One class of input-output relations for linear systems with infinite memory (Q1180951)

Let \(L_ 2\) be the space of all measurable functions from \(R\) into \(R_ n\) whose squares are integrable. Denote by \(\mathcal D\) the set of operators \(D\) in \(L_ 2\) of the form \((Dx)(t)=\sum^ \infty_{m=1} a_ m(t)x(t+h_ m)\) where \(h_ m\in R\) and \(a_ m\) are bounded measurable \(n\times n\) matrix-valued functions. Denote by \(\mathcal J\) the set of operators in \(L_ 2\) of the form \((Jx)(t)=\int^ \infty_{-\infty} K(t,s)x(s)ds\) where \(K\) is a measurable \(n\times n\) matrix-valued function. Consider the control system \(Ty=u\) where \(T\in{\mathcal D}+{\mathcal J}\). The existence-uniqueness theorems of the solution of the form \(f=Ru\), \(R\in{\mathcal D}+{\mathcal J}\), are given. The proof of the main result had been given by the author elsewhere [\textit{V. G. Kurbatov}, Linear differential-difference equations, Voronezh Univ. Press (1990) (in Russian)]. For the case where the space \(L_ 2\) is on \([0,\infty)\), the problem is also considered.
