Solutions of some functional-integral equations in Banach algebra (Q597469)

The authors study the existence of a solution to the functional-integral equation \[ x(t)= f\left( t,\int_0^t v(t,s,x(s))\,ds,x(\alpha(t))\right ) \cdot g\left( t,\int_0^a u(t,s,x(s))\,ds,x(\beta(t))\right ),\quad t\in [0,a]. \] As special cases this equation contains integral equations of both Volterra and Urysohn type. The proof depends on measures of noncompactness in the space of continuous functions. The assumptions include the existence of a constant \(m\) such that \(| f(t,y,0)| \leq m\) and \(| g(t,y,0)| \leq m\) and the fact that both \(f\) and \(g\) are Lipschitz continuous with respect to their last variable with a constant \(k\) that satisfies \(4km< 1\).
