# Structure of the pullback attractor for a non-autonomous scalar differential inclusion

• The structure of attractors for differential equations is one of the main topics in the qualitative theory of dynamical systems. However, the theory is still in its infancy in the case of multivalued dynamical systems. In this paper we study in detail the structure and internal dynamics of a scalar differential equation, both in the autonomous and non-autonomous cases. To this aim, we will also show a general result on the characterization of a pullback attractor for a multivalued process by the union of all the complete bounded trajectories of the system.
