We investigate the existence of pseudo almost periodic solutions for a class of integrodifferential equation with nonlocal initial conditions arising in the study of heat conduction in materials with memory. We first establish some existence theorems for abstract semilinear integro-differential equations with nonlocal initial conditions, and then, we apply our abstract results to the addressed integro-differential equation arising in the study of heat conduction in materials with memory. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

in the Banach space X . Recall that the integro-differential equation (1.3) with a nonlocal initial condition (1.4) has been a topic of interest for many researchers. There is a lot of literature on the existence of solutions for various forms of Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4) on a finite interval (see, e.g, [5,6,4,7–12] and references therein). On the other hand, very recently, the existence of almost periodic type solutions and almost automorphic type solutions for Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4) and its variants has attracted more and more attention. We refer the reader to [13–17] for some recent development on this topic. In this paper, we will make further study on this topic, i.e., we will establish some existence theorems on pseudo almost periodic solutions for Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4), and then, apply our abstract results to Eqs. (1.1)–(1.2). 2. Pseudo almost periodic functions on R+ Throughout this paper, R denotes the set of real numbers; R+ denotes the set of nonnegative real numbers; X , Y denote two Banach spaces; Ω denotes a subset of X ; BC (R+ , X ) denotes the Banach space of bounded continuous functions from R+ to X with supremum norm; for p ≥ 1, C p (R+ × Ω , Y ) denotes the set of all BS p -uniformly continuous functions f : R+ × Ω → Y , i.e., there is a nonnegative function L ∈ BS p (R) satisfying that ∀ε > 0, there exists δ > 0 such that

∥f (t , u) − f (t , v)∥ ≤ L(t )ε for all t ∈ R+ and u, v ∈ Ω with ∥u − v∥ < δ . Next, let us recall and introduce some definitions and notations about almost periodicity and pseudo almost periodicity. For more details, we refer the reader to [18,19]. Definition 2.1. A continuous function f : R → X is called almost periodic if for each ε > 0 there exists l(ε) > 0 such that every interval I of length l(ε) contains a number τ with the property that sup ∥f (t + τ ) − f (t )∥ < ε. t ∈R

We denote by AP (X ) the set of all such functions. Definition 2.2. A continuous function f : R × Ω → Y is called almost periodic in t uniformly for x ∈ Ω if for each ε > 0 and for each compact subset K ⊂ Ω there exists l(ε) > 0 such that every interval I of length l(ε) contains a number τ with the property that sup sup ∥f (t + τ , x) − f (t , x)∥ < ε. t ∈R x∈K

We denote by AP (R × Ω , Y ) the set of all such functions. In this paper, we denote PAP0 (R , X ) = +

∥h(t )∥dt = 0 . 0

Moreover, we denote by PAP0 (R+ × Ω , Y ) the space of all continuous functions h : R+ × Ω → Y such that for each x ∈ Ω , h(·, x) ∈ PAP0 (R+ , Y ).

Definition 2.3. A function f : R+ → X is called pseudo almost periodic if f (t ) = g (t ) + h(t ),

t ∈ R+ ,

where g ∈ AP (X ) and h ∈ PAP0 (R+ , X ). We denote by PAP (R+ , X ) the set of all such functions. Definition 2.4. A function f : R+ × Ω → Y is called pseudo almost periodic if f (t , x) = g (t , x) + h(t , x),

t ∈ R+ , x ∈ Ω ,

where g ∈ AP (R × Ω , Y ) and h ∈ PAP0 (R+ × Ω , Y ). We denote by PAP (R+ × Ω , Y ) the set of all such functions. Lemma 2.5. Let f = g + h ∈ PAP (R+ , X ) with g ∈ AP (X ) and h ∈ PAP0 (R+ , X ). Then

{g (t ) : t ∈ R} ⊂ {f (t ) : t ∈ R+ }. Proof. The proof is similar to that of pseudo almost periodic functions on R (cf. [19]). So we omit the details.



By Lemma 2.5, it is easy to see that the decomposition of every pseudo almost periodic function is unique; also, it is not difficult to prove the following result. Lemma 2.6. PAP (R+ , X ) is a Banach space under the supremum norm

∥f ∥ = sup ∥f (t )∥. t ∈R+

Next, we have the following lemma. Lemma 2.7. Let f ∈ BC (R+ , X ). Then f ∈ PAP0 (R+ , X ) if and only if ∀ε > 0, lim

mesMT ,ε (f ) T

T →+∞

= 0,

where MT ,ε (f ) = {t ∈ [0, T ] : ∥f (t )∥ ≥ ε}. Proof. The proof is also similar to that of pseudo almost periodic functions on R (cf. [19]). So we omit the details.



We also need to recall some definitions about Stepanov bounded functions (for more details, see [20]). Definition 2.8. The Bochner transform f b (t , s), t ∈ R, s ∈ [0, 1], of a function f (t ) on R, with values in X , is defined by f b (t , s) := f (t + s). Definition 2.9. Let p ∈ [1, ∞). The space BS p (X ) of all Stepanov bounded functions, with the exponent p, consists of all measurable functions f on R with values in X such that f b : R → Lp (0, 1; X ) is bounded. We denote

Now, we are ready to establish the following composition theorem. Theorem 2.10. Let x ∈ PAP (R+ , X ) and Ω = {x(t ) : t ∈ R+ }. Suppose that f ∈ PAP (R+ × Ω , Y ) f (R+ × Ω ) is bounded. Then f (·, x(·)) ∈ PAP (R+ , Y ).



C 1 (R+ × Ω , Y ) and

Proof. Let x = α + β and f = g + h, where α ∈ AP (X ), β ∈ PAP0 (R+ , X ), g ∈ AP (R × Ω , Y ) and h ∈ PAP0 (R+ × Ω , Y ). Denote I (t ) = g (t , α(t )),

J (t ) = f (t , x(t )) − f (t , α(t )),

K (t ) = h(t , α(t )).

Then f (t , x(t )) = I (t ) + J (t ) + K (t ). Since f (R+ × Ω ) is bounded, f (·, x(·)) ∈ BC (R+ , Y ). In addition, we denote M =

sup t ∈R+ ,u∈Ω

∥f (t , u)∥.

By Lemma 2.5, {α(t ) : t ∈ R} ⊂ Ω . Then it is easy to see that I ∈ AP (Y ). Next, let us show that J ∈ PAP0 (R+ , Y ). Since f ∈ C 1 (R+ × Ω , Y ), there is a nonnegative function L ∈ BS 1 (R) satisfying that ∀ε > 0, there exists a constant δ > 0 such that ∥β(t )∥ < δ implies that

∥f (t , x(t )) − f (t , α(t ))∥ ≤ L(t )ε.

It remains to prove that K ∈ PAP0 (R+ , Y ). Let Σ = {α(t ) : t ∈ R}. It is well-known that Σ ⊂ Ω is compact. Since g is uniformly continuous on R × Σ , g ∈ C 1 (R+ × Σ , Y ). Thus, h ∈ C 1 (R+ × Σ , Y ), i.e., there is a function L ∈ BS 1 (R) satisfying that ∀ε > 0, there exists δ > 0 such that

∥h(t , u) − h(t , v)∥ ≤  L(t )ε

(2.1)

for all t ∈ R+ and u, v ∈ Σ with ∥u − v∥ < δ . For any fixed ε > 0, let δ be such that (2.1) holds. Then there exist x1 , . . . , xk ∈ Σ such that

3. Abstract results In this section, we will establish some abstract results for Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4). First, let us recall some notations about resolvent operator. Definition 3.1 ([21]). A family {R(t ) : t ≥ 0} of continuous linear operators on X is called a resolvent operator (to Eq. (1.3)), iff (R1) R(0) = I, the identity map on X , (R2) for all x ∈ X , the map t → R(t )x is a continuous X -valued function on [0, +∞), (R3) for all t ≥ 0, R(t ) is a continuous operator on Y , and for all y ∈ Y , the map t → R(t )y belongs to C ([0, +∞), Y ) ∩ C 1 ([0, +∞), X ) and satisfies d dt

where Y = D(A) = D(B(t )) for all t ≥ 0 and it is equipped with the graph norm. For more details about resolvent operator, we refer the reader to [3,21]. If the resolvent operator R(·) of Eq. (1.3) exists, then we can define the mild solution of Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4) as the following. Definition 3.2. A function u ∈ C ([0, +∞), X ) is called a mild solution of Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4) if u(t ) = R(t )[u0 + g (u)] +

Next, for convenience, we list some assumptions. (H1) A is a densely defined, closed linear operator in X and generates a compact C0 -semigroup T (t ). Hence D(A) endowed with the graph norm |u| = ∥u∥ + ∥Au∥ is a Banach space which will be denoted by (D(A), | · |). (H2) {B(t ) : t ≥ 0} is a family of continuous linear operators from (D(A), | · |) into (X , ∥ · ∥), and for each y ∈ D(A), the map 1,1 t → B(t )y belongs to Wloc (R+ , X ). Moreover, there exists a locally integrable function b : R+ → R+ such that

  d   B(t )y ≤ b(t )|y|, y ∈ D(A), t ∈ R+ .  dt   (H3) f ∈ PAP (R+ × X , X ) C 1 (R+ × X , X ) and f (R+ × B) is bounded for each bounded subset B ⊂ X . (H4) For each bounded sequence {un } ⊂ PAP (R+ , X ), if {un } is uniformly convergent in every compact subsets of R+ , then {f (·, un (·))} is precompact in BC (R+ , X ). (H5) g : PAP (R+ , X ) → X is a continuous and compact mapping. In the proof of our main result, we will need the following theorem. Theorem 3.3 ([21,8]). Assume that (H1) and (H2) hold. Then (a) there exists a resolvent operator R(·) of Eq. (1.3), and R(t ) is compact for each t > 0; (b) for any fixed T > 0, there exists a constant H = H (T ) such that

∥R(t + h) − R(h)R(t )∥ ≤ Hh for all h, t ∈ [0, T ] with h ≤ t; (c) R(·) is operator norm continuous on (0, +∞). Lemma 3.4. Let {R(t ) : t ≥ 0} be a strongly continuous family of bounded and linear operators on X satisfying ∥R(t )∥ ≤ Me−ωt for all t ≥ 0, where M , ω > 0 are fixed constants. Then, for each f ∈ PAP (R+ , X ), fR ∈ PAP (R+ , X ), fR (t ) =

Now, we are ready to establish one of our main results. Theorem 3.5. Assume that (H1)–(H5) hold. Moreover, the resolvent operator of Eq. (1.3) satisfies ∥R(t )∥ ≤ Me−ωt for all t ≥ 0, where M , ω > 0 are some fixed constants. Then there exists a pseudo almost periodic mild solution to Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4) provided that there exists a constant C > 0 such that

It suffices to prove that R has a fixed point in E. First, by Theorem 3.3, we know that R(t ) is compact for each t > 0 and R(·) is operator norm continuous on (0, +∞). Next, we divide the proof into five steps.

2665

Step 1. R (E ) ⊂ E. Fix u ∈ E. Noting that ∥R(t )∥ ≤ Me−ωt for all t ≥ 0, by (3.1), we have ∥R u∥ ≤ C . On the other hand, by (H3) and Theorem 2.10, we get f (·, u(·)) ∈ PAP (R+ , X ), and then Lemma 3.4 yields that t



R(t − s)f (s, u(s))ds

t → 0

belongs to PAP (R+ , X ). In addition, it is easy to see that R(·)[u0 + g (u)] ∈ PAP0 (R+ , X ). So R u ∈ PAP (R+ , X ), and thus R u ∈ E . Step 2. R : E → E is continuous. Let un → u in PAP (R+ , X ). Fix ε > 0. Since f ∈ C 1 (R+ × X , X ), there exists a nonnegative function L ∈ BS 1 (R) and a constant δ > 0 such that

∥f (t , u) − f (t , v)∥ ≤ L(t )ε for all t ∈ R+ and u, v ∈ X with ∥u − v∥ < δ . Then, when n is sufficiently large, ∥un − u∥ < δ , which gives that

∥f (t , un (t )) − f (t , u(t ))∥ ≤ L(t )ε,

∀t ∈ R+ .

On the other hand, by (H4), g : PAP (R+ , X ) → X is continuous, and thus

∥g (un ) − g (u)∥ < ε when n is sufficiently large. Now, for sufficiently large n, we have

∥R un − R u∥ ≤ M ∥g (un ) − g (u)∥ + sup

{R(t )[u0 + g (u)] : u ∈ E } = {u0 } + g (E ) is precompact in X since g is compact. For each t > 0, since R(t ) is compact and {u0 + g (u) : u ∈ E } is bounded, we know that {R(t )[u0 + g (u)] : u ∈ E } is precompact. It remains to show that t

is totally bounded, and thus precompact. Step 4. For each t ∈ R+ , {R u : u ∈ E } is equicontinuous at t. Since {u0 + g (u) : u ∈ E } is precompact, by the strong continuity of R(·),

{R(·)[u0 + g (u)] : u ∈ E } is equicontinuous at t. In addition, for each u ∈ E and 1t ≥ 0, we have

Step 5. R has a fixed point in E. Denote the closed convex hull of R (E ) by F . By Step 1, R (E ) ⊂ E. Since E is closed and convex, we conclude that F ⊂ E. Then, we have R (F ) ⊂ R (E ) ⊂ F .

Moreover, by Step 2, R : F → F is continuous. In addition, this follows from Steps 3 and 4; we know that for each t ∈ R+ , {u(t ) : u ∈ F } is precompact in X , and {u : u ∈ F } is equicontinuous at t. Next, let us show that R (F ) is precompact. Let {uk }∞ k=1 ⊂ F be an arbitrary sequence. Since g is compact, one can assume that g (uk ) → g (u) in X (by taking a subsequence, if necessary). For any fixed n ∈ N, noting that {uk (t ) : k ∈ N} is precompact in X for each t ∈ R+ and {uk }∞ k=1 is uniformly equicontinuous on [0, n], we conclude that {uk : k ∈ N} is precompact in C ([0, n], X ) by the abstract version of Arzela–Ascoli’s theorem. Then, by the diagonal method, one can choose ∞ ∞ a subsequence of {uk }∞ k=1 , which we also denote by {uk }k=1 for convenience, such that {uk }k=1 is uniformly convergent on + + every compact subset of R . Now, (H4) yields that f (·, uk (·)) is precompact in BC (R , X ). Thus, there is a subsequence um such that f (·, um (·)) is uniformly convergent on R+ , which gives that



t

t →

is uniformly convergent on R+ . Recalling that g (uk ) → g (u) in X , we conclude that R (um ) is convergent in PAP (R+ , X ), which means that R (F ) is precompact. Now, by using Schauder’s fixed point theorem, R has a fixed point in F .  Corollary 3.6. Assume that all the assumptions of Theorem 3.5 hold except for (H4) and the compactness of T (·). Moreover, there is a nonnegative function L ∈ BS p (R) with p > 1 such that

∥f (t , u) − f (t , v)∥ ≤ L(t )∥u − v∥,

∀t ∈ R+ , ∀u, v ∈ X .

Then there exists a pseudo almost periodic mild solution to Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4) provided that

Proof. It follows from [21] that there also exists a resolvent operator R(·) of Eq. (1.3), which is now not necessarily compact. Let E be as in the proof of Theorem 3.5. Define two operators on E by

(A u)(t ) = R(t )[u0 + g (u)],

Then, similarly as in the proof of Step 1 of Theorem 3.5, we can get A (E ) + B (E ) ⊂ E. By (H5), it is easy to see that A is continuous and A (E ) is precompact in PAP (R+ , X ). In addition, for u, v ∈ E, we have

Then, by using Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem, we conclude that A + B has a fixed point in E, which is just a pseudo almost periodic mild solution to Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4).  Remark 3.7. In Corollary 3.6, if L ∈ BS 1 (R), then we can obtain the same conclusion provided that

4. Integro-differential equations of heat conduction in materials with memory In this section, by virtue of our abstract results in Section 3, we will study the nonlocal problem of heat conduction in materials with memory, i.e., Eqs. (1.1)–(1.2). Let X , A, B, f , u0 , g be as in Section 1. First, it follows from [22,4] that A generates a C0 -semigroup {T (t )}t ≥0 with

∥T (t )∥ ≤ Me−γ t ,

∀t ≥ 0

for some constants M , γ > 0. Next, let us present an existence theorem about pseudo almost periodic solution for Eqs. (1.1)–(1.2). Theorem 4.1. Assume that (A1) and the following assumptions hold. (A2) α ′ (t )eγ t , α ′′ (t )eγ t , β ′ (t )eγ t , β ′′ (t )eγ t are bounded and uniformly continuous, and for all t ≥ 0, max{∥F21 (t )∥, ∥F22 (t )∥} ≤

where ∥ · ∥1 denotes the norm of PAP (R+ , H01 (Ω )) and ∥ · ∥2 the norm of PAP (R+ , L2 (Ω )). e−ω Then Eqs. (1.1)–(1.2) has a pseudo almost periodic mild solution if ∥λ∥S 1 < 1−ML .

Proof. As noted in Section 1, Eqs. (1.1)–(1.2) can be transformed into the abstract nonlocal problem Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4) in the Banach space H01 (Ω ) × L2 (Ω ). We will show the conclusion by Corollary 3.6. So it remains to prove that all the assumptions of Corollary 3.6 hold. Since A generates a C0 -semigroup {T (t )}t ≥0 , (H1) holds except for the compactness of T (t ). Moreover, combining (A2) and the fact that

∥T (t )∥ ≤ Me−γ t ,

∀t ≥ 0

gives, by Theorem 4.1 in [3], that there exists a resolvent operator R(t ) satisfying γt

∥R(t )∥ ≤ Me− 2 ,

t ≥ 0.

Note that B(t ) = F (t )A. Then, (H2) holds by (A1). Since λ ∈ PAP (R+ , R), f ∈ PAP (R+ × X , X ). Moreover, we can get

∥f (t , u) − f (t , v)∥ ≤ L(t )∥u − v∥, where L(t ) = |λ(t )|L. As λ is bounded, it is easy to see that L ∈ BS p (R) for each p ≥ 1. In addition, since µ is also bounded,

∥f (t , u)∥ ≤ sup L(t ) · sup |µ(x)| · t ∈R+

x∈R



mesΩ < +∞,

for all t ∈ R+ and u ∈ X , which means that f (R+ × X ) is bounded. Thus, (H3) holds. By (A4), one can show that g : PAP (R+ , X ) → X is a continuous and compact mapping, i.e., (H5) holds.

H.-S. Ding et al. / Nonlinear Analysis: Real World Applications 13 (2012) 2659–2670

By (A5), there exists C ′ > 0 and k ∈ (0,

sup ∥g1 (u)∥ + sup ∥g2 (u)∥ < kC ,

∀C ≥ C ′ .

∥u∥2 ≤C

Combining this with the fact that u0 = 0, f (R+ × X ) is bounded, and

∥g (u)∥ ≤ sup ∥g1 (u)∥ + sup ∥g2 (u)∥,

sup ∥u∥PAP (R+ ,X ) ≤C

Then, by Remark 3.7, we know that Eqs. (1.1)–(1.2) has a pseudo almost periodic mild solution.



Moreover, we give one more example to illustrate our abstract results. Example 4.2. Consider the following integro-differential equation with nonlocal initial condition:

  t sin[u(t , x)] 1 −(t −s)   e uxx (s, x)ds + + a(t ), ut (t , x) = uxx (t , x) + 1 + t2  1  +∞ 0 4 2   u(0, x) = xe−t u(t , η)dtdη, x ∈ (0, 1), 0

It is well-known that A generates a compact C0 semigroup T (t ) satisfying 2

∥T (t )∥ ≤ e−π t ,

t ≥ 0,

which means that (H1) holds. In addition, it is easy to verify that (H2) and (H3) hold. Moreover, by Grimmer [3, Theorem 4.1], the resolvent operator of Eq. (4.1) satisfies 1

∥R(t )∥ ≤ e− 2 t ,

t ≥ 0.

Now, let us verify that (H4) holds. Take a bounded sequence

{un } ⊂ PAP (R+ , X ) such that {un } is uniformly convergent in every compact subsets of R+ . ∀ε > 0, there exists a constant M > 0 such that

t > M.

2670

H.-S. Ding et al. / Nonlinear Analysis: Real World Applications 13 (2012) 2659–2670

Combining this with the fact that {un } is uniformly convergent in [0, M ], we can show that for ε > 0, there exists N > 0 such that 1

for all t ∈ R and n, m > N. This means that {f (·, un (·))} is convergent in BC (R+ , X ). Next, let us show that (H5) holds. Let E ⊂ PAP (R+ , X ) be a bounded subset. By some direct calculations, we can get +

sup ∥u∥,

u ∈ E,

and

{g (u) : u ∈ E } are equi-continuous on [0, 1]. Then, by using Arzela–Ascoli’s theorem, we know that g (E ) is precompact in C [0, 1], and thus precompact in X . Also, the continuity of g can be verified. Noting that M = 1, ω = 21 and u0 = 0, by a direct calculation, one can get

which yields that (3.1) holds. So all the assumptions of Theorem 3.5 hold. Thus, the nonlocal problem (4.1) has a pseudo almost periodic mild solution. Acknowledgments H.S.
