Abstract

Given a set-valued map \(F:X\rightarrow \mathcal{P }(Z)\) from a topological space \(X\) to a metric space \((Z,d)\), we study distances from the set of selectors \({Sel}(F)\) to spaces of continuous functions and Baire one functions. For this we use some indexes related with the oscillation in single-valued maps that measure in some sense how far a set-valued map is from being upper or lower semicontinuous.
