Second order linear Volterra integrodifferential equations.
By using the theory of strongly continuous cosine families of linear operators in Banach space the existence of solutions of some semilinear second order Volterra integrodifferential equations in Banach spaces is proved. The results are applied to some integro-partial differential equations.
Motivated by structured parasite populations in aquaculture we consider a class of size-structured population models, where individuals may be recruited into the population with distributed states at birth. The mathematical model which describes the evolution of such a population is a first-order nonlinear partial integro-differential equation of hyperbolic type. First, we use positive perturbation arguments and utilise results from the spectral...
Using a method developed by the author for an analysis of singular integral inequalities a stability theorem for semilinear parabolic PDEs is proved.
