Controllability of second order impulsive neutral functional differential inclusions with infinite delay (Q1937077)

The problem of controllability for impulsive functional differential inclusions in Banach spaces has been studied extensively in the literature. The purpose of this paper is to study the controllability of impulsive partial neutral functional differential inclusions of second order, with infinite delay through the phase space defined by Hino, Murakami and Naito and without assuming compactness of the family of cosine operators. Specifically, the author is concerned with the inclusion form \[ \begin{cases}\frac{d}{dt}[y'(t)-f(t,y_t,y'(t))]\in Ay(t)+Bu(t)+F(t,y_t,y'(t));t\in J;\\ \Delta y|_{t=t_k}=I_k(y(t_k),y'(t_k));\\ \Delta y'|_{t=t_k}=\overline I_k(y(t_k),y'(t_k));\\ y(0)=\Phi;\qquad y'(0)=x_0,\end{cases} \] where \(A\) is the infinitesimal generator of a strongly continuous cosine family, and \(F\) is a bounded, closed and convex multi-valued map. The main controllability result in a separable Banach space of mild solutions using a fixed-point theorem for contraction multi-valued maps due to \textit{H. Covitz} and \textit{S. B. Jr. Nadler} [Isr. J. Math. 8, 5--11 (1970; Zbl 0192.59802)] is established in Section 3.
