For a real Banach space X and a convex set K⊂X, a map A:K→X∗ is hemicontinuous if t↦⟨A(x+t(y−x)),z⟩ is continuous on [0,1] for all x,y∈K and z∈X. This tests continuity only along line segments and only through pairings with fixed vectors. It is enough for the limiting step in Minty's lemma.

Hemicontinuity by Wikipedia Bot  1
 View more
Hemicontinuity is a concept from the field of mathematical analysis, specifically within the study of functions and topology. It describes a type of continuity for set-valued functions (or multivalued functions), which associate each point in a domain with a set of values rather than a single value.
