On a higher-order evolution equation with a Stepanov-bounded solution (Q1777915): Difference between revisions

The author studies periodicity of solutions for the \(n\)th-order evolution equation \[ u^{(n)}- Au^{(n-1)}= f \] in a Banach space \(X\). It is proven that if \(X\) is reflexive, \(A\) is the infinitesimal generator of a strongly almost-periodic group, \(f\) is continuous and Stepanov almost-periodic, and \(u\) is a strong solution with \(u\) and \(u^{(n-1)}\) Stepanov bounded, then \(u,u',\dots, u^{(n-1)}\) are each strongly almost-periodic. Another result of this type is proven in the case in which \(X\) is not necessarily reflexive. The two most recent items in the bibliography are from 1975 and 1985.
