Here u : [0, T ] → X is an unknown function, A(t) : D(A(t)) ⊂ X → 2X is an m-accretive operator, G : [0, T ] × Lp (−r, 0; X) × X → X is a mapping, Lt : Lp (−r, t; X) → X is a mapping, ut : [−r, 0] → X satisfy ut (s) = u(t + s) for every s ∈ [−r, 0], and 0 ∈ ¯ where D¯ = D(A(t)) (independent of t). Lp (−r, 0; X) for 1 p < ∞ with 0 (0) ∈ D, The existence problems for this kind have been studied under various different conditions by many authors, for instance, Ha et al. [7], Ha and Shin [6], Kartsatos and Liu [9], Kartsatos and Shin [10], Mitidieri and Vrabie [11,12]. In particular, Kartsatos and Shin [10] studied nonlinear abstract functional evolution equation du(t) + A(t)u(t) G(t, ut ), dt

u(0) = 0 (t),
−r t 0
to prove the existence of local solutions by the compactness methods with continuity of G : [0, T ] × C([−r, 0]; X) → X and 0 ∈ C([−r, 0]; X). They utilized Schauder’s fixed point theorem in C([0, T ]; X) as in others (for instance, Mitidieri and Vrabie [11,12] in the case when A = A(t) is independent of t). Recently, using the theory of compact nonlinear semigroups and fixed point technique (Schauder’s fixed point theorem in Lp (0, T ; X) as in [17]), Ha and Shin [6] proved the existence of local solutions to problem (1.1) with Lipschitz continuity of G and Lt in the case when A = A(t) is independent of t. Their results improved those of the quasi-nonlinear t case in [7,9] when Lt u = 0 k(t, s, us ) ds for every t ∈ [0, T ] to the fully nonlinear case. In this paper, by using Schauder’s fixed point theorem in Lp (0, T ; X) for 1 p ∞, we establish the local existence of integral solutions of problem (1.1) in the case when the evolution operator U (t, s) generated by {A(t)} is equicontinuous. Further, by utilizing the relative compactness of {uf : f ∈ B} in Lp (0, T ; X) for 1 p < ∞ under the assumption that the resolvent operator J (t) = (I + A(t))−1 is compact for every > 0 and B is a bounded subset of L1 (0, T ; X) satisfying the condition of equiintegrable type, we show the existence of local solution of problem (1.1) in the case when the resolvent operator J (t) = (I + A(t))−1 is compact for every > 0. Our results improve the main results of Ha and Shin [6]. Also our work may be viewed as an attempt to develop a general existence theory for abstract delay problems of general form (1.1) under various compactness assumptions.
2. Preliminaries Let X be a real Banach space with norm and X ∗ be the dual space of X. A set-valued operator A in X with domain D(A) and range R(A) is said to be accretive if x1 −x2 x1 − x2 + (y1 − y2 ) for all > 0 and yi ∈ Ax i , i = 1, 2, . . . , A is called m-accretive if it is accretive and R(I + A) = X for all > 0. (Here I stands for the identity on X.) For each T 0, let {A(t) : 0 t T } be a family of nonlinear (possibly multivalued) operators A(t) : D(A(t)) ⊂ X → 2X with D(A(t)) = D¯ (independent of t) satisfying the following assumptions, which have been considered by Pavel [13–16]: (C1) {A(t) : 0 t T } is a family of m-accretive operators on X.

(C2) There exist a continuous function q : [0, T ] → X, and a nondecreasing bounded (on bounded subsets) function L : [0, ∞) → [0, ∞) such that y1 − y2 , x1 − x2 s − q(t) − q(s)x1 − x2 L(max{x1 , x2 }) for all 0 s t T , y1 ∈ A(t)x1 and y2 ∈ A(s)x2 . Here the function ·, ·s : X×X → R is defined by y, xs =sup{x ∗ (y) : x ∗ ∈ J (x)}, where J : X → X∗ is the duality mapping of X. Recall that {A(t)} which satisfies conditions (C1) and (C2) generates an evolution operator U (t, s) via the following formula: U (t, s)x ≡ lim

for all x ∈ D¯ and all 0 s t T and U (t, s) is an evolution operator in the following sense: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv)
¯ U (s, s) = I, 0 s t T , U (t, s) : D¯ → D, U (t, s)U (s, r) = U (t, r), 0 r s t T , the function (t, s, x) → U (t, s)x is continuous, ¯ U (t, s)x − U (t, s)y x − y, 0 s t, x, y ∈ D.
We say that the evolution operator U is compact if U (t, s) maps bounded subsets of D¯ into relatively compact subsets of D¯ for all 0 s t T . We refer to [8] for an example. Next, we consider the initial value problem du(t) + A(t)u(t) f (t), dt
0t T ,
u(0) = u0 ,
(2.2)
¯ where A(t) is m-accretive in X, f ∈ L1 (0, T ; X) and u0 ∈ D. ¯ is said to be an integral solution Definition 2.1 (Pavel [13]). A function u ∈ C([0, T ]; D) of problem (2.2) if u(0) = u0 and the following inequalities are satisfied: t (f () − y, u() − xs u(t) − x2 − u(s) − x2 2 s

for all 0 s t T , r ∈ [0, T ], x ∈ D(A(r)) and y ∈ A(r)x, q and L as in (C2), and C = L(max{u, x}), where u = sup0 t T u(t). It can be shown that if (C1) and (C2) are fulfilled, then for each u0 ∈ D¯ and f ∈ problem (2.2) has a unique integral solution. Moreover if v is the integral solution of the problem L1 (0, T ; X),
dv(t) + A(t)v(t) g(t), dt
v(0) = v0

¯ then we refer to for g ∈ L1 (0, T ; X) and v0 ∈ D, t f () − g() d u(t) − v(t) u(s) − v(s) + s
(2.4)
for all 0 s t T as “Bénilan’s inequality” [2]. And the function t → U (t, s)u0 is an integral solution to the problem u (t) + A(t)u(t) 0, u(0) = u0 , 0 s t T . For these facts, we refer the reader to [13] or [14, Chapter 1]. Now we mention the relation between the evolution operator U (t, s) and the resolvent operator J (t). To this end, let U (t, s) be the evolution operator generated by {A(t)} via f ormula (2.1) and J (t) = (I + A(t))−1 be the operator from X into D¯ for each > 0. It is known that the following inequalities: t 2 U (t, s)x − x U (, s)x − x d + J (s)x − x t −s t −s s t C + q() − q(s) d (2.5) t −s s and
t −s J (s)x − x + (t − s)L(J (s)x) U (t, s)x − x 2 + × sup{q(t) − q(s) : t, s ∈ [0, T ], |t − s| T }
(2.6)
¯ 0 s t T and > 0, where C = C(x, s) is a positive constant hold for every x ∈ D, with property that C = C(x, s) is bounded on x-bounded set, and L and q are as in (C2). For proof of this result, known as the extension of Brézis’s inequalities [3], we refer to [14, Chapter 1; 16]. We prepare the following lemma, which improves that in [18] (cf. [19]). Lemma 2.2. Assume that {A(t)} satisfies conditions (C1) and (C2). Let U (t, s) be the evolution operator generated by {A(t)} via f ormula (2.1), f ∈ L1 (0, T ; X), and u0 ∈ ¯ Let u be the unique integral solution of (2.2) on [0, T ] corresponding to f and u0 . Then D. for all t ∈ (0, T ], l ∈ [0, T ) and h > 0 with t − h ∈ [0, T ], l + h ∈ [0, T ], t f () d (2.7) U (t, t − h)u(t − h) − u(t) t−h

(2.10)
Proof. We prove only (2.7) since (2.8) follows in a similar way. Let v h : [t − h, t] → D¯ be a function defined by v h = U (, t − h)u(t − h), Then
vh

dv h () + A()v h () 0, t − h t, v h (t − h) = u(t − h). d Applying (2.4) to v h and to u on [t − h, t], we obtain t f () d, U (t, t − h)u(t − h) − u(t) t−h
which proves (2.7). Next we prove (2.9). Eq. (2.10) follows in the same method. Let w : [0, T − h] → X be the function defined by w(l) = u(l + h),
0 l T − h.
Then w is the integral solution of problem dw(l) + A(l)w(l) f (l + h), dl From (2.4) we deduce
0 l T − h,

Since u(0) − w(0) = u0 − u(h), we obtain u(l) − u(l + h) U (h, 0)u0 − u0 + u(h) − U (h, 0)u0 l + f ( + h) − f () d. 0
Applying (2.8) to dominate u(h) − U (h, 0)u0 , we have (2.9), which completes the proof. Finally, let U (t, s) be the evolution operator generated by {A(t)} via f ormula (2.1). We recall that U (t, s) is said to be equicontinuous if for every bounded subset B ⊂ D¯ and every 0 s T , the family {U (·, s)y : [s, T ] → X, y ∈ B} is an equicontinuous family of functions from [s, T ] into X (cf. [14, p. 43]).

3. Main results We begin with the following definition. Definition 3.1. A function u : [−r, T ] → X is said to be an integral solution of problem (1.1) if u(t) = 0 (t) for every t ∈ [−r, 0] and u; [0, T ] → X is an integral solution of problem (2.2) with G(t, ut , Lt u) and 0 (0) in place of f (t) and u0 , respectively. t We put ut,p = ( −r u()p d)1/p for every u ∈ Lp (−r, t; X) with t ∈ [0, T ] and consider the initial-value problem (1.1) under the following assumptions as in [7]: (L) For every t ∈ [0, T ], Lt : Lp (−r, t; X) → X satisfies (L1) Lt u − Lt v a(t)u − vt,p , (L2) Lt u − Ls u r1 (uT ,p )|t − s| for every t, s ∈ [0, T ] and u, v ∈ Lp (−r, T ; X) where a : [0, T ] → [0, ∞) is continuous and r1 : [0, ∞) → [0, ∞) is nondecreasing. (G) G : [0, T ] × Lp (−r, 0; X) × X → X satisfies (G1) G(t, , x) − G(t, , y) b(t)( − 0,p + x − y), (G2) G(t, , x) − G(s, , x) r2 (0,p , x)|t − s|, for every t, s ∈ [0, T ], , ∈ Lp (−r, 0; X) and x, y ∈ X, where b : [0, T ] → [0, ∞) is continuous and r2 : [0, ∞) × [0, ∞) → [0, ∞) is nondecreasing for both variables. Assume that (L) and (G) are satisfied. We put aT =maxt∈[0,T ] a(t) and bT =maxt∈[0,T ] b(t). Let u ∈ Lp (−r, T ; X). From (L), for every t ∈ [0, T ], Lt u Lt u − Lt 0 + Lt 0 − L0 0 + L0 0 a(t)ut,p + r1 (0)t + L0 0 at uT ,p + r1 (0)T + L0 0 = aT uT ,p + cT , where cT = r1 (0)T + L0 0 and hence from (G), for every t ∈ [0, T ], G(t, ut , Lt u) G(t, ut , Lt u) − G(t, 0, 0) + G(t, 0, 0) − G(0, 0, 0) + G(0, 0, 0) b(t)(ut 0,p + Lt u) + r2 (0, 0)t + G(0, 0, 0) bT (uT ,p + aT uT ,p + cT ) + r2 (0, 0)T + G(0, 0, 0) = (1 + aT )bT uT ,p + bT cT + r2 (0, 0)T + G(0, 0, 0).

Now we establish local existence results for nonlinear evolution Eq. (1.1) with delay condition. Theorem 3.2. Let A(t) satisfy (C1) and (C2). Assume that the evolution operator U (t, s) generated by {A(t)} via f ormula (2.1), 0 s t T , is equicontinuous and that (L) and ¯ Then there exists T ∈ (0, T0 ] (G) are satisfied. Let 0 ∈ Lp (−r, 0; X) with 0 (0) ∈ D. such that problem (1.1) has a local integral solution. 1/p

and u(t) = 0 (t) a.e. t ∈ [−r, 0] . Then K is a nonempty closed convex subset of Lp (−r, T0 ; X). We set K0 = {u|[0,T0 ] : u ∈ K}, where u|[0,T0 ] is the restriction of u on [0, T0 ]. Then K0 is a nonempty closed convex subset of Lp (0, T0 ; X). Consider the initial-value problem dv(t) + A(t)v(t) G(t, ut , Lt u), dt
0 t T0 ,
v(0) = 0 (0).
(3.3)
Then it follows from 0 (0) ∈ D¯ and (3.2) that there is a unique integral solution v to problem (3.3) on [0, T0 ]. Define an operator Q : K0 → Lp (0, T0 ; X) by Qu|[0,T0 ] = v for every u|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 . We show that Q has a fixed point. To do this, we shall make use of Schauder’s fixed point theorem.
1226
J.S. Jung / Nonlinear Analysis 60 (2005) 1219 – 1237
First, we prove that Q : K0 → K0 is a continuous operator. Let u|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 . Then u ∈ K and u ∈ Lp (−r, T0 ; X) with u(t) = 0 (t) a.e. t ∈ [−r, 0]. Since (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) − U (t, 0)0 (0) we have

We put w(t) =

Then w ∈ Lp (−r, T0 ; X) and so w ∈ K. This implies that Qu|[0,T0 ] = w|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 . and hence Q(K0 ) ⊂ K0 . Let w|[0,T0 ] , z|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 . Then w, z ∈ K and hence w, z ∈ Lp (−r, T0 ; X) with w(t) = z(t)= 0 (t) a.e. t ∈ [−r, 0]. Since it follows from (2.4) that (Qw|[0,T0 ] )(t) − (Qz|[0,T0 ] )(t)

we have, from (L1) and (G1), Qw|[0,T0 ] − Qz|[0,T0 ] Lp (0,T0 ;X) T0 1/p p = (Qw |[0,T0 ] )(t) − (Qz|[0,T0 ] )(t) dt 0 T0 1/p T0 G(, w , L w) − G(, z , L z) d 0 T0 1/p (w − z 0,p + aT0 w − z,p ) d bT0 T0 0 (1/p)+1

Thus Q is continuous in Lp (0, T0 ; X). Now we show that Q is compact. To this end, we first note that K0 is a bounded closed convex subset of Lp (0, T0 ; X) and hence Q(K0 ) is a bounded subset of Lp (0, T0 ; X). Let u|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 . Then u ∈ K and so u ∈ Lp (−r, T0 ; X) with u(t) = 0 (t) a.e. t ∈ [−r, 0]. Since U (t + h + , t + h) is nonexpansive and U (t + h + , t)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) − U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) converges uniformly to zero as h → 0, by (2.8) in Lemma 2.1,
J.S. Jung / Nonlinear Analysis 60 (2005) 1219 – 1237
1227
we have U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t + h) − U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t + h) − U (t + h + , t)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) + U (t + h + , t)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) − U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t + h) − U (t + h, t)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) + (h) t+h G(, u , L u) d + (h), t
where (h) → 0 as h → 0. Hence we have (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t + h) − (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t + h) − U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t + h) + U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t + h) − U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) + U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) − (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t + h) − (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t + h) t+h G(, u , L u) d + (h) + t
+ U (t + h + , t + h)(Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) − (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t). Since U (t, s) is equicontinuous, by letting → 0, we obtain t+h G(, u , L u) d + (h). (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t + h) − (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) t

uniformly for u|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 . From the same lines as those in the proof of Theorem A.1 (Proposition 2.5) in [5], it follows that {Qu|[0,T0 ] ; u|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 } is relatively compact in Lp (0, T0 ; X), and hence Q is compact. Therefore, by Schauder’s fixed point theorem, there exists a fixed point u|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 of Q. We define (u|[0,T0 ] )(t), 0 t T0 , u(t) ¯ = a.e. t ∈ [−r, 0]. 0 (t) It is clear that u¯ is a local integral solution of problem (1.1). This completes the proof. Theorem 3.3.

Then, K is a nonempty closed convex subset of L∞ (−r, T0 ; X) with respect to · T0 .p . We set K0 = {u|[0,T0 ] : u ∈ K}. Then, K0 is a nonempty closed convex subset of L∞ (0, T0 ; X) with respect to ·Lp (0,T0 ;X) . As in the proof of Theorem 3.2, we consider the initial-value problem dv(t) + A(t)v(t) G(t, ut , Lt u), dt

v(0) = 0 (0)
(3.7)
and define an operator Q : K0 → Lp (0, T0 ; X) by Qu|[0,T0 ] = v for every u|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 , where v is a unique integral solution of problem (3.7). We shall show that Q : K0 → K0 is a continuous in Lp (0, T0 ; X). Let u|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 . Then u ∈ K and ess sup0 t T0 u . Since it follows from (2.4) and (3.6) that T0 G(t, ut , Lt u) dt (Qu|[0,T0 ] )(t) − U (t, 0)0 (0) 0

this implies that Qu|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 and so Q(K0 ) ⊂ K0 as in the proof of Theorem 3.2. From (3.4), Q is also continuous in Lp (0, T0 ; X). From the same lines as those in the proof of Theorem 3.2, it follows that Q is also compact. Hence, by Schauder’s fixed point theorem, there exists a fixed point u|[0,T0 ] ∈ K0 of Q. Hence, as in the proof of Theorem 3.2, problem (1.1) has a local integral solution. This completes the proof. Now we denote the integral solution u of problem (2.2) by uf , in order to exhibit the dependence of u on f ∈ L1 (0, T ; X). The following result is a time-dependent version of Theorem 4 in [17]. Lemma 3.4. Let {A(t)} satisfy (C1) and (C2) and U (t, s) be the evolution operator generated by {A(t)} via f ormula (2.1). Assume that the resolvent operator J (t)=(I +A(t))−1 from X into D(A(t)) is compact for every > 0. Let T > 0 and B be a bounded subset of L1 (0, T ; X) such that T −h f (t + h) − f (t) dt = 0 lim h→0

Proof. Let 1 p < ∞. Note that {uf (t) : f ∈ B, 0 t T } is a bounded subset of X. First we show that {J (r)uf : f ∈ B} is relatively compact in Lp (0, T ; X) for every > 0 and r ∈ [0, T ]. Since J (r) is compact for every > 0 and r ∈ [0, T ], {J (r)uf (t) : f ∈B, 0 t T } is a bounded subset in X and hence we have

uniformly for f ∈ B. Thus, from the same lines as those in the proof of Theorem A.1 (Proposition 2.5) in [5], it follows that {J (r)uf : f ∈ B} is relatively compact in Lp (0, T ; X) for every > 0 and r ∈ [0, T ]. Now, using (2.5), we have J (0)uf (t) − uf (t) 2 t U (, 0)uf (t) − uf (t) d + U (t, 0)uf (t) − uf (t) t 0 t C t + q() − q(s) d t 0

for f ∈ B, t ∈ [0, T ) and > 0 with t + ∈ [0, T ], where C is the constant in (2.5). At this point, we observe that U (, t)uf (t) is the unique integral solution of the problem dv () + A()v() 0, d

Since (t, s, x) → U (t, s)x is continuous and q is continuous, there exists a nondecreasing function t : [0, ∞) → [0, ∞), which depends on t with limh↓0 t (h) = 0 and satisfies

for each f ∈ B, t ∈ [0, T ), > 0 with t + ∈ [0, T ] and h ∈ [0, ] and ∈ [t, t + h]. Thus, from (3.10) and (3.11), we deduce that J (t)uf (t) − uf (t) 15 t (). So, we have

Then, K0 is a nonempty closed convex subset of L∞ (0, T0 ; X) with respect to ·Lp (0,T1 ;X) .

This implies that Qu|[0,T1 ] = w|[0,T1 ] ∈ K0 , and hence Q(K0 ) ⊂ K0 . From (3.4), Q : K0 → K0 is continuous in Lp (0, T1 ; X). Also it follows from Lemma 3.4 that {Qu|[0,T1 ] : u|[0,T1 ] ∈ K0 } is relatively compact in Lp (0, T1 ; X) and hence Q : K0 → K0 is compact. Thus, by Schauder’s fixed point theorem, there exists a fixed point u|[0,T1 ] ∈ K0 . Therefore, as in the proof of Theorem 3.2, problem (1.1) has a local integral solution. This completes the proof. Remark. (1) It is known by Calvert and Kartsatos [4] and Pavel [16] that the evolution operator U (t, s) generated by {A(t)} via f ormula (2.1) is compact for every 0 s < t T if and only if the following two conditions below hold: (i) For each t ∈ [0, T ] and > 0, the resolvent operator J (t) = (I + A(t))−1 of A(t) is compact.

(ii) For each t0 ∈ (s, T ], the family {t → U (t, s)x : x ∈ Y } is equicontinuous at t0 on ¯ bounded subsets Y ∈ D. This result is an extension of Brézis’s result [3]. Brézis studied that the nonlinear semigroup {S(t) : D(A) → D(A), t 0} generated by constant −A = −A(t) (independent of t) is compact if and only if the resolvent operator J = (I + A)−1 is compact for every > 0 and for each bounded subset Y of X, {S(·) : [0, ∞) → X, x ∈ Y } is equicontinuous at each t > 0. Thus our results are improvements of Ha and Shin’s results in [6] as well the time-dependent version of them. In fact, using the methods of Baras [1] and Shioji [17] in Lp (0, T ; X), Ha and Shin [6] considered problem (1.1) in the case when {S(t) : D(A) → D(A), t 0} and resolvent J are compact. (2) As in [6,7,9], our existence results can be adapted to handle the nonlinear integrodifferential equations with finite delay.
