On the Kneser property for some parabolic problems

In this paper we consider both a phase-field systems of equations and an abstract differential inclusion for which the uniqueness of the Cauchy problem fails. We prove that the Kneser property holds, that is, that the set of values attained by the solutions at every moment of time is compact and connected. These results are also applied for proving that the global attractors in both cases are connected. An application is given to a reaction-diffusion equation with discontinuous nonlinearity.
