[For the entire collection see Zbl 0877.00009.] The article deals with the following inverse problem: Find functions \(w(x,t)\) and \(\lambda(x)\) satisfying the equation \[ w_t=Aw+\lambda(x)\cdot f(t)\quad (x\in D\subset \mathbb R^n,\;t\in (a,b)) \] under the conditions \[ w\big|_{t=a}=w_a(x),\quad w\big|_{t=b}=w_b(x) \] (here \(f(t)\), \(w_a(x)\), and \(w_b(x)\) are known functions) with some boundary conditions assumed that provide well-posedness of the boundary value problem for \(A\). By \textit{Yu. E. Anikonov} in [Dokl. Akad. Nauk 334, No.3, 263-264 (1994, Zbl 0832.35062)] and by \textit{Yu. E. Anikonov} and \textit{M. P. Vishnevskij} in [Sib. Math. J. 37, No.5, 847-859 (1996, Zbl 0874.35127)], formal solutions were constructed to the above problem in terms of the Fourier transform or series and some conditions were given under which formal solutions actually become regular solutions. The article under review continues this research. The authors state new conditions on \(f(t)\), \(w_a(x)\), \(w_b(x)\), and \(A\) under which a formal solution may be constructed and turns out to be a regular solution. Some nonuniqueness cases are described. Besides, the authors give similar results for matrix equations of the above type.
