Abstract:
The well-posedness of initial value problems for abstract integrodifferential equations with unbounded operator coefficients in Hilbert spaces is studied, and spectral analysis of the operator functions that are the symbols of these equations is performed. The equations under consideration are an abstract form of linear partial integrodifferential equations arising in viscoelasticity theory, which have a number of other important applications. Results concerning the well-posedness of these integrodifferential equations in weighted Sobolev spaces of vector functions defined on the positive half-line with values in a Hilbert space are obtained. The localization and structure of the spectrum of the operator functions that are the symbols of these equations are established.
