Here we present their extension to a nonempty set with a possibly nonsymmetric distance. A distribution-like approach leads to so-called right-hand forward solutions. This concept is applied to a type of geometric evolution having motivated the definitions : compact subsets of the Euclidean space evolve according to nonlocal properties of both the set and their limiting normal cones at the boundary. The existence of a solution is based on Euler method using reachable sets of differential inclusions as "elementary deformations" (called forward transitions). Thus, the regularity of these reachable sets at the topological boundaries is studied extensively in the appendix. abstract_translated_lang: eng class_scheme: msc class_labels: 47D06, 34G25, 34A60, 49J53, 34G20 date: 2007 date_type: published id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00007392 ppn_swb: 1646175808 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-opus-73928 language: eng bibsort: LORENZTHOMEVOLUTIONE2007 full_text_status: public citation: Lorenz, Thomas (2007) Evolution equations in ostensible metric spaces: First-order evolutions of nonsmooth sets with nonlocal terms.
