In this paper we prove a regularity result for very weak solutions of equations of the type $-divA(x,u,Du)=B(x,u,Du)$, where $A$, $B$ grow in the gradient like $t^{p-1}$ and $B(x,u,Du)$ is not in divergence form. Namely we prove that a very weak solution $u\in W^{1,r}$ of our equation belongs to $W^{1,p}$. We also prove global higher integrability for a very weak solution for the Dirichlet problem $$\left\{\begin{array}{cc}-divA(x,u,Du)=B(x,u,Du)\hfill & \text{in}\Omega ,u-u_o\in W^{1,r}(\Omega ,{ℝ}^m).\hfill \end{array}\right.$$

In this paper we deal with the Cauchy problem for differential inclusions governed by $m$-accretive operators in general Banach spaces. We are interested in finding the sufficient conditions for the existence of integral solutions of the problem $x^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)\in -Ax\left(t\right)+f(t,x\left(t\right))$, $x\left(0\right)=x_0$, where $A$ is an $m$-accretive operator, and $f$ is a continuous, but non-compact perturbation, satisfying some additional conditions.

Let $D$ be a nonempty compact subset of a Banach space $X$ and denote by $S\left(X\right)$ the family of all nonempty bounded closed convex subsets of $X$. We endow $S\left(X\right)$ with the Hausdorff metric and show that there exists a set $ℱ\subset S\left(X\right)$ such that its complement $S\left(X\right)\setminus ℱ$ is $\sigma$-porous and such that for each $A\in ℱ$ and each $\tilde{x}\in D$, the set of solutions of the best approximation problem $\parallel \tilde{x}-z\parallel \to min$, $z\in A$, is nonempty and compact, and each minimizing sequence has a convergent subsequence.
