On Set-Valued Derivations Modulo K

Eliza Jabłońska

Let

Y Y
be a real vector metric space and
K\subset Y K ⊂ Y
be a closed convex cone with
K\cap (-K)=\{0\} K ∩ ( − K ) = { 0 }
. We study properties of set-valued maps
F\colon\mathbb{R}\to 2^Y\setminus\{\emptyset\} F  ⁣ : R → 2 Y ∖ { ∅ }
which are additive modulo
K K
, i.e.
F(x+y)+K=F(x)+F(y)+K F ( x + y ) + K = F ( x ) + F ( y ) + K
for
x,y\in \mathbb{R} x , y ∈ R
, and satisfy condition
F(xy)+K=xF(y)+yF(x)+K F ( x y ) + K = x F ( y ) + y F ( x ) + K
for
x,y\in [0,\infty) x , y ∈ [ 0 , ∞ )
(or
x,y\in \mathbb{R} x , y ∈ R
). Such maps are called set-valued derivations modulo
K K
and generalize the well-known single-valued derivations of
\mathbb{R} R
.
