Representation of the solution operator generated by functional differential equations (Q913081)

This paper deals with the neutral functional differential equations with infinite delay \((1)\quad \frac{d}{dt}(D(t)X_ t)=f(t,X_ t)\) in a fading memory space. A decomposition theorem for the solution operator generated by (1) is given, which represents the solution operator as the sum of a bounded linear operator with zero spectrum and a conditionally completely continuous operator. Then, some applications to the existence of periodic solutions are also given.
