Feb 25, 2023 at 8:14 comment added Emily I've also written a bit about this here
Feb 25, 2023 at 8:12 comment added Emily @Ded As Michael says, given a correspondence (=relation) $R\colon X⇸Y$ you can put the upper or lower Vietoris topology in $\mathcal{P}(Y)$ and then define continuitiy/openness/closedness of $R$ via its adjunct $R^\dagger\colon X\to\mathcal{P}(Y)$. A reference for openness/closedness in this context is Clementino–Tholen, p. 9, while one for upper/lower semicontinuity for total relations is Klein–Thompson's Theory of Correspondences, Theorems 7.1.4 and 7.1.7.

Feb 24, 2023 at 18:37 comment added Michael Greinecker Upper and lower hemicontinuity make sense without a topology on sets. That being said, the Vietoris topology does the job.
Feb 24, 2023 at 18:26 comment added Ded I do not have enough intuition to think of correspondences as mappings from sets to collections of sets so I am not sure what an appropriate topology would be.
Feb 24, 2023 at 18:23 comment added Iosif Pinelis The discrete topology (which is of course not Euclidean in any sense) would be quite bad, as almost no map from a set with the Euclidean topology to a set with the discrete topology can be continuous.
Feb 24, 2023 at 18:16 comment added Ded That should be the discrete topology which is given as the collection of all subsets of $\mathcal{X}$.
Feb 24, 2023 at 18:02 comment added Iosif Pinelis What is that "Euclidean" topology on the set of all subsets of $\mathcal X$? Can you describe it formally?
Feb 24, 2023 at 18:00 comment added Ded Euclidean as well!
Feb 24, 2023 at 17:58 comment added Iosif Pinelis What topology do you have on the set of all subsets of $\mathcal X$?
Feb 24, 2023 at 17:50 comment added Ded w.r.t. euclidean topology.
Feb 24, 2023 at 17:46 comment added Iosif Pinelis "$C$ is continuous" ... With respect to what topology?
Feb 24, 2023 at 17:43 comment added Ded Oops, should be fixed now!

Feb 24, 2023 at 17:42 comment added Iosif Pinelis What is $\theta$? If $\theta\in\Theta$, then what does $f_1(\theta,x)$ mean, given that $f$ is defined on $\Theta$?
Feb 24, 2023 at 17:31 comment added Ded made a notation change, hope it is clearer now!

Fixed notation
Feb 24, 2023 at 17:25 comment added Ben McKay What does $f(\theta,x)\ge 0$ mean for $f(\theta,x)\in\mathbb{R}^d$?
