Set-valued function
, because the element 3 in X is associated with two elements, b and c, in Y. A set-valued function, also called a correspondence or set-valued relation, is a mathematical function that maps elements from one set, the domain of the function, to subsets of another set. Set-valued functions are used in a variety of mathematical fields, including optimization, control theory and game theory. Set-valued functions are also known as multivalued functions in some references, but this article and the article Multivalued function follow the authors who make a distinction.
