    Abstract:
    This book has been long in the making, but now having the result under our eyes, we believe that it was worth the wait.The idea of compiling a volume collecting the experiences of the various constructicon initiatives going on around the world was born in the context of an international collaboration between the universities at Gothenburg in Sweden and Juiz de Fora in Brazil, and the excellent opportunities to interact and learn from each other's experiences afforded by both research visits and the international FrameNet workshops organized jointly by the Swedish and Brazilian teams, together with the FrameNet group in Berkeley, California: IFNW 2013 in Berkeley, IFNW 2016, collocated with ICCG9 in Juiz de Fora, and the upcoming IFNW 2018 with the special theme Multilingual FrameNets and Constructicons, collocated with LREC in Miyazaki, Japan.Moreover, profitable discussions relevant to the works presented in this book took place in the special sessions Cognitively grounded lexica, constructicons, and metaphor repositories, at ICLC12 in Edmonton, Canada, in 2013, and Constructionist resources -a workshop in honor of Charles J. Fillmore, at ICCG8 in Osnabrück, Germany, in 2014.During these events, most -if not all -authors of the chapters in this volume had the chance to share their points of view, positions and questions on the development of constructionist resources.Beyond the group of authors whose contributions make this book, we'd like to thank our -and their -interlocutors.
    Our main purpose is to introduce the notion of almost α(Λ, sp)-continuous multifunctions. Moreover, some characterizations of almost α(Λ, sp)-continuous multifunctions are established.
    In this paper we consider a generalization to analytic multifunctions of the classical Hardy space theory of analytic functions on the unit disc. With \K(lambda) = sup (\z\; z is an element of K(lambda)) we define the Nevanlinna class N and the classes H
