Existence of solutions to Sobolev-type partial neutral differential equations (Q871318)

The authors consider the neutral differential equation of Sobolev-type \[ \frac{d}{dt}[B(u(t)+f(t,u(t-\tau_1))]+Au(t)=g(t,u(t),u(t-\tau_2)),\;0< t\leq T, \] with a nonlocal history condition \[ h(u_{| [-\tau,0]})=\phi \] in an infinite dimensional Banach space frame and, under some natural assumptions and by using Schauder's fixed point theorem, they prove a local existence result. A global existence result and an application illustrating the effectiveness of the abstract theory are also included.
