Abstract In this paper we study multi-valued parabolic variational inequalities involving quasilinear parabolic operators, and multi-valued integral terms over the underlying parabolic cylinder as well as over parts of the lateral parabolic boundary, where the multi-valued functions involved are assumed to be upper semicontinuous only. Note, since lower semicontinuous multi-valued functions allow always for a Carathéodory selection, this case can be considered as the trivial case, and therefore will be omitted. Our main goal is threefold: First, we provide an analytical frame work and an existence theory for the problems under consideration. Unlike in recent publications on multi-valued parabolic variational inequalities, the closed convex set K representing the constraints is not required to possess a nonempty interior. Second, we prove enclosure and comparison results based on a recently developed sub-supersolution method due to the authors. Third, we consider classes of relevant generalized parabolic variational-hemivariational inequalities that will be shown to be special cases of the multi-valued parabolic variational inequalities under consideration.
