Lecture 1 Correct solvability of an abstract functional differential equations with unbounded operator coefficients in Hilbert space. Applications of these results to study of functional partial differential equations. At this lecture I plan to present the results about correct solvability for an abstract Functional Differential Equations (FDE) in Hilbert space. I”ll formulate the results obtained by R. Datko [1], G.Di Blasio, K.Kunisch, E. Sinestrari [6]– [8], J. Wu [28] and compare it with my results in this field (see [30]– [32] for more details). I”ll pay special attention to the equations with variable delays and unbounded coefficients on the delay terms. Majority of authors study the case constant delays and bounded operator coefficients on the delay terms. Above mentioned FDE is an abstract form of partial FDE, arising in various applications. Many interesting examples of such partial FDE, arising in Population Ecology, in Climate Models, in Control Theory, in Structured Population Models are presented in monograph of Jianhong Wu [28]. I”ll speak about some of these examples. It is relevant to note that we have several joint works with Jianhong Wu and I”ll formulate several our joint results at this lecture (see [14], [25], [26] for more details). In addition, I plan to demonstrate the examples of very unstable FDE with the delay in highest derivatives terms (see [36] for details). Lecture 2 0 Description of C - semigroups generators of shift operator on the trajectories of the solutions of functional differential equations of neutral type. At the second lecture I’ll present different approaches in introducing semigroups of the shift operators along the trajectories of the solutions of autonomous FDE. First of all, I mention the approach of Jack Hale and S. Verduyn Lunel [11], M.C. Delfour [4] and our approach with my coauthor S. Ivanov [33]. Then I plan to give the description of the generators of these semigroups and the representation of the resolvents of these generators. This information plays very important role in the researching the problems of completeness and basisness of the exponential solutions of autonomous FDE. In turn completeness and basisness of exponential solutions plays significant role in the problems of Control Theory (see the results of M.C. Delfour and A. Manitius [2], [3], R.Rabah, G. Sklyar and Resounenko [19], [20] for more details). In addition, I’ll speak about analogy between the classification of functional differential equations and partial differential equations (see our joint work with A. D. Myskis [37]). Lecture 3 Riesz basisness of the exponential solutions system of autonomous functional differential equations of neutral type. 1 At my third lecture I’ll present the results about Riesz basisness of the exponential solutions for autonomous neutral equations in Sobolev spaces. Then I’ll show how on the base of Riesz basisness is possible to obtain the sharp estimates for the strong solutions of above mentioned equations. It is relevant to underline that these estimates are the most strict for this class of functional differential equations now. Rather complete description of these is given in the second part of the work [34], see also [33]. Along with the problems of Riesz basisness of exponential solutions I plan to formulate the results about completeness of exponential solutions (The results of S. Verduyn Lunel [21] - [23], N. Levinson and C. McCalla [13], M. C. Delfour and A. Manitius [2], [3]) and deeply connected with the problem of existence of nontrivial solutions for autonomous functional differential equations decaying rapidly then any exponential. Rather complete description of the results in this field can find in well-known monograph of J. Hale and S. Verduyn Lunel ”Introduction to Functional Differential Equations”, Springer-Verlag, vol. 99, 1993 [11]. Lecture 4 Correct solvability of Volterra integrodifferential equations with unbounded operator coefficients in Sobolev spaces of vector-functions. Applications of these results to studying of Volterra integro-partial differential equations arising in the theory of viscoelasticity, theory of heat transfer in the materials with memory (Gurtin-Pipkin equations). At the fourth lecture I’ll formulate the results on correct solvability for integrodifferential equations with unbounded coefficients in Hilbert space. The main part of these equations is an abstract hyperbolic equations disturbed by Volterra integral operators. These integrodifferential equations are an operator models for a wide class of integrodifferential equations with partial derivatives on the space variables arising in various applications: viscoelasticity theory, theory of haet transfer in the materials with memory (GurtinPipkin equations see [10]). Now there exists extensive literature in this field. We restrict our considerations by citing only two well known monographs in this field [18], [29]. I’ll underline the specific features of our approach and describe the difference between our results ([35], [38]–[39])and results of the authors (L. Pandolfi [17], R. Miller [15], R. Wheeler [16], R. Decsh and R. Miller [5]). Lecture 5 Spectral analysis of hyperbolic Volterra integrodifferential equations. The spectra of operator-functions which are the symbols of these equations. The material of this lecture is rather new and I do not know its analogous in existing literature. The main purpose is to provide the analysis the 2 structure of resolvent set and spectra of the operator functions which are the symbols for hyperbolic Volterra integrodifferential equations. The information about resolvent set and spectra of these operator-functions plays very important role in the researching qualitative and asymptotic properties for the solutions of equations above mentioned. It is quite understandable because of we use the inverse of Laplace transform acting on the Laplace image of the solution. In turn, the Laplace image of the operator-functions which are the symbols of the equations mentioned above are main part of Laplace image for the solutions. In a sense this approach is similar to Laplace operational method using for ordinary differential equations. There is possibility to obtain the representation for the solutions the above mentioned equations on the base of the information about spectra, resolvent set and estimates of operator functions which are symbols of integrodifferential equations (see [35], [38], [39] for more details). Lecture 6 Applications of abstract results to integro-partial differential equations arising in the theory of viscoelasticity, theory of heat transfer in the materials with memory etc. In this lecture I’ll discuss in more detail the integro-partial differential equations arising in viscoelasticity theory [29], Gurtin-Pipkin equation [10] describing heat propagation with finite speed in the materials with memory. I’ll describe the way following to which the abstract results about abstract integrodifferential equations can be used to the researching specific integropartial differential equations. Moreover, I’ll interpret the results obtained for the abstract integrodifferential equations on the examples of its concrete realizations as integro-partial differential equations.
