A note on the uniqueness and attractive behavior of solutions for nonlinear Volterra equations

In this paper we prove that positive solutions of some nonlinear Volterra integral equations must be locally bounded and global attractors of positive functions. These results complete previous results about the existence and uniqueness of solutions and their attractive behavior.

Non-Lipschitz Homogeneous Volterra Integral Equations

In this chapter we introduce a class of nonlinear Volterra integral equations (VIEs) which have certain properties that deviate from the standard results in the field of integral equations. Such equations arise from various problems in shock wave propagation with nonlinear flux conditions. The basic equation we will consider is the nonlinear homogeneous Hammerstein–Volterra integral equation of convolution type $$\displaystyle u(t) = \int _0^t k(t-s) g(u(s))\,\mathrm {d}s. $$ When g(0) = 0, this equation has function u ≡ 0 as a solution (trivial solution). It is interesting to determine whether there exists a nontrivial solution or not. Classical results on integral equations are not to be …

Properties of solutions for nonlinear Volterra integral equations

Some properties of non-locally bounded solutions for Abel integral equations are given. The case in which there exists two non-trivial solutions for such equations is also studied. Besides, some known results about existence, uniqueness and attractiveness of solutions for some Volterra equations are improved.
