On second order differential inclusion driven by quasi-variational–hemivariational inequalities

Abstract

In this paper we investigate an evolution problem (SDQHVI) which constitutes of the second order differential inclusion driven by a quasi-variational–hemivariational inequality (QHVI) with perturbation operator in Banach spaces. Unlike the existing literature on differential inclusions, on the one hand, the second order differential operator is not assumed to be compact; on the other hand, the solvability of the inequality is proved under non-coercive condition. More precisely, first, it is shown that the solution set of the QHVI with perturbation operator is nonempty, bounded, closed and convex under the KKM theorem and the Minty formulation. Then, an associated multivalued map with the solution set of the QHVI with perturbation operator is introduced, and we prove that it is upper semicontinuous and measurable. Finally, by utilizing Kakutani–Fan–Glicksberg fixed point theorem, a weak topology technique and properties of strong continuous cosine operators, we prove the existence of mild solutions for SDQHVI.
