Inverse problem for a weakly nonlinear ultraparabolic equation with three unknown functions of different arguments on the right-hand side (Q328514)

Numerous phenomena of mechanics, biology, physics and economics are modeled by problems with ultraparabolic equations. The inverse problems are connected with the determination of causes of the observed phenomena according to the known consequences of the phenomena. In the mathematical models, this corresponds to the determination of coefficients or the right-hand sides of equations under additional conditions imposed on the solutions. The paper studies the inverse problem of determination of three unknown functions of different arguments on the right-hand side of a weakly nonlinear ultraparabolic equation with mixed conditions and integral overdetermination conditions. Sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the generalized solution to the analyzed problem are established. The solutions whose components belong to Sobolev spaces are considered on a finite time interval. The Faedo-Galerkin method and the method of successive approximations are used to investigate the inverse problem and the corresponding direct problem. An example of a problem satisfying the imposed conditions is presented.
