      Definition 1.2.17. A multimap F is called lower semicontinuous at a point xX if for every open set VY such that F(x) ∩ V

there exists a neighborhood U(x) of x such that F(x′) ∩ V
for all x′ ∈ U(x).

      Definition 1.2.18. A multimap F is said to be lower semicontinuous (l.s.c.) if it is lower semicontinuous at every point xX.

      The lower semicontinuity also admits tantamount definitions.

      (a)the multimap F is l.s.c.;

      (b)for every open set VY, the set figure is open in X;

      (c)for every closed set WY, the set figure is closed in X;

      (d)if a system of open sets {Vj}j∈J forms a base for the topology of the space Y then for each Vj, the set figure is open in X;

      (e)if DY is an arbitrary set then figure;

      (f)if AX is an arbitrary set then figure.

      Proof. 1) the equivalence (a) ⇔ (b) is evident;

      2) the equivalences (b) ⇔ (c) and (c) ⇔ (e) can be proved similarly to the corresponding statements of Theorem 1.2.15;

      3) the equivalence (b) ⇔ (d) follows from the fact that each set Vj is open and from Lemma 1.2.4 (d);

      4) figure, but by virtue of Lemma 1.2.3(a) figure, hence figure. From Lemma 1.2.3(b) it follows: figure, therefore figure;

      5) figure but by virtue of Lemma 1.2.3 (b): figure, yielding figure. Applying figure to both sides of the last inclusion and using Lemma 1.2.3 (a) we get figure.

      In the case of metric spaces we may obtain the following convenient sequential characterization of the lower and upper semicontinuity.

      (a)For the lower semicontinuity of a multimap F : XP(Y) at a point x0X it is necessary and sufficient that:

      (*) for every sequence figure, xnx0 and each y0F(x0) there exists a sequence figure, ynF(xn) such that yny0.

      (b)For the upper semicontinuity of a multimap F : XP(Y) at a point x0X it is necessary, and in the case of the compactness of the set F(x0) it is also sufficient that:

      (**) for every sequences figure, xnx0 and figure, ynF(xn) the following relation holds: ϱY(yn, F(x0)) → 0.

      Proof. (a)(i) Let condition (*) holds. If the multimap F is not l.s.c. at the point x0 then there exist an open set VY such that F(x0) ∩ V

and a sequence
for all n = 1, 2, ... But these relations are in contradiction to the fact that we can, choosing a point y0F(x0) ∩ V, to find a sequence ynF(xn) which converges to it.

      (a)(ii) Let a multimap F be l.s.c. at a point x0 and a certain sequence figure, xnx0 and a point y0F(x0) be given. Consider the sequence of open balls figure, m = 1, 2, ... centered at the point y0. Let a number n1 be such that figure for all nn1. For every n < n1 choose ynF(xn) arbitrarily. Further, let us find a number n2n1 such that figure for all nn2. For every n, n1n < n2 choose ynF(xn) ∩ B1(y0).
