Abstract
We develop a theory of sublinear operators with compact values. Then, based on this theory, we construct a theory of first-order compact subdifferentials for maps in Banach spaces. The results are applicable to the calculation of compact subdifferentials of variational functionals with nonsmooth Lagrangians.
