The definition of the weak slope of continuous functions introduced by Degiovanni and Marzocchi (cf. [8]) and its interrelation with the notion “steepness” of locally Lipschitz functions are discussed. A deformation lemma and a mountain pass theorem for usco mappings are proved. The relation between these results and the respective ones for lower semicontinuous functions (cf. [7]) is considered...
