Zusammenfassung:The paper is devoted to studying generalized differential properties of distance functions that play a remarkable role in variational analysis, optimization, and their applications. The main object under consideration is the distance function of two variables in Banach spaces that signifies the distance from a point to a moving set. We derive various relationships between Frechet-type subgradients and limiting (basic and singular) subgradients of this distance function and corresponding generalized normals to sets and coderivatives of set-valued mappings. These relationships are essentially different depending on whether or not the reference point belongs to the graph of the involved set-valued mapping. Our major results are new even for subdifferentiation of the standard distance function signifying the distance between a point and a fixed set in finite-dimensional spaces. The subdifferential results obtained are applied to deriving efficient dual-space conditions for the local Lipschitz continuity of distance functions generated by set-valued mappings, in particular, by those arising in parametric constrained optimization.
