For researchers in numerical analysis of differential inclusions, this provides a stronger convergence guarantee and better error bounds.

The paper strengthens the convergence result for the Forward Euler method applied to Lipschitz differential inclusions from reachable sets to solution paths, and improves the error constant for cases with few smooth functions.

In a previous paper it was shown that the Forward Euler method applied to differential inclusions where the right-hand side is a Lipschitz continuous set-valued function with uniformly bounded, compact values, converges with rate one. The convergence, which was there in the sense of reachable sets, is in this paper strengthened to the sense of convergence of solution paths. An improvement of the error constant is given for the case when the set-valued function consists of a small number of smooth ordinary functions.
