Existence and multiplicity of solutions for nonlinear discrete inclusions

A non-smooth abstract result is used for proving the existence of at least one nontrivial solution of an algebraic discrete inclusion. Successively, a multiplicity theorem for the same class of discrete problems is also established by using a locally Lipschitz continuous version of the famous Brezis-Nirenberg theoretical result in presence of splitting. Some applications to tridiagonal, fourth-order and partial difference inclusions are pointed out.
