Abstract

In this paper, we first establish an exact modulus of metrical regularity for set-valued mappings from a complete metric space to a coherent metric space in terms of slopes of the lower semicontinuous envelope of distance functions to the images of set-valued mappings under consideration. Secondly, under suitable assumptions on range spaces and/or on set-valued mappings under consideration, we give an exact estimate for the radius of metric regularity.
