Krasnosel'skii type formula and translation along trajectories method for evolution equations (Q953810)

The paper presents a Krasnosel'skij type degree formula for the abstract evolution equation \[ \dot{u}=-Au+F(u) \] in a separable Banach space \(E\), where \(A: D(A)\to E\) is a closed linear operator, \(-A\) generates a \(C_0\)-semigroup of bounded linear operators of \(E\), and \(F: E\to E\) is a locally Lipschitz \(k\)-set contraction. The obtained degree formula is applied to a nonautonomous periodic problem and an average principle is derived.
