Abstract

In this paper, we study the existence of solutions for a time and state-dependent discontinuous nonconvex second order sweeping process with a multivalued perturbation. The moving set is assumed to be prox-regular, relatively ball-compact with a bounded variation. The perturbation of the normal cone is a scalarly upper semicontinuous convex valued multimapping satisfying a linear growth condition possibly time-dependent. As an application of the theoretical results, we investigate the theory of evolution quasi-variational inequalities.
