We deal with several classes of integral transformations of the form $$f\left(x\right)\to D{\int }_{{ℝ}_{+}^2}\frac{1}{u}({\mathrm{e}}^{-ucosh(x+v)}+{\mathrm{e}}^{-ucosh(x-v)})h\left(u\right)f\left(v\right)\mathrm{d}u\mathrm{d}v,$$ where $D$ is an operator. In case $D$ is the identity operator, we obtain several operator properties on $L_p\left({ℝ}_{+}\right)$ with weights for a generalized operator related to the Fourier cosine and the Kontorovich-Lebedev integral transforms. For a class of differential operators of infinite order, we prove the unitary property of these transforms on $L_2\left({ℝ}_{+}\right)$ and define the inversion formula. Further, for an other class of differential operators of finite...

In this paper we study existence and uniqueness of solutions for the Hammerstein equation $$u\left(x\right)=v\left(x\right)+\lambda {\int }_{I_a^b}K(x,y)f(y,u\left(y\right))dy,x\in I_a^b:=[a_1,b_1]\times [a_2,b_2],$$ in the space $B{V}_{\varphi }^{ℝ}\left(I_a^b\right)$ of function of bounded total $\varphi -$variation in the sense of Riesz, where $\lambda \in ℝ$, $K:I_a^b\times I_a^b\to ℝ$ and $f:I_a^b\times ℝ\to ℝ$ are suitable functions.

The Povzner equation is a version of the nonlinear Boltzmann equation, in which the collision operator is mollified in the space variable. The existence of stationary solutions in $L^1$ is established for a class of stationary boundary-value problems in bounded domains with smooth boundaries, without convexity assumptions. The results are obtained for a general type of collision kernels with angular cutoff. Boundary conditions of the diffuse reflection type, as well as the given incoming profile, are...

We discuss the influence of the transformation {X(t)} → {f(t) X(τ(t))} on the Karhunen-Loève expansion of {X(t)}. Our main result is that, in general, the Karhunen-Loève expansion of {X(t)} with respect to Lebesgue's measure is transformed in the Karhunen-Loève expansion of {f(t) X(τ(t))} with respect to the measure f-2(t)dτ(t). Applications of this result are given in the case of Wiener process, Brownian bridge, and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process.

In the present work, using a formula describing all scalar spectral functions of a Carleman operator $A$ of defect indices $(1,1)$ in the Hilbert space $L^2(X,\mu )$ that we obtained in a previous paper, we derive certain results concerning the localization of the spectrum of quasi-selfadjoint extensions of the operator $A$.
