Abstract
In this paper, we obtain some integration results from subdifferential inclusions for primal lower nice functions by using the Moreau envelopes. A general result concerns an enlarged subdifferential inclusion. It says that, for g primal lower nice at x, the inclusion \(\partial f \subset g + \gamma \mathbb{B}\) around x entails that, for any γ′]0; γ[, f − g is γ′∈- Lipschitz continuous on an appropriate neighborhood of x.
