Abstract: In this paper we make a subtle use of tools from operator theory and the Schauder fixed-point theorem to establish the existence of pseudo-almost automorphic solutions to some classes of nonautonomous integro-differential equations with pseudo-almost automorphic forcing terms. To illustrate our main results, the existence of pseudo-almost automorphic solutions to a parabolic Neumann boundary value problem that models population genetics and nerve pulse propagation will be discussed.


The author considers the following semilinear differential equation of the form \[ \frac{du}{dt}=A(t)u+F(t,u)\quad\text{for }\;t\in\mathbb R, \] where \(X\) is a Banach space, \(F: \mathbb R\times X \to X\) is a continuous mapping and \(A(t)\) for \(t \in \mathbb R\) is a family of closed linear operators on \(X\) with domain \(D(A(t))\) (possibly not densely defined) satisfying the so-called Acquistapace-Terreni conditions. Under some additional conditions it is proved that the above equation possesses a pseudo almost automorphic solution. The proof of this result is based on the Schauder fixed point theorem. A similar result concerning the existence of pseudo almost automorphic solutions is also proved to the second differential equation of the form \[ \frac{d^2u}{dt^2}+a(t)\frac{du}{dt}+b(t)Au =f(t,u),\quad t\in \mathbb R, \] where \(H\) is an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space over the field of complex numbers, \(A:D(A)\subset H \to H\) is a self-adjoint linear operator whose spectrum consists of isolated eigenvalues \(0<\lambda_1<\lambda_2<\dots\), \(\lambda_n\to +\infty\) with each eigenvalue having a finite multiplicity \(\gamma_j\) equal to the multiplicity of the corresponding eigenspace and the functions \(a, b: \mathbb R \to (0,+\infty)\), \(f: \mathbb R\times H \to H\) are continuous, and satisfy some additional assumptions. To illustrate the above described results the author considers pseudo almost automorphic solutions to one-dimensional as well as to an \(n\)-dimensional nonautonomous Sine-Gordon equation.
