Weighted resolvent estimates for Volterra operators on unbounded intervals (Q1178481)

The authors consider a Volterra integral operator \((Vf)(x)=\int_{y\in I,y\leq x}V(x,y)f(y)dy\), \(x\in I\), where \(I\subset\mathbb{R}\) is an interval which may be unbounded. Given a continuous positive weight function \(w\) on \(I\), one defines for continuous functions \(g: I\to R\) the \(w\)-norm \(\| f\|(w)=\sup_{x\in I}(| f(x)| w(x)^{-1})\) and the Banach space \(B(w)\) of continuous functions on \(I\) with finite \(w\)-norm. A condition for boundedness of the Volterra operator and of \((\lambda I- V)^{-1}\) (\(\lambda\neq 0\) in \(\mathbb{C}\)) is given.
