A dynamic boundary-value problem without initial conditions for almost linear parabolic equations

We study a dynamic boundary-value problem without initial conditions for linear and almost linear parabolic equations. First, we establish conditions for the existence of a unique solution of a problem without initial conditions for a certain abstract implicit evolution equation in the class of functions with exponential behavior as t → −∞. Then, using these results, we prove the existence of a unique solution of the original problem in the class of functions with exponential behavior at infinity.     

Stochastic differential operator equations with random initial conditions

The iterative solution of the stochastic differential operator equation is considered for the case of accompanying random, rather than zero, initial conditions. The mean solution and the correlation are determined.     

Problem without initial conditions for some classes of nonlinear parabolic equations

Questions of uniqueness and existence of solutions of the problem without initial conditions for quasilinear parabolic equations of arbitrary order with monotone spatial part, equations of nonstationary filtration type, and operator differential equations of parabolic type are studied. The cases when restrictions are and are not imposed on the behavior of solutions as t– are considered here.Translated from Trudy Seminara imeni I. G. Petrovskogo, No. 14, pp. 3–44, 1989.     

Second order linear differential equations with almost periodic solutions

In this paper, a characterization of almost periodic strongly continuous Sine operator function is given, and in a Hilbert space, it is shown that the almost periodicity of a Sine operator function implies that of the corresponding Cosine operator function.     

An operator theory of linear functional differential equations

An operator theory, based on convolution rings and modules, is developed for various classes of first-order vector functional differential equations of the retarded type with finite and infinite delays. The existence and construction of complete solutions is approached in a novel manner by incorporating initial data into the operator framework. Results are then obtained on exponential and asymptotic stability. The operator framework is also applied to the study of state feedback. Constructive results on spectrum assignability and stabilizability by feedback are given.     

On linear, degenerate backward stochastic partial differential equations

In this paper we study the well-posedness and regularity of the adapted solutions to a class of linear, degenerate backward stochastic partial differential equations (BSPDE, for short). We establish new a priori estimates for the adapted solutions to BSPDEs in a general setting, based on which the existence, uniqueness, and regularity of adapted solutions are obtained. Also, we prove some comparison theorems and discuss their possible applications in mathematical finance. Received: 24 September 1997 / Revised version: 3 June 1998     

The unique solvability of a problem without initial conditions for linear and nonlinear elliptic-parabolic equations

The existence and the uniqueness of generalized solutions of a problem without initial conditions are established for linear and nonlinear anisotropic elliptic-parabolic second-order equations in domains unbounded in spatial variables. We put the restrictions on the behavior of solutions of the problem and the growth of its initial data at infinity. The equations have the nonlinearity exponents depending on points of the domain of definition and the direction of differentiation. Their weak solutions are taken from generalized Lebesgue–Sobolev spaces.     

Decay characteristics for differential equations without linear terms

The asymptotic stability of isolated critical points of differential systems without linear terms is related to the signum of the type numbers introduced by Coleman. This leads to asymptotic estimates for solutions of a class of differential equations with homogeneous first approximation.     

Stability conditions for linear retarded functional differential equations

The purpose of this note is to study the exponential stability for the linear retarded functional differential equation $\text{x}\text{?}\text{(t) = ∫}{}_{\mathrm{?1}}{}^0\text{[dη(θ)] x(t ? r(θ))}$, where the delay function r(θ) ? 0 is continuous and η(θ) is of bounded variation on the interval [?1, 0]. It is shown that the spectral limit function for the equation above has a continuous dependence on the pair (η, r). The set of all functions of bounded variation η for which the equation above is exponentially stable for every delay function r, the so-called region of stability globally in the delays, is a cone. Therefore for a fixed r, the set of all η which make our equation exponentially stable, that is, the region of stability for the delay function r, contains a cone. A discussion of the characterization of these regions of stability, as well as of the largest cone contained in each region of stability for a fixed delay function r, is given. Some remarks are made with respect to a similar question for the equation $\text{x}\text{?}\text{(t) = Ax(t) + ∫}{}_{\mathrm{?\; 1}}{}^0\text{[dμ(θ)] x(t?r(θ))}$, where A is a real n by n matrix, μ(θ) is bounded variation on [?1, 0] and r(θ) as before. Several examples illustrate the results obtained.

Index theory for linear selfadjoint operator equations and nontrivial solutions for asymptotically linear operator equations

We develop index theories for linear selfadjoint operator equations and investigate multiple solutions for asymptotically linear operator equations. The operator equations consist of two kinds: the first has finite Morse index and can be used to investigate second order Hamiltonian systems and elliptic partial differential equations; the second may have infinite Morse index and can be used to investigate first order Hamiltonian systems.     

On periodic solutions of linear degenerate second-order ordinary differential equations

We consider a scalar linear second-order ordinary differential equation whose coefficient of the second derivative may change its sign when vanishing. For this equation, we obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of a periodic solution in the case of arbitrary periodic inhomogeneity.     

Asymptotically almost automorphic solutions for some integrodifferential equations with nonlocal initial conditions

Of concern is a class of abstract semilinear integrodifferential equations with nonlocal initial conditions. Under some suitable hypotheses, we establish some new theorems about the existence of asymptotically almost automorphic solutions to the integrodifferential equations. Moreover, an example is given to illustrate our results.
