The Ulam stability of first order linear dynamic equations on time scales (Q681243)

The authors study the Ulam type stability for a first order linear dynamic equation and its adjoint equation on a time scale. A typical result reads as follows. Let \(p\) be a positively regressive rd-continuous function on \([a,b]\) and \(f\) be an rd-continuous function on \([a,b]\). For a given \(\varepsilon>0\), if an \(rd\)-continuously differentiable function \(y\) satisfies the inequality \(|y^\Delta-p(t)y-f(t)|\leq\varepsilon\) for all \(t\in[a,b]^\kappa\), then there exists a solution \(x\) of the equation \(x^\Delta=p(t)x+f(t)\) such that \(|y(t)-x(t)|\leq\varepsilon\int_a^b e_p(t,\sigma(\tau))\Delta\tau\) for all \(t\in[a,b]\).
