Michael selections and Castaing representations with cadlag functions
Michael's selection theorem implies that a closed convex nonempty-valued mapping from the Sorgenfrey line to a euclidean space is inner semicontinuous if and only if the mapping can be represented as the image closure of right-continuous selections of the mapping. This article gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the representation to hold for cadlag selections, i.e., for selections that are right-continuous and have left limits. The characterization is motivated by continuous time stochastic optimization problems over cadlag processes. Here, an application to integral functionals of cadlag functions is given.
