Decay rates of Volterra equations on ℝN
This note is concerned with the linear Volterra equation of hyperbolic type on the whole space ℝN. New results concerning the decay of the associated energy as time goes to infinity were established.

Mathematics Subject Classification: 45G10, 45M99, 47H09We study the solvability of a perturbed quadratic integral equation of fractional order with linear modification of the argument. This equation is considered in the Banach space of real functions which are defined, bounded and continuous on an unbounded interval. Moreover, we will obtain some asymptotic characterization of solutions. Finally, we give an example to illustrate our abstract results.
In this paper, we formulate necessary conditions for decay rates of Lp operator norms of weighted oscillatory integral operators R and give sharp L2 estimates and nearly sharp Lp estimates.
We present two sufficient conditions for nonconvolution kernels to be of positive type. We apply the results to obtain stability for one-dimensional models of chemically reacting viscoelastic materials.
In this paper, the initial-value problem, the problem of asymptotic time behaviour of its solution and the problem of criticality are studied in the case of linear Boltzmann equation for both finite and infinite media. Space of functions where these problems are solved is chosen in such a vay that the range of physical situations considered may be so wide as possible. As mathematical apparatus the theory of positive bounded operators and of semigroups are applied. Main results are summarized in...
Resistance to chemotherapies, particularly to anticancer treatments, is an increasing medical concern. Among the many mechanisms at work in cancers, one of the most important is the selection of tumor cells expressing resistance genes or phenotypes. Motivated by the theory of mutation-selection in adaptive evolution, we propose a model based on a continuous variable that represents the expression level of a resistance gene (or genes, yielding a phenotype) influencing in healthy and tumor cells birth/death...
