three-wheel robot model.

Abstract

This paper investigates the possibility of constructive extraction of measurable selector from set-valued maps which may commonly arise in viability theory, optimal control, discontinuous systems etc. For instance, existence of solutions to certain differential inclusions, often requires iterative extraction of measurable selectors. Next, optimal controls are in general non-unique which naturally leads to an optimal set-valued function. Finally, a viable control law can be seen, in general, as a selector. It is known that selector theorems are non-constructive and so selectors cannot always be extracted. In this work, we analyze under which particular conditions selectors are constructively extractable. An algorithm is derived from the theorem and applied in a computational study with a three-wheel robot model.

Key Result

Theorem 1

Let $\mathbb{X}$ be a measurable and $\mathbb{Y}$ a separable, completely metrizable topological space ($\mathbb{R}^n$ or any separable Banach space are examples), respectively. Let $F: \mathbb{X} \rightrightarrows \mathbb{Y}$ be a weakly measurable set-valued function with closed values. Then, $F$
