1. INTRODUCTION

In this work, we study the solutions of the nonlinear differential system with maxima of the type

yβ€²​(t)=A​(t)​y​(t)+f​(t,y​(t),maxa≀ξ≀t​y​(ΞΎ))y^{\prime}(t)=A(t)y(t)+f(t,y(t),\underset{a\leq\xi\leq t}{\max}y(\xi)) (1.1)

as a perturbed equations of

xβ€²​(t)=A​(t)​x​(t).x^{\prime}(t)=A(t)x(t). (1.2)

Existence and uniqueness, inequalities of Čaplygin type and data dependence (monotony, continuity) results for the solution of the Cauchy problem of the system (1.1) shall be obtain using weakly Picard operator technique.

Differential equations with maxima arise naturally when solving practical phenomenon problems, in particular, in those which appear in the study of systems with automatic regulation and automatic control of various technical systems. In connections with many possible applications it is absolutely necessary to be developed qualitative theory of differential equations with maxima (see the monograph [1] and papers [2], [3], [4], [5], [9]).

We consider the following Cauchy problem

yβ€²(t)=A(t)y(t)+f(t,y(t),maxa≀ξ≀ty(ΞΎ)),t∈[a,∞[,y^{\prime}(t)=A(t)y(t)+f(t,y(t),\underset{a\leq\xi\leq t}{\max}y(\xi)),\ t\in[a,\infty[, (1.3)
y​(a)=y0.y(a)=y_{0}. (1.4)

Let ℝn\mathbb{R}^{n} be the Euclidian nn-space. For u=(u1,…,un)Tβˆˆβ„nu=(u_{1},\ldots,u_{n})^{T}\in\mathbb{R}^{n}, let β€–uβ€–:=max⁑{|u1|,…,|un|}\left\|u\right\|:=\max\{\left|u_{1}\right|,\ldots,\left|u_{n}\right|\} be the norm of uu. For a matrix A∈MnΓ—n​(ℝ),A=(ai​j),A\in M_{n\times n}(\mathbb{R}),\ A=(a_{ij}), we define the norm |A|\left|A\right| of AA by |A|:=supβ€–u‖≀1​β€–A​uβ€–\left|A\right|:=\underset{\left\|u\right\|\leq 1}{\sup}\left\|Au\right\|. Then |A|=max1≀i≀n​βˆ‘j=1n|ai​j|.\left|A\right|=\underset{1\leq i\leq n}{\max}\sum\limits_{j=1}^{n}\left|a_{ij}\right|.

Throughout this paper we consider that y0βˆˆβ„n,y_{0}\in\mathbb{R}^{n}, f∈C([a,∞[×ℝn×ℝn,ℝn)f\in C([a,\infty[\times\mathbb{R}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}^{n},\mathbb{R}^{n}) and X​(t)X(t) is the fundamental matrix of the system (1.2).

We remark that if y∈C1([a,∞[,ℝn)y\in C^{1}([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}) is a solution of the problem (1.3)–(1.4), then yy is a solution of

y(t)=X(t)Xβˆ’1(a)y0+∫atX(t)Xβˆ’1(s)f(s,y(s),maxa≀ξ≀sy(ΞΎ))ds,t∈[a,∞[y(t)=X(t)X^{-1}(a)y_{0}+\int_{a}^{t}X(t)X^{-1}(s)f(s,y(s),\underset{a\leq\xi\leq s}{\max}y(\xi))ds,t\in[a,\infty[ (1.5)

and if y∈C([a,∞[,ℝn)y\in C([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}) is a solution of (1.5), then y∈C1([a,∞[,ℝn)y\in C^{1}([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}) and is a solution of (1.3)–(1.4).

Also, if y∈C1([a,∞[,ℝn)y\in C^{1}([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}) is a solution of the problem (1.3), then yy is a solution of

y(t)=X(t)Xβˆ’1(a)y(a)+∫atX(t)Xβˆ’1(s)f(s,y(s),maxa≀ξ≀sy(ΞΎ))ds,t∈[a,∞[y(t)=X(t)X^{-1}(a)y(a)+\int_{a}^{t}X(t)X^{-1}(s)f(s,y(s),\underset{a\leq\xi\leq s}{\max}y(\xi))ds,t\in[a,\infty[ (1.6)

and if y∈C([a,∞[,ℝn)y\in C([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}) is a solution of (1.6) then y∈C1([a,∞[,ℝn)y\in C^{1}([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}) and is a solution of (1.3).

Let us consider the following operators:

Bf,Ef:C([a,∞[,ℝn)β†’C([a,∞[,ℝn),B_{f},E_{f}:C([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n})\rightarrow C([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}),

defined by

Bf​(y)​(t):=X​(t)​Xβˆ’1​(a)​y0+∫atX​(t)​Xβˆ’1​(s)​f​(s,y​(s),maxa≀ξ≀s​y​(ΞΎ))​𝑑s,B_{f}(y)(t):=X(t)X^{-1}(a)y_{0}+\int_{a}^{t}X(t)X^{-1}(s)f(s,y(s),\underset{a\leq\xi\leq s}{\max}y(\xi))ds,

and

Ef​(y)​(t):=X​(t)​Xβˆ’1​(a)​y​(a)+∫atX​(t)​Xβˆ’1​(s)​f​(s,y​(s),maxa≀ξ≀s​y​(ΞΎ))​𝑑s.E_{f}(y)(t):=X(t)X^{-1}(a)y(a)+\int_{a}^{t}X(t)X^{-1}(s)f(s,y(s),\underset{a\leq\xi\leq s}{\max}y(\xi))ds.

For y0βˆˆβ„n,y_{0}\in\mathbb{R}^{n}, we consider Xy0:={y∈C([a,∞[,ℝn)|y(a)=y0}.X_{y_{0}}:=\{y\in C([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n})|\ y(a)=y_{0}\}.

We remark that

C([a,∞[,ℝn)=βˆͺy0βˆˆβ„nXy0C([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n})=\underset{y_{0}\in\mathbb{R}^{n}}{\cup}X_{y_{0}}

is a partition of C([a,∞[,ℝn).C([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}).

The following lemma is important for our further considerations.

Lemma 1.1.

(I.A. Rus, [8]) For y0βˆˆβ„ny_{0}\in\mathbb{R}^{n} and f∈C([a,∞[×ℝn×ℝn,ℝn),f\in C([a,\infty[\times\mathbb{R}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}^{n},\mathbb{R}^{n}), the following conditions hold:

  • (a)

    Bf(C([a,∞[,ℝn))βŠ‚Xy0B_{f}(C([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}))\subset X_{y_{0}} and Ef​(Xy0)βŠ‚Xy0,βˆ€y0βˆˆβ„n;E_{f}(X_{y_{0}})\subset X_{y_{0}},\ \forall y_{0}\in\mathbb{R}^{n};

  • (b)

    Bf|Xy0=Ef|Xy0,βˆ€y0βˆˆβ„n.B_{f}|_{X_{y_{0}}}=E_{f}|_{X_{y_{0}}},\ \forall y_{0}\in\mathbb{R}^{n}.

In this paper we prove that the operator EfE_{f} is weakly Picard operator (see [7]), and we study the equation (1.3) in the terms of the weakly Picard operators theory.

2. WEAKLY PICARD OPERATORS

We start this section by presenting some notions and results from the weakly Picard operators theory.

Let (X,d)(X,d) be a metric space and A:X→XA:X\rightarrow X an operator. We shall use the following notations:

FA:={x∈X∣A​(x)=x}F_{A}:=\{x\in X\mid A(x)=x\} - the fixed point set of AA;

I​(A):={YβŠ‚X∣A​(Y)βŠ‚Y,Yβ‰ βˆ…}I(A):=\{Y\subset X\mid A(Y)\subset Y,Y\neq\emptyset\} - the family of the nonempty invariant subsets of AA.

We will denote by HH the Pompeiu-Housdorff functional, H:P​(X)Γ—P​(X)→ℝ+βˆͺ{+∞}H:P(X)\times P(X)\rightarrow\mathbb{R}_{+}\cup\{+\infty\} defined as

H​(Y,Z):=max⁑{supy∈Y​infz∈Z​d​(y,z),supz∈Z​infy∈Y​d​(y,z)}.H(Y,Z):=\max\{\underset{y\in Y}{\sup}\underset{z\in Z}{\inf}d(y,z),\underset{z\in Z}{\sup}\underset{y\in Y}{\inf}d(y,z)\}.
Definition 2.1.

Let (X,d)(X,d) be a metric space. An operator A:Xβ†’XA:X\rightarrow X is a Picard operator (PO) if there exists xβˆ—βˆˆXx^{\ast}\in X such that:

  1. (i)

    FA={xβˆ—};F_{A}=\{x^{\ast}\};

  2. (ii)

    the sequence (An​(x0))nβˆˆβ„•(A^{n}(x_{0}))_{n\in\mathbb{N}} converges to xβˆ—x^{\ast} for all x0∈Xx_{0}\in X.

Definition 2.2.

Let (X,d)(X,d) be a metric space. An operator A:Xβ†’XA:X\rightarrow X is a weakly Picard operator (WPO) if the sequence (An​(x))nβˆˆβ„•(A^{n}(x))_{n\in\mathbb{N}} converges for all x∈Xx\in X, and its limit (which may depend on xx) is a fixed point of AA.

Definition 2.3.

If AA is weakly Picard operator then we consider the operator A∞A^{\infty} defined by

A∞:Xβ†’X,A∞​(x):=limnβ†’βˆž​An​(x).A^{\infty}:X\rightarrow X,\ A^{\infty}(x):=\underset{n\rightarrow\infty}{\lim}A^{n}(x).
Remark 2.4.

It is clear that A∞​(X)=FA.A^{\infty}(X)=F_{A}.

Definition 2.5.

Let AA be a weakly Picard operator and c>0.c>0. The operator AA\ is cc -weakly Picard operator if

d​(x,A∞​(x))≀c​d​(x,A​(x)),βˆ€x∈X.d(x,A^{\infty}(x))\leq cd(x,A(x)),\ \forall x\in X.

For the theory of weakly Picard operator, see [6], [7], [8].

3. CAUCHY PROBLEM

Let us consider the following Banach space (BC([a,∞[,ℝn),βˆ₯β‹…βˆ₯)(BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}),\left\|\cdot\right\|) where BC([a,∞[,ℝn):={y∈C([a,∞[,ℝn)|yBC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}):=\{y\in C([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n})|\ y is bounded}\} with β€–yβ€–:=maxt∈[a,∞]​{|y1​(t)|,…,|yn​(t)|}\left\|y\right\|:=\underset{t\in[a,\infty]}{\max}\{\left|y_{1}(t)\right|,\ldots,\linebreak\left|y_{n}(t)\right|\}. We have the following existence and uniqueness theorem.

Theorem 3.1.

We suppose that:

  • (i)

    there exists Lf:[a,∞[→ℝ+L_{f}:[a,\infty[\rightarrow\mathbb{R}_{+} with ∫a∞Lf&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s<∞\int_{a}^{\infty}L_{f}(s)ds<\infty such that

    β€–f&ZeroWidthSpace;(t,u1,u2)βˆ’f&ZeroWidthSpace;(t,v1,v2)‖≀Lf&ZeroWidthSpace;(t)&ZeroWidthSpace;max⁑{|u1βˆ’v1|,|u2βˆ’v2|},\displaystyle\left\|f(t,u_{1},u_{2})-f(t,v_{1},v_{2})\right\|\leq L_{f}(t)\max\{\left|u_{1}-v_{1}\right|,\left|u_{2}-v_{2}\right|\},
    βˆ€t∈[a,∞[ and ui,viβˆˆβ„n,i=1,2.\displaystyle\quad\forall t\in[a,\infty[\text{ and }u_{i},v_{i}\in\mathbb{R}^{n},i=1,2.
  • (ii)

    β€–X&ZeroWidthSpace;(t)&ZeroWidthSpace;Xβˆ’1&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)‖≀K\left\|X(t)X^{-1}(s)\right\|\leq K, for a≀s≀t<∞;a\leq s\leq t<\infty;

  • (iii)

    ∫atβ€–f&ZeroWidthSpace;(s,0,0)β€–&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s<∞;\int_{a}^{t}\left\|f(s,0,0)\right\|ds<\infty;

  • (iv)

    K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atLf&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s<1.K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f}(s)ds<1.

Then the problem (1.3)–(1.4) has, in BC([a,∞[,ℝn)BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}), a unique solution and this solution is the uniform limit of the successive approximations.

Proof.

The problem (1.3)–(1.4) is equivalent with the fixed point equation

Bf(y)=y,y∈BC([a,∞[,ℝn).B_{f}(y)=y,\ y\in BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}).

We show that the space BC([a,∞[,ℝn)BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}) is invariant for the operator BfB_{f}.

If x∈BC([a,∞[,ℝn)x\in BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}), then

|Bf&ZeroWidthSpace;(x)&ZeroWidthSpace;(t)|\displaystyle\left|B_{f}(x)(t)\right|
≀|X&ZeroWidthSpace;(t)&ZeroWidthSpace;Xβˆ’1&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)&ZeroWidthSpace;y0|+∫at|X&ZeroWidthSpace;(t)&ZeroWidthSpace;Xβˆ’1&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)|&ZeroWidthSpace;|f&ZeroWidthSpace;(s,y&ZeroWidthSpace;(s),maxa≀ξ≀s&ZeroWidthSpace;y&ZeroWidthSpace;(ΞΎ))βˆ’f&ZeroWidthSpace;(s,0,0)|&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s\displaystyle\leq\left|X(t)X^{-1}(a)y_{0}\right|+\int_{a}^{t}\left|X(t)X^{-1}(a)\right|\left|f(s,y(s),\underset{a\leq\xi\leq s}{\max}y(\xi))-f(s,0,0)\right|ds
+∫at|X&ZeroWidthSpace;(t)&ZeroWidthSpace;Xβˆ’1&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)|&ZeroWidthSpace;|f&ZeroWidthSpace;(s,0,0)|&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s\displaystyle\quad+\int_{a}^{t}\left|X(t)X^{-1}(a)\right|\left|f(s,0,0)\right|ds
≀K&ZeroWidthSpace;y0+∫atK&ZeroWidthSpace;Lf&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;max⁑{|y&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)|,|maxa≀ξ≀s&ZeroWidthSpace;y&ZeroWidthSpace;(ΞΎ)|}&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s+∫atK&ZeroWidthSpace;|f&ZeroWidthSpace;(s,0,0)|&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s<∞.\displaystyle\leq Ky_{0}+\int_{a}^{t}KL_{f}(s)\max\left\{\left|y(s)\right|,\left|\underset{a\leq\xi\leq s}{\max}y(\xi)\right|\right\}ds+\int_{a}^{t}K\left|f(s,0,0)\right|ds<\infty.

So Bf(BC([a,∞[,ℝn))βŠ†BC([a,∞[,ℝn).B_{f}(BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}))\subseteq BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}).

On the other hand we have that (see [4])

|Bf&ZeroWidthSpace;(y1)&ZeroWidthSpace;(t)βˆ’Bf&ZeroWidthSpace;(y2)&ZeroWidthSpace;(t)|\displaystyle\left|B_{f}(y_{1})(t)\!-\!B_{f}(y_{2})(t)\right|\!

≀K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atLf&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;max⁑{|y1&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)βˆ’y2&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)|,maxa≀ξ≀s&ZeroWidthSpace;|y1&ZeroWidthSpace;(ΞΎ)βˆ’y2&ZeroWidthSpace;(ΞΎ)|}&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s\displaystyle\leq K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f}(s)\max\left\{\left|y_{1}(s)\!-\!y_{2}(s)\right|,\underset{a\leq\xi\leq s}{\max}\left|y_{1}(\xi)\!-\!y_{2}(\xi)\right|\!\right\}ds
≀(K∫atLf(s)ds)βˆ₯y1βˆ’y2βˆ₯,βˆ€t∈[a,∞[,βˆ€y1,y2∈BC([a,∞[,ℝn).\displaystyle\leq\left(K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f}(s)ds\right)\left\|y_{1}-y_{2}\right\|,\forall t\in[a,\infty[,\ \forall y_{1},y_{2}\in BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}).

So,

β€–Bf&ZeroWidthSpace;(y1)βˆ’Bf&ZeroWidthSpace;(y2)‖≀(K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atLf&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s)&ZeroWidthSpace;β€–y1βˆ’y2β€–,\left\|B_{f}(y_{1})-B_{f}(y_{2})\right\|\leq\left(K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f}(s)ds\right)\left\|y_{1}-y_{2}\right\|,

βˆ€t∈[a,∞[,βˆ€y1,y2∈BC([a,∞[,ℝn)\forall t\in[a,\infty[,\forall y_{1},y_{2}\in BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}), i.e., BfB_{f} is a contraction w.r.t. the norm βˆ₯β‹…βˆ₯\left\|\cdot\right\| on BC([a,∞[,ℝn)BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}). The proof follows from the Banach fixed point theorem. ∎

Remark 3.2.

In the conditions of Theorem 3.1, the operator BfB_{f} is Picard operator. But

Bf|Xy0=Ef|Xy0,βˆ€y0βˆˆβ„n.B_{f}|_{X_{y_{0}}}=E_{f}|_{X_{y_{0}}},\ \forall y_{0}\in\mathbb{R}^{n}.

Hence, the operator EfE_{f} is weakly Picard operator and FEf∩Xy0={yy0βˆ—},βˆ€y0βˆˆβ„n,F_{E_{f}}\cap X_{y_{0}}=\{y_{y_{0}}^{\ast}\},\forall y_{0}\in\mathbb{R}^{n}, where FEf={yy0βˆ—βˆˆXy0|Ef&ZeroWidthSpace;(yy0βˆ—)=yy0βˆ—}F_{E_{f}}=\{y_{y_{0}}^{\ast}\in X_{y_{0}}|E_{f}(y_{y_{0}}^{\ast})=y_{y_{0}}^{\ast}\} and yy0βˆ—y_{y_{0}}^{\ast} is the unique solution of the problem (1.3)–(1.4).

From the WPO theory, we present in the following sections inequalities of Čaplygin type and data dependence results for the solution of the system of differential equations.

4. INEQUALITIES OF ČAPLYGIN TYPE

From the weakly Picard operator theory we have

Theorem 4.1.

(Theorem of Čaplygin type) We suppose that:

  • (a)

    the hypothesis of Theorem 3.1 are satisfied;

  • (b)

    f&ZeroWidthSpace;(t,β‹…,β‹…):ℝ2&ZeroWidthSpace;n→ℝnf(t,\cdot,\cdot):\mathbb{R}^{2n}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^{n} is increasing, i.e., ui≀viβ‡’f(t,u1,u2)≀f(t,v1,v2),βˆ€t∈[a,∞[u_{i}\leq v_{i}\Rightarrow f(t,u_{1},u_{2})\leq f(t,v_{1},v_{2}),\ \forall t\in[a,\infty[ and ui,viβˆˆβ„n,i=1,2.u_{i},v_{i}\in\mathbb{R}^{n},i=1,2.

Let yy be a solution of equation (1.3) and xx a solution of the inequality

xβ€²(t)≀A(t)x(t)+f(t,x(t),maxa≀ξ≀tx(ΞΎ)),t∈[a,∞[.x^{\prime}(t)\leq A(t)x(t)+f(t,x(t),\underset{a\leq\xi\leq t}{\max}x(\xi)),\ t\in[a,\infty[.

Then

x&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)≀y&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)&ZeroWidthSpace; implies that &ZeroWidthSpace;x≀y.x(a)\leq y(a)\text{ implies that }x\leq y.
Proof.

In the terms of the operator Ef,E_{f}, we have

y=Ef&ZeroWidthSpace;(y)&ZeroWidthSpace; and &ZeroWidthSpace;x≀Ef&ZeroWidthSpace;(x),y=E_{f}(y)\text{ and }x\leq E_{f}(x),

and y&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)≀x&ZeroWidthSpace;(a).y(a)\leq x(a).

From Remark 3.2, EfE_{f} is weakly Picard operator. From the condition (b), Ef∞E_{f}^{\infty} is increasing ([7]). If y0βˆˆβ„n,y_{0}\in\mathbb{R}^{n}, then we denote by y~0\widetilde{y}_{0} the following function

y~0:[a,∞[→ℝn,y~0(t)=y0,βˆ€t∈[a,∞[.\widetilde{y}_{0}:[a,\infty[\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^{n},\ \widetilde{y}_{0}(t)=y_{0},\ \forall t\in[a,\infty[.

We have

x≀Ef&ZeroWidthSpace;(x)≀…≀Ef∞&ZeroWidthSpace;(x)=Ef∞&ZeroWidthSpace;(x~&ZeroWidthSpace;(a))≀Ef∞&ZeroWidthSpace;(y~&ZeroWidthSpace;(a))=y.x\leq E_{f}(x)\leq\ldots\leq E_{f}^{\infty}(x)=E_{f}^{\infty}(\widetilde{x}(a))\leq E_{f}^{\infty}(\widetilde{y}(a))=y.

∎

5. DATA DEPENDENCE: MONOTONY

The following concept is important for our further considerations.

Lemma 5.1.

(Comparison principle, [6]) Let (X,d,≀)(X,d,\leq) an ordered metric space and A,B,C:Xβ†’XA,B,C:X\rightarrow X be such that

  • (a)

    A≀B≀C;A\leq B\leq C;

  • (b)

    the operator A,B,CA,B,C, are WPOs;

  • (c)

    the operator BB is increasing.

Then x≀y≀zx\leq y\leq z imply that A∞&ZeroWidthSpace;(x)≀B∞&ZeroWidthSpace;(y)≀C∞&ZeroWidthSpace;(z).A^{\infty}(x)\leq B^{\infty}(y)\leq C^{\infty}(z).

From this abstract result we have

Theorem 5.2.

Let fi∈C([a,∞[×ℝ2&ZeroWidthSpace;n,ℝn),i=1,2,f_{i}\in C([a,\infty[\times\mathbb{R}^{2n},\mathbb{R}^{n}),i=1,2, be as in Theorem 3.1. We suppose that:

  • (i)

    f1≀f2≀f3;f_{1}\leq f_{2}\leq f_{3};

  • (ii)

    f2&ZeroWidthSpace;(t,β‹…,β‹…):ℝ2&ZeroWidthSpace;n→ℝnf_{2}(t,\cdot,\cdot):\mathbb{R}^{2n}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^{n} is increasing;

Let yi∈BC1([a,∞[,ℝn)y_{i}\in BC^{1}([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}) be a solution of the equation

yiβ€²(t)=A(t)yi(t)+fi(t,y(t),maxa≀ξ≀ty(ΞΎ)),t∈[a,∞[ and i=1,2,3.y_{i}^{\prime}(t)=A(t)y_{i}(t)+f_{i}(t,y(t),\underset{a\leq\xi\leq t}{\max}y(\xi)),\ t\in[a,\infty[\text{ and }i=1,2,3.

If y1&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)≀y2&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)≀y3&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)y_{1}(a)\leq y_{2}(a)\leq y_{3}(a), then y1≀y2≀y3.y_{1}\leq y_{2}\leq y_{3}.

Proof.

From Theorem 3.1 we have that the operator Efi,i=1,2,3,E_{f_{i}},i=1,2,3,\ are WPOs. From the condition (ii) the operator Ef2E_{f_{2}} is monotone increasing. From the condition (i) it follows that

Ef1≀Ef2≀Ef3.E_{f_{1}}\leq E_{f_{2}}\leq E_{f_{3}}.

Let y~i(a)∈BC([a,∞[,ℝn)\widetilde{y}_{i}(a)\in BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}) be defined by y~i(a)(t)=yi(a),βˆ€t∈[a,∞[\widetilde{y}_{i}(a)(t)=y_{i}(a),\ \forall t\in[a,\infty[. It is clear that

y~1(a)(t)≀y~2(a)(t)≀y~3(a)(t),βˆ€t∈[a,∞[.\widetilde{y}_{1}(a)(t)\leq\widetilde{y}_{2}(a)(t)\leq\widetilde{y}_{3}(a)(t),\ \forall t\in[a,\infty[.

From Lemma 5.1 we have that

Ef1∞&ZeroWidthSpace;(y~1&ZeroWidthSpace;(a))≀Ef2∞&ZeroWidthSpace;(y~2&ZeroWidthSpace;(a))≀Ef3∞&ZeroWidthSpace;(y~3&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)).E_{f_{1}}^{\infty}(\widetilde{y}_{1}(a))\leq E_{f_{2}}^{\infty}(\widetilde{y}_{2}(a))\leq E_{f_{3}}^{\infty}(\widetilde{y}_{3}(a)).

But yi=Ef&ZeroWidthSpace;i∞&ZeroWidthSpace;(y~i&ZeroWidthSpace;(a)),y_{i}=E_{fi}^{\infty}(\widetilde{y}_{i}(a)), and y1≀y2≀y3.y_{1}\leq y_{2}\leq y_{3}. ∎

6. DATA DEPENDENCE: CONTINUITY

Consider the Cauchy problem (1.3)–(1.4) and suppose the conditions of Theorem 3.1 are satisfied. Denote by yβˆ—&ZeroWidthSpace;(β‹…;y0,f)y^{\ast}(\cdot;y_{0},f)\ the solution of this problem.

In order to study the continuous dependence of the fixed points we will use the following result:

Theorem 6.1.

(I.A. Rus, [7]) Let (X,d)(X,d) be a complete metric space and A,B:X→XA,B:X\rightarrow X two operators. We suppose that

  • (i)

    the operator AA is a Ξ±\alpha-contraction;

  • (ii)

    FBβ‰ βˆ…;F_{B}\neq\emptyset;

  • (iii)

    there exists Ξ·>0\eta>0 such that

    d&ZeroWidthSpace;(A&ZeroWidthSpace;(x),B&ZeroWidthSpace;(x))≀η,βˆ€x∈X.d(A(x),B(x))\leq\eta,\ \forall x\in X.

Then, if FA={xAβˆ—}F_{A}=\{x_{A}^{\ast}\} and xBβˆ—βˆˆFB,x_{B}^{\ast}\in F_{B}, we have

d&ZeroWidthSpace;(xAβˆ—,xBβˆ—)≀η1βˆ’Ξ±.d(x_{A}^{\ast},x_{B}^{\ast})\leq\frac{\eta}{1-\alpha}.

Then, accordingly to Theorem 6.1 we have the result as follows.

Theorem 6.2.

Let y0i,fi,i=1,2y_{0}^{i},f_{i},i=1,2 be as in Theorem 3.1. Furthermore, we suppose that there exists Ξ·iβˆˆβ„+n,i=1,2\eta_{i}\in\mathbb{R}_{+}^{n},i=1,2 with ∫atΞ·2&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s<∞\int_{a}^{t}\eta_{2}(s)ds<\infty such that

  1. (i)

    β€–y01βˆ’y02‖≀η1;\left\|y_{0}^{1}-y_{0}^{2}\right\|\leq\eta_{1};

  2. (ii)

    β€–X&ZeroWidthSpace;(t)&ZeroWidthSpace;Xβˆ’1&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)‖≀K\left\|X(t)X^{-1}(s)\right\|\leq K for a≀s≀t<∞;a\leq s\leq t<\infty;

  3. (iii)

    βˆ₯f1(t,u,v)βˆ’f2(t,u,v)βˆ₯≀η2(t),βˆ€t∈[a,∞[,uβˆˆβ„n.\left\|f_{1}(t,u,v)-f_{2}(t,u,v)\right\|\leq\eta_{2}(t),\forall t\in[a,\infty[,u\in\mathbb{R}^{n}.

Then

β€–y1βˆ—&ZeroWidthSpace;(t;y01,f1)βˆ’y2βˆ—&ZeroWidthSpace;(t;y02,f2)‖≀K&ZeroWidthSpace;Ξ·1+K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atΞ·2&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s1βˆ’K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atLf&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s,\left\|y_{1}^{\ast}(t;y_{0}^{1},f_{1})-y_{2}^{\ast}(t;y_{0}^{2},f_{2})\right\|\leq\frac{K\eta_{1}+K\int_{a}^{t}\eta_{2}(s)ds}{1-K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f}(s)ds},

where yiβˆ—&ZeroWidthSpace;(t;x0i,fi),i=1,2y_{i}^{\ast}(t;x_{0}^{i},f_{i}),i=1,2 are the solution of the problem (1.3)–(1.4) with respect to y0i,fiy_{0}^{i},f_{i} and Lf=max⁑{Lf1,Lf2}.L_{f}=\max\left\{L_{f_{1}},L_{f_{2}}\right\}.

Proof.

Consider the operators By0i,fi,i=1,2.B_{y_{0}^{i},f_{i}},i=1,2. From Theorem 3.1 these operators are contractions.

Additionally

βˆ₯By01,f1(y)βˆ’By02,f2(y)βˆ₯≀KΞ·1+K∫atΞ·2(s)ds,βˆ€y∈BC([a,∞[,ℝn).\left\|B_{y_{0}^{1},f_{1}}(y)-B_{y_{0}^{2},f_{2}}(y)\!\right\|\leq K\eta_{1}+K\int_{a}^{t}\eta_{2}(s)ds,\ \forall y\in BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}).

Now the proof follows from the Theorem 6.1, with A:=By01,f1,B=By02,f2,Ξ·=K&ZeroWidthSpace;Ξ·1+K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atΞ·2&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑sA\!:=\!B_{y_{0}^{1},f_{1}},\ B\!=\!\!B_{y_{0}^{2},f_{2}},\ \eta\!=\!K\eta_{1}+K\int_{a}^{t}\eta_{2}(s)ds and Ξ±:=K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atLf&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s\alpha:=K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f}(s)ds, where Lf=max⁑{Lf1,Lf2}.L_{f}=\max\left\{L_{f_{1}},L_{f_{2}}\right\}. ∎

We shall use the cc-WPOs techniques to give some data dependence results.

Theorem 6.3.

(I.A. Rus, [7]) Let (X,d)(X,d) be a metric space and Ai:X→X,i=1,2.A_{i}:X\rightarrow X,\ i=1,2. Suppose that

  • (i)

    the operator AiA_{i} is cic_{i}-weakly Picard operator, i=1,2;i\!=\!1,2;

  • (ii)

    there exists Ξ·>0\eta>0 such that

    d&ZeroWidthSpace;(A1&ZeroWidthSpace;(x),A2&ZeroWidthSpace;(x))≀η,βˆ€x∈X.d(A_{1}(x),A_{2}(x))\leq\eta,\ \forall x\in X.

Then H&ZeroWidthSpace;(FA1,FA2)≀η&ZeroWidthSpace;max⁑{c1,c2}.H(F_{A_{1}},F_{A_{2}})\leq\eta\max\left\{c_{1},c_{2}\right\}.

Based upon Theorem 6.3 we have the next result.

Theorem 6.4.

Let f1f_{1} and f2f_{2} be as in Theorem 3.1. Let SEf1,SEf2S_{E_{f_{1}}},S_{E_{f_{2}}} be the solution sets of system (1.3) corresponding to f1f_{1} and f2f_{2}. Suppose that

  • (i)

    β€–X&ZeroWidthSpace;(t)&ZeroWidthSpace;Xβˆ’1&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)‖≀K\left\|X(t)X^{-1}(s)\right\|\leq K for a≀s≀t<∞;a\leq s\leq t<\infty;

  • (ii)

    there exists Ξ·βˆˆβ„+n,\eta\in\mathbb{R}_{+}^{n}, ∫atΞ·&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s<∞\int_{a}^{t}\eta(s)ds<\infty such that

    βˆ₯f1(t,u,v)βˆ’f2(t,u,v)βˆ₯≀η(t),βˆ€t∈[a,∞[,uβˆˆβ„n.\left\|f_{1}(t,u,v)-f_{2}(t,u,v)\right\|\leq\eta(t),\forall t\in[a,\infty[,u\in\mathbb{R}^{n}. (6.1)

Then

Hβˆ₯β‹…βˆ₯C&ZeroWidthSpace;(SEf1,SEf2)≀K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atΞ·&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s1βˆ’K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atLf&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s,H_{\left\|\cdot\right\|_{C}}(S_{E_{f_{1}}},S_{E_{f_{2}}})\leq\frac{K\int_{a}^{t}\eta(s)ds}{1-K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f}(s)ds},

where Lf=max⁑{Lf1,Lf2}L_{f}=\max\left\{L_{f_{1}},L_{f_{2}}\right\} and Hβˆ₯β‹…βˆ₯H_{\left\|\cdot\right\|} denotes the Pompeiu-Housdorff functional with respect to βˆ₯β‹…βˆ₯\left\|\cdot\right\| on BC([a,∞[,ℝn).BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}).

Proof.

In the condition of Theorem 3.1, the operators Ef1E_{f_{1}} and Ef2E_{f_{2}} are cic_{i}-weakly Picard operators, i=1,2i=1,2. Let Xy0:={y∈BC([a,∞[,ℝn)|y(a)=y0}.X_{y_{0}}:=\{y\in BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n})|\ y(a)=y_{0}\}. It is clear that Ef1|Xy0=Bf1,Ef2|Xy0=Bf2.E_{f_{1}}|_{X_{y_{0}}}=B_{f_{1}},\ E_{f_{2}}|_{X_{y_{0}}}=B_{f_{2}}. Therefore,

βˆ₯Ef12(y)βˆ’Ef1(y)βˆ₯≀(K∫atLf1(s)ds)βˆ₯Ef1(y)βˆ’yβˆ₯,βˆ€y∈BC([a,∞[,ℝn),\left\|E_{f_{1}}^{2}(y)-E_{f_{1}}(y)\right\|\leq\left(K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f_{1}}(s)ds\right)\left\|E_{f_{1}}(y)-y\right\|,\ \forall y\in BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}),
βˆ₯Ef22(y)βˆ’Ef2(y)βˆ₯≀(K∫atLf2(s)ds)βˆ₯Ef2(y)βˆ’yβˆ₯,βˆ€y∈BC([a,∞[,ℝn).\left\|E_{f_{2}}^{2}(y)-E_{f_{2}}(y)\right\|\leq\left(K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f_{2}}(s)ds\right)\left\|E_{f_{2}}(y)-y\right\|,\ \forall y\in BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}).

Now, choosing y01=K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atLf1&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑sy_{0}^{1}=K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f_{1}}(s)ds\ and y02=K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atLf2&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s,y_{0}^{2}=K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f_{2}}(s)ds, we get that Ef1E_{f_{1}} and Ef2E_{f_{2}} are cic_{i}-weakly Picard operators, i=1,2i=1,2 with c1=(1βˆ’y01)βˆ’1c_{1}=(1-y_{0}^{1})^{-1}\ and c2=(1βˆ’y02)βˆ’1\ c_{2}=(1-y_{0}^{2})^{-1}. From (6.1) we obtain that

βˆ₯Ef1(y)βˆ’Ef2(y)βˆ₯≀K∫atΞ·(s)ds,βˆ€y∈BC([a,∞[,ℝn).\left\|E_{f_{1}}(y)-E_{f_{2}}(y)\right\|\leq K\int_{a}^{t}\eta(s)ds,\ \forall y\in BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}).

Applying Theorem 6.3 we have that

Hβˆ₯β‹…βˆ₯&ZeroWidthSpace;(SEf1,SEf2)≀K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atΞ·&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s1βˆ’K&ZeroWidthSpace;∫atLf&ZeroWidthSpace;(s)&ZeroWidthSpace;𝑑s,H_{\left\|\cdot\right\|}(S_{E_{f_{1}}},S_{E_{f_{2}}})\leq\frac{K\int_{a}^{t}\eta(s)ds}{1-K\int_{a}^{t}L_{f}(s)ds},

where Lf=max⁑{Lf1,Lf2}L_{f}=\max\left\{L_{f_{1}},L_{f_{2}}\right\} and Hβˆ₯β‹…βˆ₯H_{\left\|\cdot\right\|} is the Pompeiu-Housdorff functional with respect to βˆ₯β‹…βˆ₯\left\|\cdot\right\| on BC([a,∞[,ℝn).BC([a,\infty[,\mathbb{R}^{n}). ∎
