Existence of Solutions for Degenerate Sweeping Processes

M. Kunze, Manuel D.P. Monteiro Marques

In this paper, the existence of solutions to a class of non-standard sweeping processes of the form

-u'(t) \in \partial\delta_{C(t)}(Au(t)) − u ′ ( t ) ∈ ∂ δ C ( t ) ( A u ( t ) )
is established. In contrast to the “classical” sweeping process with A = id, these problems may be degenerated, since there might be no solutions at all.
