Abstract

We present a direct construction of a topological degree for multivalued vector fields IF in a Banach space, where F takes closed, bounded, convex (or non convex) values and the set-valued range of F is precompact in the Pompeiu–Hausdorff metric. Some useful properties of our topological degree are established. Applications to fixed point theory including a Borsuk’s type result are considered.
