_ _ _. . . pigraph Why a book on differential inclusions?

There is a great variety of motivations that led mathematicians to study dynamical systems having velocities not uniquely determined by the state of the system, but depending loosely upon it, i.e., to replace differential equations x'= f(x)

by differential inclusions x'EF(x)

when F is the set-valued map that associates to the state x of the system the set of feasible velocities. Each one of these motivations offered a partial and biased view of differential inclusions, but all together contributed to the creation of a wealth of problems to a subject whose vitality is at present beyond doubts. The first purpose of this book is to report on the common tools and ideas which were devised and proposed by those who were attracted by this field either for its own intrinsic interest and beauty or for its potential for applications in different fields . But, besides this array of mathematical and physical motivations, social and biological sciences should provide many instances of differential inclusions. Indeed, if deterministic models are quite convenient for describing systems that arise in physics, mechanics, engineering and even, in microeconomics, their use for explaining th
