It is sometimes desirable to know in what circumstances a measurable set valued function admits a measurable selector; this problem occurs regularly in the theory of optimal control (see for example (3) and (7)). In this paper we demonstrate the existence of measurable selectors in two particular cases where the choice of selector has a simple geometrical interpretation, namely that of being a “ nearest-point ” selector, as is explained in detail below. This work derives in part from that of C. Castaing, particularly from Théorème 3.4 of (2), of which this is an extension.
