Singularly perturbed Volterra integral equations with weakly singular kernels.
An existence and regularity theorem is proved for integral equations of convolution type which contain hysteresis nonlinearities. On the basis of this result, frequency-domain stability criteria are derived for feedback systems with a linear infinite-dimensional system in the forward path and a hysteresis nonlinearity in the feedback path. These stability criteria are reminiscent of the classical circle criterion which applies to static sector-bounded nonlinearities. The class of hysteresis operators...
