Abstract. We shall present current results concerning Browder--Gupta-type theorems, Banach principle for multivalued mappings and the inverse limit method  including its applications to ordinary differential equations and differential inclusions. Consequently, Aronszajn's-type topological characterization of the set of solutions for differential equations and inclusions is considered. Note that some new results of the above mentioned type will be discussed.
