Abstract
In the paper, we provide the construction of a coincidence degree being a homotopy invariant detecting the existence of solutions of equations or inclusions of the form Ax ∈ F(x), x ∈ U, where [Formula: see text] is an m-accretive operator in a Banach space E, [Formula: see text] is a weakly upper semicontinuous set-valued map constrained to an open subset U of a closed set K ⊂ E. Two different approaches are presented. The theory is applied to show the existence of non-trivial positive solutions of some nonlinear second-order partial differential equations with discontinuities. This article is part of the theme issue 'Topological degree and fixed point theories in differential and difference equations'.
