Global and pullback attractors of set-valued skew product flows (Q2504889)

The authors investigate the asymptotic behaviour of a general set-valued skew product flow, that is, a set-valued cocycle mapping (coming from a non-autonomous differential equation or inclusion) driven by another autonomous system. In section 2, they recall the concepts of skew-product flows, which allow to transform a non-autonomous problem into a autonomous one. In particular, a generalization of the theorem of Barbashin is established. Then, absorptivity conditions which ensure the existence of several types of attractors for such set-valued systems are established in the sections 3 and 4. There and in section 5, the topological properties of and relations between these attractors in forward and backward senses and their strong and weak versions are analyzed. Several illustrative examples are provided in section 6. In the last section, all necessary proofs are done in detail.
