Many problems arising in modeling real world phenomena lead to mathematical models described by nonlinear integral equations in abstract spaces. The theory of nonlinear integral equations in abstract spaces, is a relatively old theory, but it is also current and has important applications in physics, engineering and biology. The concept of abstract Volterra operator (or causal operator), introduced by [47] and [46], plays an important role in physics and engineering [25, 42]. This concept arises naturally in classes of differential equations and integral equations such as ordinary differential equations, integro-differential equations, differential equations with finite or infinite delay, Volterra integral equations, neutral functional equations, and so on. Let E be a real Banach space, Lp([0, a], E) be the space of all (classes of) strongly measurable and Bochner integrable functions u : [0, a] \rightarrow E, and \scrL (E) the space of all bounded linear operators from E into itself. In this paper, we consider the Hammerstein integral equation u(t) = (\frakP u)(t) + \lambda a\int 0 K(t, s)(Qu)(s)ds, a.e. t \in [0, a], (1.1) and the Volterra – Hammerstein integral equation u(t) = (\frakP u)(t) + t\int 0 K(t, s)(Qu)(s)ds, a.e. t \in [0, a], (1.2) where \frakP ,Q : Lp([0, a], E) \rightarrow Lp([0, a], E) are continuous abstract Volterra operators, K : [0, a] \times \times [0, a] \rightarrow \scrL (E) is strongly measurable, \lambda \in \BbbR , and we provide conditions under which these equations have solutions in Lp([0, a], E). In addition, under suitable conditions we establish the existence of continuous solutions for the following nonlinear Fredholm functional-integral equation: c\bigcirc T. JABEEN, R. P. AGARWAL, V.

We recall that an operator Q : Lp([0, a], E) \rightarrow Lp([0, a], E) is called an abstract Volterra ope- rators (or a causal operator) if, for each \tau \in [0, a) and for all u, v \in Lp([0, a], E) with u(t) = v(t) for every t \in [0, \tau ], we have Qu(t) = Qv(t) for a.e. t \in [0, \tau ]. The study of differential equations involving abstract Volterra operators can be found in the monographs [10, 19, 32, 40], and also in the papers [1, 2, 4, 11, 12, 14, 24, 34, 35, 37, 38, 41, 48, 50, 51]. The existence of Lp-solutions for different classes of differential equations and integral equations were studied in [3, 6 – 9, 16, 26, 30, 31, 33, 36, 39, 43]. 2. Preliminaries. Let E be a real Banach space endowed with the norm \| \cdot \| . If A is a nonempty subset in E, then A, \mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{v} (A) and \mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{v}(A) denote the closure of A, the convex hull of A and the closure of the convex hull of A, respectively. We denote by C([0, a], E) the Banach space of continuous bounded functions from [0, a] into E endowed with the norm \| u(\cdot )\| = \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p}0\leq t\leq a \| u (t) \| . The space of all (classes of) strongly measurable functions u : [0, a] \rightarrow E such that \| u\| p := \left( a\int 0 \| u(t)\| p \right) 1/p <\infty for 1 \leq p <\infty , will be denoted by Lp([0, a], E). Then Lp([0, a], E) is a Banach space with respect to the norm \| u\| p. Also, we denote by L\infty ([0, a], E) the space of all (classes of) strongly measurable functions u(\cdot ) : [0, a] \rightarrow E which are essentially bounded on [0, a]. Then L\infty ([0, a], E) is a Banach space with respect to the norm \| u\| \infty := \mathrm{e}\mathrm{s}\mathrm{s} \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p} t\in [0,a] \| u(t)\| = \mathrm{i}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{f}\{ M \geq 0; \| u(t)\| \leq M for a.e. t \in [0, a]\} . We recall that, if 1 \leq p < q \leq \infty , then Lq([0, a], E) \subset Lp([0, a], E) and \| u\| p \leq a1/p - 1/q\| u\| q for every u(\cdot ) \in Lq([0, a], E). In the following, for a given p \geq 1, we shall denote by p\prime \geq 1 its conjugate; that is, 1 p + 1 p\prime = 1. We denote the space of all bounded linear operators acting on a Banach space E by \scrL (E). Then \scrL (E) is a Banach space with respect to the norm \| T\| := \mathrm{i}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{f}\{ M \geq 0; \| Tu\| \leq M\| u\| for all u \in E\} , T \in \scrL (E). We denote by \beta (A) the Hausdorff measure of non-compactness of a nonempty bounded set A \subset E, and it is defined by [27]: \beta (A) = \mathrm{i}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{f}\{ \varepsilon > 0; A admits a finite cover by balls of radius \leq \varepsilon \} . ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 132 T. JABEEN, R. P. AGARWAL, V. LUPULESCU, D. O’REGAN The Kuratowski measure of non-compactness of a nonempty bounded set A \subset E is defined by [29]: \alpha (A) = \mathrm{i}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{f} \Bigl\{ \delta > 0; A can be expressed as the union of a finite number of sets such that the diameter of each set does not exceed \delta \Bigr\} , where the diameter of a bounded set A \subset E is defined by \mathrm{d}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m}(A) = \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p}\{ \| x - y\| ;x, y \in A\} . Let \gamma (\cdot ) be either \alpha (\cdot ) or \beta (\cdot ). If A,B are bounded subsets of E, then (see [5, 27]): (1) \gamma (A) = 0 if and only if A is compact; (2) \gamma (A) = \gamma (A) = \gamma (\mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{v}(A)); (3) \gamma (\lambda A) = | \lambda | \gamma (A) for every \lambda \in \BbbR ; (4) \gamma (A) \leq \gamma (B) if A \subset B; (5) \gamma (A+B) \leq \gamma (A) + \gamma (B); (6) if T : E \rightarrow E is a bounded linear operator, then \gamma (TA) \leq \| T\| \gamma (A); (7) if \{ An\} n\geq 1 is a decreasing sequence of bounded closed nonempty subsets of E and \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m} n\rightarrow \infty \gamma (An) = 0, then \bigcap \infty n=1 An is a nonempty and compact subset of E [29]. Remark 2.1. In general, for any bounded set A \subset E, one has \beta (A) \leq \alpha (A) \leq 2\beta (A) and both inequalities can be strict. Also, for any bounded set A \subset E, we have that \gamma (A) \leq \mathrm{d}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m}(A) and \gamma (A) \leq 2d if \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p}x\in A \| x\| \leq d. We recall the following lemma due to Heinz [21]. Lemma 2.1. Let \{ un(\cdot );n \geq 1\} be a sequence in L1([0, a], E) such that there exists m(\cdot ) \in \in L1([0, a],\BbbR +) with \| un(t)\| \leq m(t) for each n \geq 1 and for a.e. t \in [0, a]. Then the function t \mapsto \rightarrow \psi (t) := \gamma (\{ un(t);n \geq 1\} ) is integrable on [0, a] and, for each t \in [0, a], we have (a) (Heinz [21]) \alpha \left( \left\{ t\int 0 un(s)ds;n \geq 1 \right\} \right) \leq 2 t\int 0 \psi (s)ds, (b) (Kisielewicz [28], Lemma 2.2) \beta \left( \left\{ t\int 0 un(s)ds;n \geq 1 \right\} \right) \leq t\int 0 \psi (s)ds, provided that E is a separable banach space. In the following, we let \alpha p(\cdot ) denote the Kuratowski measures of noncompactness of sets in the space Lp([0, a], E). Lemma 2.2. Let 1 \leq p <\infty and let V \subset Lp([0, a], E) be a countable set such that there exists m(\cdot ) \in L1([0, b],\BbbR +) with \| u(t)\| \leq m(t) for each u (\cdot ) \in A and for a.e. t \in [0, a]. (a) [43, 44] If \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m} h\rightarrow 0 \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p} u\in A a\int 0 \bigm\| \bigm\| u(t+ h) - u(t) \bigm\| \bigm\| p dt = 0, (2.1) then ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 EXISTENCE OF GLOBAL SOLUTIONS FOR SOME CLASSES OF INTEGRAL EQUATIONS 133 \alpha p(A) \leq 2 \left( a\int 0 [\alpha (V (t))]p dt \right) 1/p . (b) [20] (Theorem 1.2.8) The set V is relatively compact in Lp([0, a], E) if and only if (2.1) is satisfied and V (t) is relatively compact in E for a.e. t \in [0, a]. 3. A global existence results for Hammerstein integral equations. Let p and q be real numbers such that q > p \geq 1 and p \biggl( 1 - 1 q \biggr) > 1. We also assume that (H1) \frakP ,Q : Lp([0, a], E) \rightarrow Lp([0, a], E) are continuous operators such that there exist b(\cdot ), c(\cdot ) \in \in Lp([0, a],\BbbR +) and d > 0 with \| (\frakP u)(t)\| \leq b(t) and \| (Qu)(t)\| \leq c(t) + d\| u(t)\| for a.e. t \in [0, a] and for every u(\cdot ) \in Lp([0, a], E); (H2) K is a strongly measurable function from [0, a]\times [0, a] into \scrL (E) and \mathrm{e}\mathrm{s}\mathrm{s} \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p} s\in [0,a] \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| qdt \right) 1/q :=M <\infty . Lemma 3.1. If (H2) holds, then \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m} h\rightarrow 0 a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K(t+ h, s) - K(t, s)\| qdt \right) 1/q ds = 0. (3.1) Proof. For a.e. s \in [0, a], let us define the function \psi s(\cdot ) : [0, a] \rightarrow \scrL (E) by \psi s(t) = K(t, s), t \in [0, a]. From (H2) it follows that \| \psi s(\cdot )\| q \in L\infty ([0, a],\BbbR +) and \| \psi s(\cdot )\| q \leq M < \infty for a.e. s \in [0, a], so that \psi s(\cdot ) \in Lq([0, a],\scrL (E)) for a.e. s \in [0, a]. Let \{ hn\} n\geq 1 be a sequence of real positive numbers such that hn \rightarrow 0 as n \rightarrow \infty , and t+ hn \in [0, a) for every t \in [0, a) and n \geq 1. Also, for a.e. s \in [0, a], let \theta n(s) := \left( a\int 0 \| \psi s(t+ hn) - \psi s(t)\| qdt \right) 1/q = = \left( a\int 0 \| K(t+ hn, s) - K(t, s)\| qdt \right) 1/q , n \geq 1. Since \psi s(\cdot ) \in Lq([0, a],\scrL (E)) for a.e. s \in [0, a], then from the fact that translations of Lp functions (1 \leq p <\infty ) are continuous in norm, we see that \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m} n\rightarrow \infty \left( a\int 0 \| \psi s(t+ hn) - \psi s(t)\| qdt \right) 1/q = 0 for a.e. s \in [0, a], so that \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m}n\rightarrow \infty \theta n(s) = 0 for a.e. s \in [0, a]. On the other hand, since (H2) implies 0 \leq \theta n(s) \leq \| \theta n\| \infty \leq 2M for a.e. s \in [0, a] and all n \geq 1, then, by the Dominated Convergence Theorem, we have \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m}n\rightarrow \infty \int a 0 \theta n(s) ds = 0, so (3.1) is proved.

If (H2) holds, then the function \xi (\cdot ) : [0, a] \rightarrow \BbbR +, defined by \xi (t) = \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| q\prime ds \right) 1/q\prime for a.e. t \in [0, a], (3.2) belongs to Lq([0, a],\BbbR +). Moreover, \| \xi \| q \leq Ma1/q \prime and \| \xi \| p \leq Ma1/p - 1/q+1/q\prime . Proof. From (H2) and Tonelli’s theorem it is easy to see that the function \xi (\cdot ) : [0, a] \rightarrow \BbbR + is measurable on [0, a]. Now, from q > p and p \biggl( 1 - 1 q \biggr) > 1 it follows that q\prime < p < q; that is q/q\prime > 1. Then, from (H2) and the integral version of Minkowski’s inequality, we have a\int 0 \xi q(t)dt = a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| q\prime ds \right) q/q\prime dt \leq \leq \left[ a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| qdt \right) q\prime /q ds \right] q/q\prime \leq M qaq/q \prime , so that \xi (\cdot ) \in Lq([0, a],\BbbR +) and \| \xi \| q \leq Ma1/q \prime . Since p < q, \| \xi \| p \leq a1/p - 1/q\| \xi \| q \leq \leq Ma1/p - 1/q+1/q\prime . Theorem 3.1. Let conditions (H1), (H2) be satisfied. Suppose that there exist k1 \in [0, 1) and k2 > 0 such that \alpha ((\frakP A)(t)) \leq k1\alpha (A(t)) and \alpha ((QA)(t)) \leq k2\alpha (A(t)) (3.3) for t \in [0, a] and for each bounded subset A \subset Lp([0, a], E). Then there exists a positive number \lambda 0 such that for every \lambda \in R with | \lambda | < \lambda 0, the integral equation (1.1) has at least one solution in Lp([0, a], E). Proof. First, we show that each solution of (1.1) is a priori bounded in Lp([0, a], E). Indeed, since \| u(t)\| \leq b(t) + | \lambda | a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| \| (Qu)(s)\| ds, t \in [0, a], then, using the Minkowski’s inequality and the integral version of Minkowski inequality, we obtain \| u\| p \leq \left( a\int 0 | b(t)| pdt \right) 1/p + | \lambda | \left[ a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| \| (Qu)(s)\| ds \right) p dt \right] 1/p \leq \leq \| b\| p + | \lambda | a\int 0 \left[ a\int 0 [\| K(t, s)\| \| (Qu)(s)\| ]p dt \right] 1/p ds \leq \leq \| b\| p + | \lambda | a\int 0 \| (Qu)(s)\| \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| pdt \right) 1/p ds. ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 EXISTENCE OF GLOBAL SOLUTIONS FOR SOME CLASSES OF INTEGRAL EQUATIONS 135 Since q > p then, using (H1), (H2) and Hölder’s inequality, we get a\int 0 \| (Qu)(s)\| \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| pdt \right) 1/p ds \leq \leq a1/p - 1/q a\int 0 \| (Qu)(s)\| \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| qdt \right) 1/q ds \leq \leq Ma1/p - 1/q a\int 0 \| (Qu)(s)\| ds \leq Ma1/p - 1/qa1/p \prime \left( a\int 0 \| (Qu)(s)\| pds \right) 1/p \leq \leq Ma1/q \prime (\| c\| p + d\| u\| p) , so that \| u(\cdot )\| p \leq \| b(\cdot )\| p + | \lambda | Ma1/q \prime (\| c(\cdot )\| p + d\| u(\cdot )\| p) . Put \lambda 0 := \mathrm{m}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{n} \biggl\{ 1 dMa1/q\prime , 1 - k1 2k2a1/p - 1/q\| \xi \| p \biggr\} , where the function \xi (\cdot ) is defined in (3.2). Then for each | \lambda | < \lambda 0, we have \| u\| p \leq r, where r := \gamma (1 - \rho ) - 1, \rho := | \lambda | dMa1/q \prime < 1 and \gamma := \| b\| p + | \lambda | Ma1/q \prime \| c\| p, so that u bounded in Lp([0, a], E). Moreover, we remark that \| Qu\| p \leq \| c\| p + dr if \| u\| p \leq r. We also notice that \| u(t)\| \leq b(t) + | \lambda | a1/p - 1/q(\| c\| p + dr)\xi (t) for a.e. t \in [0, a]; that is, for every u \in B, we have \| u(t)\| \leq \varphi (t) for a.e. t \in [0, a], (3.4) where \varphi (t) = b(t) + | \lambda | a1/p - 1/q(\| c\| p + dr)\xi (t), t \in [0, a] and B := \{ u(\cdot ) \in Lp([0, a], E); \| u\| p \leq \leq r\} . Moreover, from Lemma 3.2 it follows that \varphi (\cdot ) \in Lp([0, a],\BbbR +), and \| \varphi \| p \leq \| b\| p + | \lambda | Ma2(1/p - 1/q)+1/q\prime (\| c\| p + dr). (3.5) Now, define the operator T : Lp([0, a], E) \rightarrow Lp([0, a], E) by (Tu) (t) = (\frakP u)(t) + \lambda a\int 0 K(t, s)(Qu)(s)ds, t \in [0, a]. (3.6) As above, we can show that \| (Tu)(t)\| \leq \varphi (t) for a.e. t \in [0, a], and \| Tu\| p \leq \| b\| p + | \lambda | Ma1/q \prime (\| c\| p + d\| u\| p) , ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 136 T. JABEEN, R. P. AGARWAL, V. LUPULESCU, D. O’REGAN for every u(\cdot ) \in Lp([0, a], E), so that T is well defined. Moreover, it is easy to see that T(B) \subset B; that is, T is an operator from B into itself. Next, we show that T is a continuous operator. For this, let \{ un(\cdot )\} n\geq 1 be a convergent sequence in Lp([0, a], E) such that un(\cdot ) \rightarrow u(\cdot ) as n\rightarrow \infty . Since \| (Tun) (t) - (Tu) (t)\| \leq \| (\frakP un) (t) - (\frakP u) (t)\| + +| \lambda | a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| \| (Qun)(s) - (Qu)(s)\| ds for every t \in [0, a], then using Minkowski’s inequality we have \| Tun - Tu\| p \leq \left( a\int 0 \| (\frakP un) (t) - (\frakP u) (t)\| pdt \right) 1/p + +| \lambda | \left[ a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| \| (Qun)(s) - (Qu)(s)\| ds \right) p dt \right] 1/p . (3.7) Now, using (H2) and the integral version of Minkowski inequality, we obtain\left[ a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| \| (Qun)(s) - (Qu)(s)\| ds \right) p dt \right] 1/p \leq \leq a\int 0 \left[ a\int 0 [\| K(t, s)\| \| (Qun)(s) - (Qu)(s)\| ]p dt \right] 1/p ds \leq \leq a\int 0 \| (Qun)(s) - (Qu)(s)\| \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| pdt \right) 1/p ds \leq \leq a1/p - 1/q a\int 0 \| (Qun)(s) - (Qu)(s)\| \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| qdt \right) 1/q ds \leq \leq Ma1/p - 1/qa1/p \prime \left( a\int 0 \| (Qun)(s) - (Qu)(s)\| pds \right) 1/p = =Ma1/q \prime \| Qun - Qu\| p, so that (3.7) become \| Tun - Tu\| p \leq \| \frakP un - \frakP u\| p +M | \lambda | a1/q\prime \| Qun - Qu\| p. Since \frakP and Q are continuous operators, from the above inequality it follows that \| Tun - Tu\| p \rightarrow 0 as n\rightarrow \infty , and so T is a continuous operator. In the next step, we will show that ISSN 1027-3190.

(3.8) If t \in [0, a] and t+ h \in [0, a], then for every u(\cdot ) \in B we have\bigm\| \bigm\| (Tu)(t+ h) - (Tu)(t) \bigm\| \bigm\| \leq \bigm\| \bigm\| (Pu)(t+ h) - (Pu)(t) \bigm\| \bigm\| + +| \lambda | a\int 0 \bigm\| \bigm\| K(t+ h, s) - K(t, s) \bigm\| \bigm\| \| (Qu)(s)\| ds. Using Minkowski’s inequality, we obtain J := \left( a\int 0 \| (Tu)(t+ h) - (Tu)(t)\| pdt \right) 1/p \leq \left( a\int 0 \| (\frakP u)(t+ h) - (\frakP u)(t)\| pdt \right) 1/p + +| \lambda | \left[ a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K(t+ h, s) - K(t, s)\| \| (Qu)(s)\| ds \right) p dt \right] 1/p = J1 + J2. (3.9) Since \frakP u \in Lp([0, a], E), then from the fact that translations of Lp-functions (1 \leq p < \infty ) are continuous in norm, we see that J1 \rightarrow 0 as h\rightarrow 0. Next, using the integral version of Minkowski inequality, we get J2 \leq a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 [\| K(t+ h, s) - K(t, s)\| \| (Qu)(s)\| ]p dt \right) 1/p ds = = a\int 0 \| (Qu)(s)\| \left( a\int 0 \| K(t+ h, s) - K(t, s)\| pdt \right) 1/p ds \leq \leq a1/p - 1/q a\int 0 \| (Qu)(s)\| \left( a\int 0 \| K(t+ h, s) - K(t, s)\| qdt \right) 1/q ds \leq \leq a1/p - 1/q \left( a\int 0 \| (Qu)(s)\| q\prime ds \right) 1/q\prime \left[ a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K(t+ h, s) - K(t, s)\| qdt \right) ds \right] 1/q \leq \leq a1/q \prime - 1/q\| Qu\| p \left[ a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K(t+ h, s) - K(t, s)\| qdt \right) ds \right] 1/q , so that Jq 2 \leq aq/q \prime - 1 (\| c\| p + dr)q a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K(t+ h, s) - K(t, s)\| qdt \right) ds.

Therefore, from (3.9) it follows that Jp = a\int 0 \| (Tu)(t+ h) - (Tu)(t)\| pdt\rightarrow 0 as h\rightarrow 0, uniformly with respect to u \in B, so that (3.8) is proved. Next, let A be a countable subset of B such that A \subset \mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}((TA) \cup \{ 0\} ). We will use the compactness criteria from Lemma 2.2 to show that A is a relatively compact set in Lp([0, a], E). First, from (3.8) we have \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m} h\rightarrow 0 \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p} u\in A a\int 0 \| u(t+ h) - u(t)\| p dt = 0. (3.10) Since A is a bounded set in Lp([0, a], E) then, from (3.10) and Lemma 2.2, we have \alpha p(A) \leq 2 \left( a\int 0 [\alpha (A(t))]p dt \right) 1/p . (3.11) On the other hand, using the properties of the Kuratowski measures of noncompactness and (3.3), we have \alpha (A(t)) \leq \alpha (\mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}((TA) (t) \cup \{ 0\} )) = \alpha ((TA) (t)) \leq \leq \alpha \left( (\frakP A)(t) + \lambda a\int 0 K(t, s)(QA)(s)ds \right) \leq \leq \alpha ((\frakP A)(t)) + | \lambda | \alpha \left( a\int 0 K(t, s)(QA)(s)ds \right) \leq \leq k1\alpha (A(t)) + | \lambda | \alpha \left( a\int 0 K(t, s)(QA)(s)ds \right) . (3.12) Next, for each u(\cdot ) \in A, the function s \mapsto \rightarrow \| K(t, s)(Qu)(s)\| is measurable on [0, t] for a.e. t \in [0, a]. From (3.4) it follows that\bigm\| \bigm\| K(t, s)(Qu)(s) \bigm\| \bigm\| \leq \| K(t, s)\| \bigl( c(s) + d\| u(t)\| \bigr) \leq \| K(t, s)\| (c(s) + d\varphi (t)) , and consequently a\int 0 \| K(t, s)(Qu)(s)\| ds \leq \left( a\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| q\prime ds \right) 1/q\prime \left( a\int 0 (c(s) + d\varphi (t))q ds \right) 1/q \leq \leq a1/p - 1/q \bigl( \| c\| p + d\| \varphi \| p \bigr) \xi (t), so that s \mapsto \rightarrow \bigm\| \bigm\| K(t, s)(Qu)(s) \bigm\| \bigm\| belong to L1([0, a],\BbbR +) for a.e. t \in [0, a]. Hence, from Lemma 3.1, Hölder’s inequality and Lemma 3.2, we have ISSN 1027-3190.

(3.14) Since k1 + 2| \lambda | k2a1/p - 1/q\| \xi \| p < 1, from the last inequality we obtain\left( a\int 0 [\alpha ((A)(s))]p ds \right) 1/p = 0 and thus, from (3.11) it follows that \alpha p(A) = 0; that is, A is a relatively compact set in Lp([0, a], E). Summarizing, we have shown that T : B \rightarrow B is a continuous operator with the property that for a countable subset A of B such that A \subset \mathrm{c}\mathrm{o} \bigl( (TA)\cup \{ 0\} \bigr) we have that A is relatively compact. Since B is a closed and convex set in Lp([0, a], E) then, by the Mönch fixed point theorem, it follows that there exists u(\cdot ) \in B such that u = Tu; that is, the integral equation (1.1) has a least one solution u(\cdot ) \in B. Theorem 3.1 is proved. Remark 3.1. Suppose that \lambda = 1 and the conditions (H1), (H2) are satisfied. If (3.3) holds for some k1, k2 \geq 0 with k1 +2k2a 1/p - 1/q\| \xi \| p < 1, then from the above proof it is easy to see that the integral equation (1.1) has at least one solution in Lp([0, a], E). Theorem 3.2. Let conditions (H1), (H2) be satisfied and suppose that (3.3) holds for some k1, k2 \geq 0 with k1+2k2a 1/p - 1/q\| \xi \| p < 1. Then the integral equation (1.2) has at least one solution in Lp([0, a], E). ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 140 T. JABEEN, R. P. AGARWAL, V. LUPULESCU, D. O’REGAN Proof. If we put K\ast (t, s) := \left\{ K(t, s) if 0 \leq s \leq t \leq a, 0 otherwise, and \lambda = 1, then the integral equation (1.2) is equivalent to u(t) = (\frakP u)(t) + a\int 0 K\ast (t, s)(Qu)(s)ds a.e. t \in [0, a]. (3.15) Since K satisfies (H2), it follows that K\ast is a strongly measurable function from [0, a]\times [0, a] into \scrL (E), \mathrm{e}\mathrm{s}\mathrm{s} \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p} s\in [0,a] \left( a\int 0 \| K\ast (t, s)\| qdt \right) 1/q :=M <\infty , and \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m} h\rightarrow 0 a\int 0 \left( a\int 0 \| K\ast (t+ h, s) - K\ast (t, s)\| qdt \right) 1/q ds = 0. Also, it is easy to check that the function \xi \ast : [0, a] \rightarrow \BbbR +, defined by \xi \ast (t) = \left( a\int 0 \| K\ast (t, s)\| q\prime ds \right) 1/q\prime for a.e. t \in [0, a], belongs to Lq([0, a],\BbbR +), \| \xi \ast \| q \leq Ma1/q \prime and \| \xi \ast \| p \leq Ma1/p - 1/q+1/q\prime . Then, by Remark 3.1, it follows that the integral equation (3.15) has at least one solution in Lp([0, a], E), so that the integral equation (1.2) has at least one solution in Lp([0, a], E). Theorem 3.2 is proved. Remark 3.2. Suppose that there exist m0 > 0, k2 > 0 such that \alpha ((\frakP A)(t)) \leq m0 \left( t\int 0 [\alpha (A(s))]p ds \right) 1/p and \alpha ((QA)(t)) \leq k2\alpha (A(t)) (3.16) for t \in [0, a] and for each bounded subset A \subset Lp([0, a], E). We notice that if there exists m1 > 0 such that \alpha ((\frakP A)(t)) \leq m1 t\int 0 \alpha (A(s))ds, t \in [0, a], then \alpha ((\frakP A)(t)) \leq m1a 1/p\prime \left( t\int 0 [\alpha (A(s))]p ds \right) 1/p , so that \frakP satisfies (3.16) with m0 := m1a 1/p\prime . Now, let A be a countable subset of B such that A \subset \mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}((TA) \cup \{ 0\} ), where T is defined by (3.6) and B := \{ u \in Lp([0, a], E); \| u\| p \leq r\} . Then (3.12) becomes ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 EXISTENCE OF GLOBAL SOLUTIONS FOR SOME CLASSES OF INTEGRAL EQUATIONS 141 \alpha (A(t)) \leq m0 \left( t\int 0 [\alpha (A(s))]p ds \right) 1/p + | \lambda | \alpha \left( a\int 0 K(t, s)(QA)(s)ds \right) (3.17) for all t \in [0, a]. Then, by (3.13), (3.14) and (3.17), we obtain\left( a\int 0 [\alpha ((A)(s))]p ds \right) 1/p \leq m0 \left( a\int 0 [\alpha ((A)(s))]p ds \right) 1/p + +2k2| \lambda | a1/p - 1/q\| \xi \| p \left( a\int 0 [\alpha ((A)(s))]p ds \right) 1/p \leq \leq (m0 + 2| \lambda | k2a1/p - 1/q\| \xi \| p) \left( a\int 0 [\alpha ((A)(s))]p ds \right) 1/p . If m0 + 2| \lambda | k2a1/p - 1/q\| \xi \| p < 1, then the last inequality implies\left( a\int 0 [\alpha ((A)(s))]p ds \right) 1/p = 0. Therefore, under conditions (H1), (H2) the result of Theorem 3.1 remains true if (3.16) holds for some m0 > 0. Consequently, the result of Theorem 3.2 remains also true if (3.16) holds for some m0 > 0 with m0 + 2k2a 1/p - 1/q\| \xi \| p < 1. 4. Neutral functional differential equation. The aim of this section is to apply Theorem 3.2 to a class of neutral functional differential equations involving abstract Volterra equations. Some interesting results about neutral differential equations can be found in [17, 18, 22, 23]. In the following, we consider the neutral functional differential equation d dt [u(t) - (\frakC u)(t)] = (Qu)(t) for a.e. t \in [0, a], (4.1) together the initial conditions u(0) = u0, where \frakC ,Q : Lp([0, a], E) \rightarrow Lp([0, a], E) are continuous causal operators such that (\frakC u)(0) = \theta for every u(\cdot ) \in Lp([0, a], E). A function u(\cdot ) \in Lp([0, a], E) is said to be a solution of (4.1) with initial condition u(0) = u0 if t \mapsto \rightarrow u(t) - (\frakC u)(t) is an absolutely continuous function and satisfies (4.1) for a.e. t \in [0, a]. Note that u(\cdot ) itself may not be differentiable on the interval of existence. It is easy to see that if u(\cdot ) is a solution of equation (4.1), then it satisfies the integral equation u(t) = (\frakP u)(t) + t\int 0 (Qu)(s) ds for a.e. t \in [0, a], (4.2) where (\frakP u)(t) := u0 + (\frakC u)(t), t \in [0, a]. Conversely, if u(\cdot ) \in Lp([0, a], E) satisfies the integral equation (4.2), then u(\cdot ) is a solution of equation (4.1) with initial value u(0) = u0. Let condition (H1) be satisfied and suppose that there exists k1 \in [0, 1) and k2 > 0 such that \frakC and Q satisfy (3.3). ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 142 T. JABEEN, R. P. AGARWAL, V. LUPULESCU, D. O’REGAN Taking K(t, s) = I for all (t, s) \in \Delta := \{ (t, s); 0 \leq s \leq t \leq a\} , by Theorem 3.2 it follows that the integral equation (4.2) has at least one solution in Lp([0, a], E). A similar result was obtained by Corduneanu [10] (Section 6.4) in the finite dimensional case. For instance, the above result can be applied to the neutral functional differential equation d dt \left[ u(t) - t\int 0 K(t, s)u(s)ds \right] = g(t, u(t)) for a.e. t \in [0, a], (4.3) with the initial conditions u(0) = u0, where K : \Delta \rightarrow \scrL (E) satisfies (H2) and g : [0, a]\times E \rightarrow E is a Carathéodory function; that is, (a) g(t, \cdot ) \in C(E,E) for each t \in [0, a]; (b) g(\cdot , u) is strongly measurable for each u \in E; (c) There exist mg(\cdot ) \in Lp([0, a],\BbbR +) and d \geq 0 such that \| g(t, u)\| \leq mg(t) + d\| u\| for every t \in [0, a] and u \in E. Also, we assume that the following condition holds: (H3) t \mapsto \rightarrow u(t) - \int t 0 K(t, s)u(s) ds is an absolutely continuous function on [0, a]. Now, it is easy to see that if u(\cdot ) is a solution of equation (4.3), then it satisfies the following integral equation: u(t) = (\frakP u)(t) + t\int 0 (Qu)(s) ds for a.e. t \in [0, a], (4.4) where (\frakP u)(t) := u0 + t\int 0 K(t, s)u(s)ds, t \in [0, a], is a Volterra operator and (Qu)(t) := g(t, u(t)), t \in [0, a], is the Nemitskii operator. Conversely, if u(\cdot ) \in Lp([0, a], E) satisfies the integral equation (4.4), then u (\cdot ) is a solution of equation (4.3) with initial value u(0) = u0. Theorem 4.1. Suppose that K : \Delta \rightarrow \scrL (E) satisfies (H2) and g(\cdot , \cdot ) : [0, a] \times E \rightarrow E is a Carathéodory function such that there exists k2 > 0 such that Ma1/p \prime +1/q\prime + 2k2a 1/p - 1/q\| \xi \| p < 1 and \alpha (g(t, A)) \leq k2\alpha (A) (4.5) for t \in [0, a] and for each bounded subset A \subset E. If (H3) hold, then the neutral functional differential equation (4.3) has at least one solution in Lp([0, a], E) satisfying the initial condition u(0) = u0. ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 EXISTENCE OF GLOBAL SOLUTIONS FOR SOME CLASSES OF INTEGRAL EQUATIONS 143 Proof. From (H2) and Theorem 9.5.1 in [15] it follows that \frakP is a continuous operator from Lp([0, a], E) into itself. If V is a bounded countable set in Lp([0, a], E), then we have \alpha ((\frakP V )(t)) \leq \alpha \left( t\int 0 K(t, s)V (s)ds \right) \leq t\int 0 \alpha (K(t, s)V (s)) ds \leq \leq t\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| \alpha (V (s)) ds \leq \leq \left( t\int 0 \| K(t, s)\| qds \right) 1/q \left( t\int 0 [\alpha (V (s))]q \prime ds \right) 1/q\prime \leq \leq Ma1/q \prime - 1/p \left( t\int 0 [\alpha (V (s))]p ds \right) 1/p , so that \frakP satisfies (3.8). Also, by (c) it follows that the Nemitskii operator Q is a continuous operator from Lp([0, a], E) into itself. Next, using (4.5), for any bounded and countable set in Lp([0, a], E) we have \alpha ((QV )(t)) = \alpha (g(t, V (t))) \leq k2\alpha \bigl( V (t) \bigr) for t \in [0, a], so that Q also satisfies (3.3). Consequently, (H1), (H2) and (3.3) are satisfied so that, by Remark 3.2, the neutral functional differential equation (4.3) has at least one solution in Lp([0, a], E) satisfying the initial condition u(0) = u0. Theorem 4.1 is proved 5. A global existence result for nonlinear Fredholm functional integral equations. In this section we obtain a result on the global existence of solutions for a nonlinear Fredholm functional integral equation involving an abstract Volterra operator. A similar result was obtained by Warga [49] ([Theorem II.5.1]) in the finite dimensional case. If X, Y are given real separable Banach spaces, we denote by C(Y,X) the Banach space of all continuous and bounded functions from Y into X endowed with the norm \| f(\cdot )\| C(Y,X) = \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p}y\in Y \| f(y)\| . We shall identify two functions g(\cdot , \cdot ), h(\cdot , \cdot ) : [0, a]\times Y \rightarrow X if g(t, \cdot ) = h(t, \cdot ) a.e. on[0, a], and we will denote by \Omega := \Omega ([0, a]\times \times Y,X) the vector space of (equivalence classes of) all functions g(\cdot , \cdot ) : [0, a] \times Y \rightarrow X such that: (c1) g(t, \cdot ) \in C(Y,X) for each t \in [0, a]; (c2) g(\cdot , y) is strongly measurable for each y \in Y ; (c3) there exists a function mg(\cdot ) \in Lp([0, a],\BbbR +) such that \| g(t, \cdot )\| C(Y,X) \leq mg(t) for every t \in [0, a]. An element of \Omega is called a Carathéodory function. Remark 5.1. It is easy to see that the function t \mapsto \rightarrow \| g(t, \cdot )\| C(Y,X) is Lebesgue integrable on [0, a] for every g(\cdot , \cdot ) \in \Omega . Moreover, the function g \mapsto \rightarrow \| g\| \Omega : \Omega \rightarrow \BbbR +, given by \| g\| \Omega := a\int 0 \| g(t, \cdot )\| C(Y,X) dt ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 144 T. JABEEN, R. P. AGARWAL, V. LUPULESCU, D. O’REGAN is a norm on \Omega . Also, for every g(\cdot , \cdot ) \in \Omega and for every strongly measurable functions y(\cdot ) : [0, a] \rightarrow Y, the function t \mapsto \rightarrow g(t, y(t)) is Bochner integrable on [0, a]. In the following, if F (\cdot ) \in C([0, a],\Omega ) is a given function, then we will write F (t, s, y) instead of F (t)(s, y) for (s, y) \in [0, a]\times Y. Consider the nonlinear Fredholm functional-integral equation u(t) = u0(t) + a\int 0 F (t, s, (Qu)(s))ds, t \in [0, a], (5.1) where F (\cdot ) \in C([0, a],\Omega ), Q : C([0, a], X) \rightarrow L\infty ([0, a], Y ), and u0(\cdot ) \in C([0, a], X) are assumed to satisfy the following assumptions: (A1) Q : C([0, a], X) \rightarrow L\infty ([0, a], Y ) is continuous and there exists b > 0 and 0 < c < 1 such that \| Qu\| \infty \leq b(1 + \| u(\cdot )\| )c, u(\cdot ) \in C([0, a], X); (A2) there exist 0 < d < 1 and an integrable function h(\cdot , \cdot ) : [0, a]\times [0, a] \rightarrow \BbbR + such that \gamma := \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p} 0\leq t\leq a a\int 0 h(t, s)ds <\infty and \| F (t, s, y)\| \leq h(t, s)(1 + \| y\| )d for t, s \in [0, a] and y \in Y ; (A3) there exist k, k0 > 0 and \psi (\cdot ) \in L1([0, a],\BbbR +) such that \beta (F (t, s, B)) \leq k\beta (B) for all t, s \in [0, a] and any bounded set B \subset Y, and \beta ((QV )(t)) \leq k0\beta \bigl( V (t) \bigr) for every t \in [0, a] and every bounded set V \subset C([0, a], X). Theorem 5.1. If assumptions (A1) – (A3) are satisfied, u0(\cdot ) \in C([0, a], X) and kk0 < 1, then the integral equation (5.1) has at least one solution in C([0, a], X). Proof. Since F (t, \cdot , \cdot ) \in \Omega and the function s \mapsto \rightarrow (Qu)(s) is strongly measurable on [0, a] for each u(\cdot ) \in C([0, a], X), by Remark 5.1 it follows that the function s \mapsto \rightarrow F (t, s, (Qu)(s)) is Bochner integrable on [0, a] for every t \in [0, a], so that the operator (Ku)(t) := u0(t) + a\int 0 F (t, s, (Qu)(s))ds, t \in [0, a], is well defined for every u(\cdot ) \in C([0, a], X). Since 0 < c, d < 1, it is easy to check that, for a given r \geq \mathrm{m}\mathrm{a}\mathrm{x}\{ 1, \gamma (1 + 2b)c\} , we have \gamma \bigl[ 1 + b(1 + r)d \bigr] c \leq r0. Let Wr := \bigl\{ u(\cdot ) \in C([0, a], X); \| u(\cdot )\| \leq r \bigr\} , where r := r + \| u0(\cdot )\| . First, we remark that, for every u(\cdot ) \in Wr, we obtain ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 EXISTENCE OF GLOBAL SOLUTIONS FOR SOME CLASSES OF INTEGRAL EQUATIONS 145 \| (Qu)(s)\| \leq b(1 + \| u(s)\| )c \leq r0 := b(1 + r)c for a.e. s \in [0, a], so that QWr \subset \{ y(\cdot ) \in L\infty ([0, a], Y ); \| y(\cdot )\| \leq r0\} . From (A1) and (A2) it follows that, for each u(\cdot ) \in Wr, we get \| (Ku)(t)\| \leq \| u0(\cdot )\| + a\int 0 \| F (t, s, (Qu)(s))\| ds \leq \leq \| u0(\cdot )\| + a\int 0 h(t, s)(1 + \| (Qu)(s)\| )dds \leq \leq \| u0(\cdot )\| + (1 + \| Qu\| \infty )d \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p} 0\leq t\leq a a\int 0 h(t, s)ds \leq \leq \| u0(\cdot )\| + \gamma \Bigl[ 1 + b(1 + r)d \Bigr] c \leq \| u0(\cdot )\| + r = r, so that Ku \in Wr for every u(\cdot ) \in Wr. Since Wr is bounded and KWr \subset Wr, KWr is also bounded. Now, we show that K is a continuous operator on Wr. For this, let \{ un(\cdot )\} n\geq 1 be a sequence in Wr converging to some u(\cdot ) \in Wr. Then by (A1) we have that \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m}n\rightarrow \infty (Qun)(s) = (Qu)(s) for a.e. s \in [0, a]. Also, since F (t, \cdot , \cdot ) \in \Omega , \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m} n\rightarrow \infty F (t, s, (Qun)(s)) = F (t, s, (Qu)(s)) and \bigm\| \bigm\| F (t, s, (Qun)(s))\bigm\| \bigm\| \leq \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p} \| y\| \leq r0 \| F (t, s, y\| \leq (1 + r0) dh(t, s) for each t \in [0, a] and for a.e. s \in [0, a], by the Lebesgue dominated convergence theorem we obtain \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m} n\rightarrow \infty a\int 0 F (t, s, (Qun)(s)ds = a\int 0 F (t, s, (Qu)(s)ds for each t \in [0, a]. Consequently, K is a continuous operator. Next, for every t, s \in [0, a] and every u(\cdot ) \in Wr, we have \bigm\| \bigm\| (Ku)(t) - (Ku)(s) \bigm\| \bigm\| \leq a\int 0 \| F (t, \tau , (Qu)(\tau )) - F (s, \tau , (Qu)(\tau ))\| d\tau \leq \leq a\int 0 \mathrm{s}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{p} y\in Y \bigm\| \bigm\| F (t, \tau , y) - F (s, \tau , y) \bigm\| \bigm\| d\tau = = a\int 0 \bigm\| \bigm\| F (t, \tau , \cdot ) - F (s, \tau , \cdot ) \bigm\| \bigm\| C(Y,X) d\tau = \bigm\| \bigm\| F (t, \cdot , \cdot ) - F (s, \cdot , \cdot ) \bigm\| \bigm\| \Omega . Since F (\cdot ) \in C([0, a],\Omega ), for every \varepsilon > 0, there exists \delta = \delta (\varepsilon ) > 0 such that ISSN 1027-3190. Укр. мат. журн., 2018, т. 70, № 1 146 T. JABEEN, R. P.

O’REGAN\bigm\| \bigm\| (Ku)(t) - (Ku)(s) \bigm\| \bigm\| \leq \bigm\| \bigm\| F (t, \cdot , \cdot ) - F (s, \cdot , \cdot ) \bigm\| \bigm\| \Omega \leq \varepsilon for all t, s \in [0, a] with | t - s| \leq \delta and for every u(\cdot ) \in Wr, so that KWr is equicontinuous. Next, put W0 :=Wr and define Wn+1 = \mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{v}(KWn), n = 0, 1, 2, . . . . Now, from KW0 \subset W0, it follows that W1 = \mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{v}(KW0) \subset \mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{v}(W0) =W0, and thus, W1 \subset C([0, a], X) is bounded, closed, convex and equicontinuous. By Mathematical induction it is easy to see that Wn+1 \subset Wn and Wn \subset C([0, a], X) are bounded, closed, convex and equicontinuous for n = 0, 1, 2, . . . . Next, since C([0, a], X) is separable, then for each n = = 0, 1, 2, . . . , there exists a countable set V n = \{ vnk ; k = 1, 2, . . .\} \subset C([0, a], X) such that V n =Wn. Then, by Lemma 3.1, the properties of the measure of noncompactness and (A3), we have \beta (Wn+1(t)) = \beta \bigl( \mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{v}((KWn)(t)) \bigr) = \beta \bigl( (KWn)(t) \bigr) = \beta \bigl( (KV n)(t) \bigr) \leq \leq \beta \left( a\int 0 F (t, s, (QV n)(s))ds \right) \leq \leq k a\int 0 \beta \bigl( (QV n)(s) \bigr) ds \leq kk0 a\int 0 \beta \bigl( (V n(s) \bigr) ds, that is, \beta \bigl( Wn+1(t) \bigr) \leq kk0 a\int 0 \beta (Wn(s)) ds, t \in [0, b]. From a finite number of steps, we obtain \beta (Wn(t)) \leq (kk0) n a\int 0 \beta (W0(s)) ds, t \in [0, b], n \geq 1. From Wn+1 \subset Wn, n = 0, 1, 2, . . . , and property (4) of the measure of noncompactness, it follows that, for each t \in [0, b], the sequence \{ \beta (Wn(t))\} n\geq 0 is bounded and decreasing. Hence, there exists h(t) := \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m}n\rightarrow \infty \beta (Wn(t)) , t \in [0, b]. Taking n\rightarrow \infty on both sides of the last inequality we get h(t) = \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m} n\rightarrow \infty \beta (Wn(t)) \leq \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m} n\rightarrow \infty (kk0) n a\int 0 \beta (W0(s)) ds = 0, t \in [0, b], and thus, h(t) = \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m}n\rightarrow \infty \beta (Wn(t)) = 0, t \in [0, b]. Since Wn, n = 0, 1, . . . , are bounded and equicontiuous, it follows that \mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{m}n\rightarrow \infty \beta c (Wn) = 0. By property (7) of the measure of noncompact- ness, it follows that W := \bigcap \infty n=0 Wn is a compact set of C([0, a], X) and KW \subset W. Consequently, by the Schauder fixed point theorem, it follows that the operator K has at least one fixed point u(\cdot ) \in W, which is a solution of (5.1). ISSN 1027-3190.

Jabeen, T. Lupulescu, V. O’Regan, D. Агарвал, Р. П. Ябін, Т. Лупулеску, В. О&#039;Реган, Д. We study the existence of $L^p$ -solutions for a class of Hammerstein integral equations and neutral functional differential equations involving abstract Volterra operators. Using compactness-type conditions, we establish the global existence of solutions. In addition, a global existence result for a class of nonlinear Fredholm functional integral equations involving abstract Volterra equations is given.
