In this paper, we introduce the concept of lower semi-continuous from above functions and show that many well-known results, such as Ekland's and Caristi's theorems, remain also true under lower semi-continuous from above functions.

In this paper we prove Ekeland's variational principle in the setting of locally complete spaces for lower semi continuous functions from above and bounded below. We use this theorem to prove Caristi's fixed point theorem in the same setting and also for lower semi continuous functions.
