A positive eigenvalue result for semilinear differential equations in Banach spaces with functional initial conditions

We study the existence of positive eigenvalues with associated nonnegative mild eigenfunctions for a class of abstract initial value problems in Banach spaces with functional, possibly nonlocal, initial conditions. The framework includes periodic, multipoint, and integral average conditions. Our approach relies on nonlinear analysis, topological methods, and the theory of strongly continuous semigroups, yielding results applicable to a wide range of models. As an illustration, we apply the abstract theory to a reaction-diffusion equation with a nonlocal initial condition arising from a heat flow problem.

Impulsive delay differential inclusions applied to optimization problems

We study a class of semilinear impulsive differential inclusions with infinite delay in Banach spaces. The model incorporates multivalued nonlinearities, impulsive effects, and infinite memory, allowing for the description of systems influenced by long-lasting past states and sudden changes. We prove the existence of mild solutions and the compactness of the solution set using fixed point methods and measures of noncompactness. The theoretical results are applied to an abstract optimization problem and to a population dynamics model.

The Sturm-Liouville Hierarchy of evolution equations and the Weyl functions of related spectral problems

The goal of the present paper is that of defining the so-called Sturm-Liouville hierarchy of evolution equations, firstly by using the zero-curvature formalism, then by using the asymptotic properties of the Weyl $m$-functions for certain classes of pairs $(q,y)$ of the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue equation $$-φ''+qφ=λyφ,$$ in the space $L^2(\mathbb R,ydx)$. Since the Weyl $m$-functions are known to contain all the information concerning the spectral properties of the above equation, the determination of the evolution of some spectral characteristics will allow to determine solutions of the hierarchies of evolution equations.

Uniform asymptotic stability of a PDE's system arising from a flexible robotics model

In this paper we investigate the asymptotic stability of a fourth-order PDE with a fading memory forcing term and boundary conditions arising from a flexible robotics model. We carry on our study by using an abstract formulation of the problem based on the $C_0$-semigroup. To achieve our objective, we first provide new results on the existence, uniqueness, continuous dependence on initial data of either mild and strong solutions for semilinear integro-differential equations in Banach spaces. Then, we also find sufficient conditions for the uniform asymptotic stability of solutions and for the existence of attactors. As an application of these abstract results, we can ensure existence, uniqueness and continuous dependence on initial data for the solutions of the boundary value problem under investigation and, finally, we prove the uniform asymptotic stability of solutions and the existence of attactors under suitable conditions on the nonlinear term.

A unified existence theory for evolution equations and systems under nonlocal conditions

We investigate the effect of nonlocal conditions expressed by linear continuous mappings over the hypotheses which guarantee the existence of global mild solutions for functional-differential equations in a Banach space. A progressive transition from the Volterra integral operator associated to the Cauchy problem, to Fredholm type operators appears when the support of the nonlocal condition increases from zero to the entire interval of the problem. The results are extended to systems of equations in a such way that the system nonlinearities behave independently as much as possible and the support of the nonlocal condition may differ from one variable to another.
