Abstract
The paper deals with calmness of a class of multifunctions in finite dimensions. Its first part is devoted to various calmness criteria which are derived in terms of coderivatives and subdifferentials. The second part demonstrates the importance of calmness in several areas of nonsmoooth analysis. In particular, we focus on nonsmooth calculus and solution stability in mathematical programming and in equilibrium problems. The derived conditions find a number of applications there.
