Abstract

In this paper, we study the structural and approximative properties of sets admitting an upper semicontinuous acyclic selection from an almost-best approximation operator. We study the questions of nonunique solvability of a nonlinear inhomogeneous Dirichlet problem on the basis of these properties.
