Abstract. In this paper, we consider a k-th order differential inclusion with a multifunction F such that its restriction to the complement of a suitable null-measure set is lower semicontinuous and bounded. We prove that there exists an upper semicontinuous multifunction G such that each generalized solution of the corresponding k-th order differential inclusion is also a generalized solution of the original differential inclusion. As an application, we prove an existence and qualitative result for the Cauchy problem associated to a class of k-th order differential inclusions. In particular, we give sufficient conditions under which the solution multifuncion admits an upper semicontinuous multivalued selection with nonempty compact connected values. Finally, as a further application, we prove an analogous existence and qualitative result for the generalized solutions of the Cauchy problem associated to a class of k-th order implicit discontinuous differential equations.
