We consider, in an abstract setting, an instance of the Coleman-Gurtin model for heat conduction with memory, that is, the Volterra integro-differential equation ${\partial _t}u(t) - \beta \Delta u(t) ...

Recall that the solution of the initial-value problem \(y^\prime=ky\text{,}\) \(y(0)=A\text{,}\) is given by \(\ds y=Ae^{kx}\text{.}\) Solve the following problems ...
