Correction: Pavlačková, M.; Taddei, V. Mild Solutions of Second-Order Semilinear Impulsive Differential Inclusions in Banach Spaces. Mathematics 2022, 10, 672

The authors would like to correct parts of Step (b) and Step (d) in Theorem 1 in [1] since both Steps contain a mistake. In particular:

Step (b) Proving that Σ_m has a closed graph.

On page 11, the part of Step (b) from line 18 has to be corrected as follows:

Let us now prove that $f\in S_{G_m,q}^1.$ Due to Mazur’s convexity theorem, for each k ∈ N, there exists $p_k$ ∈ N and positive numbers ${\beta }_{k,i}, i=0, \dots , p_k$, such that ${\sum }_{i=0}^{p_k}{\beta }_{k,i}=1$ and $r_k:={\sum }_{i=0}^{p_k}{\beta }_{k,i} f_{k+i}\to f$ in $L^1(\left[a,b\right],E)$. From the sequence ${\left\{r_k\right\}}_k$, we extract a subsequence, denoted as the sequence as usual, such that $r_k\left(t\right)\to f\left(t\right)$, for all $t\in [a,b]\backslash N_1$ with $\mathsf{\lambda }\left(N_1\right)=0.$ Moreover, for all $t\in [a,b]\backslash N_2$ with $\mathsf{\lambda }\left(N_2\right)=0$, $G_m(t, ·, ·)$ is weakly u.s.c.

Put $N=N_1{\cup N}_2$ and consider ${\mathrm{t}}_0\in [a,b]\backslash N.$ Then, for every weak neighborhood V of $G_m(t_0, q(t_0), \dot{q}(t_0\left)\right)$, there exists a weak neighborhood W of $\left(q\right(t_0), \dot{q}(t_0\left)\right)$ such that $G_m(t, x,y)\subset V$ when $(x,y)\in W.$ Since the uniform convergence implies the weak pointwise convergence, it follows that $q_k\left(t_0\right)$ $\rightharpoonup$ $q\left(t_0\right)$ and ${\dot{q}}_k\left(t_0\right)$ $\rightharpoonup$ $\dot{q}\left(t_0\right)$. Thus, there exists $\overline{k}$ such that, for all $k\ge \overline{k}$, ${(q}_k\left(t_0\right), {\dot{q}}_k\left(t_0\right))\in W,$ yielding that $f_k\left(t_0\right) \in G_m(t_0, q_k(t_0),{\dot{q}}_k(t_0\left)\right) \subset V,$ i.e., that $r_k\left(t_0\right)\in V,$ because $G_m$ is convex valued. Since $r_k\left(t_0\right)\to f\left(t_0\right),$ it follows that $f\left(t_0\right)\in \overline{V},$ for every weak neighborhood V of $G_m(t_0, q(t_0), \dot{q}(t_0\left)\right).$ Since $G_m$ is closed valued, the proof is complete.

Given $\Phi \in E^{*}$ and t ∈ [$a, b$], consider the operator Φ: $L^1\left(\left[a,t\right],E\right)\to \mathrm{R}$ defined by

Since $S\left(t-s\right)$ is bounded and linear, for every $t, s$, Φ is clearly linear and bounded. Moreover, $f_k\rightharpoonup f$ also in $L^1\left(\left[a,t\right],E\right),$ and hence, we have that

By the arbitrariness of $\Phi ,$ we conclude that Hence, since $P_m$ is a linear and bounded operator taking values in the finite-dimensional space $E_m,$ it holds that The conclusion, then, can be completed like in last two lines of Part (b) [1].

Step (d) showing that Σ_m maps bounded sets into relatively compact sets.

The part of Step (d) starting twelve lines below formula (25) has to be corrected as follows:

According to Lemma 3, $\left(t,x\right)\to C\left(t\right)x$ is continuous in [$a, b$] × E and, hence, uniformly continuous in the pre-compact set [$a, b$] × $I_1$.

According to Lemma 2 (h), since S(s) is also linear and bounded, for every $s$ ∈ [$a, b$], we obtain by the same reasoning that is relatively compact, hence is relatively compact in X.

According to (11), $\left(t,x\right)\to C’\left(t\right)x$ is continuous in [$a, b$] × X and, hence, uniformly continuous in the pre-compact set [$a, b$] × $I_2$.

The conclusion, then, can be completed like in last five lines of Part (d) [1].

With these corrections, the order of some equations have been adjusted accordingly.
