Asymptotic behavior for differential equations which cannot be locally linearized

For functions ? which are continuous and locally Lipschitz the authors define a multi-valued differential D_f and prove that if all solutions of the multi-valued differential equation u′ ? D_f(u) approach zero as t → ∞, then all solutions x(·) of x′ = ?(x) with small |x(0)| approach zero exponentially as t → ∞. If ? is continuously differentiable, then D_f coincides with the (single-valued) Frechet differential of ?. Other results on the asymptotic behavior of solutions of perturbed, multi-valued differential equations are presented.
