We present a generalization of topological transition matrices introduced in [6].

We consider autonomous systems where two scalar differential equations are coupled with the input-output relationship of the Preisach hysteresis operator, which has an infinite-dimensional memory. A prototype system of this type is an LCR electric circuit where the inductive element has a ferromagnetic core with a hysteretic relationship between the magnetic field and the magnetization. Further examples of such systems include lumped hydrological models with two soil layers; they can also appear...
Sufficient conditions for the existence of bounded solutions of singularly perturbed impulsive differential equations are obtained. For this purpose integral manifolds are used.
Some properties of differential inclusions with lower semicontinuous right-hand side are considered. Our essential assumption is the one-sided Lipschitz condition introduced in [4]. Using the main idea of [10], we extend the well known relaxation theorem, stating that the solution set of the original problem is dense in the solution set of the relaxed one, under assumptions essentially weaker than those in the literature. Applications in optimal control are given.
We consider a class of differential inclusions in (nonseparable) Banach spaces satisfying mixed type semicontinuity hypotheses and prove the existence of solutions for a problem with state constraints. The cases of dissipative type conditions and with time lag are also studied. These results are then applied to control systems.
Kolmogorov -widths are an approximation theory concept that, for a given problem, yields information about the optimal rate of convergence attainable by any numerical method applied to that problem. We survey sharp bounds recently obtained for the -widths of certain singularly perturbed convection-diffusion and reaction-diffusion boundary value problems.
