Existence and regularity for a class of integrodifferential equations of parabolic type (Q1070167)

The authors investigate by Laplace transform methods the integrodifferential equation \(u'(t)=Au(t)+\int^{t}_{0}K(t- s)Au(s)ds+f(t)\) where A is the generator of an analytic semigroup in a Banach space X and f:[0,T]\(\to X\), K:[0,T]\(\to {\mathbb{R}}\) are given. The existence of a weak, strong and strict solution for the Cauchy problem is obtained together with an application to a parabolic partial integrodifferential equation.
