Existence of mild solutions for a semilinear integrodifferential equation with nonlocal initial conditions (Q1938264)

Summary: Using the Hausdorff measure of noncompactness and a fixed-point argument, we prove the existence of mild solutions for the semilinear integrodifferential equation subject to nonlocal initial conditions \[ u'(t) = Au(t) + \int^t_0 B(t - s)u(s)ds + f(t, u(t)),\quad t \in [0, 1], \] \[ u(0) = g(u), \] where \(A : D(A) \subseteq X \rightarrow X\), and, for every \(t \in [0, 1]\), the maps \(B(t) : D(B(t)) \subseteq X \rightarrow X\) are linear closed operators defined in a Banach space \(X\). We assume further that \(D(A) \subseteq D(B(t))\) for every \(t \in [0, 1]\), and the functions \(f : [0, 1] \times X \rightarrow X\) and \(g : C([0, 1]; X) \rightarrow X\) satisfy appropriate conditions.
