Abstract
This paper proves a Filippov type existence theorem for solutions of a boundary value problem for a Sturm-Liouville type differential inclusion defined by a nonconvex set-valued map. The method consists in application of the contraction principle in the space of selections of the set-valued map instead of the space of solutions.
