Almost automorphic solutions for abstract functional differential equations

For abstract linear functional differential equations with an almost automorphic forcing term, we establish a result on the existence of almost automorphic solutions, which extends the classical theorem due to Massera on the existence of periodic solutions for linear periodic ordinary differential equations.     

The existence of mild solutions for impulsive fractional partial differential equations

This paper is concerned with the existence of mild solutions for a class of impulsive fractional partial semilinear differential equations. Some errors in Mophou (2010) [2] are corrected, and some previous results are generalized.     

Variational solutions for partial differential equations driven by a fractional noise

In this article we develop an existence and uniqueness theory of variational solutions for a class of nonautonomous stochastic partial differential equations of parabolic type defined on a bounded open subset D⊂R^d and driven by an infinite-dimensional multiplicative fractional noise. We introduce two notions of such solutions for them and prove their existence and their indistinguishability by assuming that the noise is derived from an L²(D)-valued fractional Wiener process W^H with Hurst parameter , whose covariance operator satisfies appropriate integrability conditions, and where γ∈(0,1] denotes the Hölder exponent of the derivative of the nonlinearity in the stochastic term of the equations. We also prove the uniqueness of solutions when the stochastic term is an affine function of the unknown random field. Our existence and uniqueness proofs rest upon the construction and the convergence of a suitable sequence of Faedo-Galerkin approximations, while our proof of indistinguishability is based on certain density arguments as well as on new continuity properties of the stochastic integral we define with respect to W^H.     

Correctness of Cauchy-type problems for abstract differential equations with fractional derivatives

Weak solutions for stochastic differential equations with additive fractional noise

New exact solutions of differential equations derived by fractional calculus

Fractional calculus generalizes the derivative and antiderivative operations dⁿ/dzⁿ of differential and integral calculus from integer orders n to the entire complex plane. Methods are presented for using this generalized calculus with Laplace transforms of complex-order derivatives to solve analytically many differential equations in physics, facilitate numerical computations, and generate new infinite-series representations of functions. As examples, new exact analytic solutions of differential equations, including new generalized Bessel equations with complex-power-law variable coefficients, are derived.     

Extremal solutions of Cauchy problems for abstract fractional differential equations

In this paper, we study the extremal solutions of Cauchy problems for abstract fractional differential equations. Some definitions such as L ¹-Lipschitz-like, L ¹-Carathéodory-like and L ¹-Chandrabhan-like are introduced. By virtue of the singular integral inequalities with several nonlinearities due to Medved’, the properties of solutions are given. By using a hybrid fixed point theorem due to Dhage, existence results for extremal solutions are established. Finally, we present an example to illustrate our main results.

Approximate solutions of abstract differential equations

The methods of arbitrarily high orders of accuracy for the solution of an abstract ordinary differential equation are studied. The right-hand side of the differential equation under investigation contains an unbounded operator which is an infinitesimal generator of a strongly continuous semigroup of operators. Necessary and sufficient conditions are found for a rational function to approximate the given semigroup with high accuracy. The research was supported by the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Institutional Research Plan No. AV0Z10190503.
