Abstract

In this paper, we study a class of second-order neutral impulsive stochastic evolution equations with infinite delay (SNISEEIs in short), in which the initial value belongs to the abstract spaceBh. Sufficient conditions for the existence of the mild solutions for

SNISEEIs are derived by means of the Krasnoselskii-Schaefer fixed point theorem. Two examples are given to illustrate the obtained results.

Keywords: second-order stochastic evolution equation; impulsive effect; cosine family; fixed point theorem

1 Introduction

In this paper, we consider the second-order neutral impulsive stochastic evolution equa-tions with infinite delay (SNISEEIs in short) of the following form:

dx(t) –g(t,xt)=Ax(t) +f(t,xt)dt+σ(t,xt) dw(t), tJ:= [,T], ()

x=φBh, ()

x() =ψH, ()

x(tk) =Ik(xtk), x

(tk) =˜Ik(xt

k), k= , , . . . ,m. ()

Here, the statex(·) takes values in a separable real Hilbert spaceH with inner product (·,·) and norm · , whereA:D(A)⊂HHis the infinitesimal generator of a strongly continuous cosine familyC(t) onH. The historyxt : (–∞, ]→H,xt(θ) =x(t+θ), for

t≥, belongs to the phase spaceBh. Now, we present the abstract phase spaceBh. Assume

thath: (–∞, ]→(,∞) is a continuous function withl=–∞h(t) dt<∞. For anya> , define

Bh=

then (BhBh) is a Banach space []. LetKbe another separable Hilbert space with inner

product (·,·)Kand norm · K. Suppose{w(t) :t≥}is a givenK-valued Wiener process

with a finite trace nuclear covariance operatorQ≥ defined on a complete probability space (,F,P) equipped with a normal filtration{Ft}t≥, which is generated by the Wiener

processw. We are also employing the same notation · for the operator normL(K;H), whereL(K;H) denotes the space of all bounded linear operators fromKintoH. Assume thatg,f :J×BhH(i= , ) andσ:J×BhLQ(K,H) are appropriate mappings

spec-ified later. Here,LQ(K,H) denotes the space of allQ-Hilbert-Schmidt operators fromK

intoH, which will be defined in the next section. The initial dataφ={φ(t) : –∞<t≤}is anF-adapted,Bh-valued stochastic process independent of the Wiener processwwith

finite second moment.ψis anF-adapted,H-valued random variable independent of the Wiener processwwith finite second moment.Ikand˜Ik:BhHare appropriate

func-tions. Moreover, let  =t<t<· · ·<tm<tm+=T, be given time points and the symbol ξ(t) represents the jump of the functionξatt, which is defined byξ(t) =ξ(t+) –ξ(t–). Stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs in short) with delay have attracted great interest due to their applications in describing many sophisticated dynamical systems in physical, biological, medical and social sciences. One can see [–] and the references therein for details. Moreover, to describe the systems involving derivatives with delay, Hale and Lunel [] introduced the deterministic neutral functional differential equations, which are of great interest in theoretical and practical applications. Taking the environ-mental disturbances into account, Kolmanovskii and Myshkis [] introduced the neutral stochastic functional differential equations (NSFDEs in short) and gave its applications in chemical engineering and aero elasticity. The investigation of qualitative properties such as existence, uniqueness and stability for NSFDEs has received much attention. One can see [, , –] and the references therein. In addition, impulsive effects exist in many evo-lution processes in which states are changed abruptly at certain moments of time, involved in such fields as medicine and biology, economics, bioengineering, chemical technology

etc.(see [, ] and the references therein).

On the other hand, the study of abstract deterministic second-order evolutions equa-tions governed by the generator of a strongly continuous cosine family was initiated by [] and subsequently studied by [, ]. The second-order stochastic differential equa-tions are the right model in continuous time to account for integrated processes that can be made stationary. For instance, it is useful for engineers to model mechanical vibra-tions or charge on a capacitor or condenser subjected to white noise excitation through a second-order stochastic differential equations. There are some interesting works that have been done on the second-order stochastic differential equations. For example, McKibben [] investigated the second-order damped functional stochastic evolution equations. For further work on this topic, one can see Mahmudov and McKibben []. Moreover, McKibben [] established the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions for a class of second-order neutral stochastic evolution equations with finite delay. Balasubramaniam and Muthukumar [] gave the sufficient conditions for the approximate controllability of the second-order neutral stochastic evolution equations with infinite delay. For more details of second-order stochastic differential equations, we refer the reader to Da Prato [] and the references therein.

solutions for SNISEEIs by means of the Krasnoselskii-Schaefer fixed point theorem. Two types of stochastic nonlinear wave equations with infinite delay and impulsive effects are provided to illustrate the obtained results.

The paper is organized as follows. In Section , we introduce some preliminaries. In Section , we prove the existence of the mild solutions for SNISEEIs by means of the Krasnoselskii-Schaefer fixed point theorem. In Section , we study the continuous de-pendence of solutions on the initial values. Two examples are provided in the last section to illustrate the theory.

2 Preliminaries

In this section, we mention some preliminaries needed to establish our results. For details as regards this section, the reader may refer to Da Prato and Zabczyk [], Fattorini [] and the references therein.

Let (,F,P;F) (F={Ft}t≥) be a complete filtered probability space satisfying thatF contains allP-null sets ofF. AnH-valued random variable is anF-measurable function

x(t) :Hand the collection of random variablesS={x(t,ω) :H|tJ}is called a stochastic process. Generally, we just writex(t) instead ofx(t,ω) andx(t) :JHin the space ofS. Let{ei}∞i=be a complete orthonormal basis ofK. Suppose that{w(t) :t≥}is a cylindricalK-valued Wiener process with a finite trace nuclear covariance operatorQ≥, denoteTr(Q) =∞i=λi=λ<∞, which satisfiesQei=λiei, witheibeing a CONS of

eigen-vectors, and then, w.r.t. this spectral representation ofQthe drivingQ-Wiener process can be represented asw(t) =∞i=λiwi(t)ei, where{wi(t)}∞i=are mutually independent one-dimensional standard Wiener processes. We assume thatFt=σ{w(s) : ≤st}, which

is aσ-algebra generated bywandFT=F. LetψL(K,H) and define

ψQ=TrψQψ∗= ∞

n=

λnψen.

IfψQ<∞, thenψis called aQ-Hilbert-Schmidt operator. LetLQ(K,H) denote the space

of allQ-Hilbert-Schmidt operatorsψ:KH. The completionLQ(K,H) ofL(K,H) with

respect to the topology induced by the norm · QwithψQ= (ψ,ψ) is a Hilbert space

with the above norm topology.

The collection of all strongly measurable, square-integrable, H-valued random vari-ables, denoted by L(,F,P;H)≡ L(,H), is a Banach space equipped with norm

x(·)L = (Ex(·,ω)H)/, where the expectationE is defined by Ex=

x(ω) dP. Let C(J,L(,H)) be the Banach space of all continuous maps fromJ intoL(,H) satisfy-ing the conditionsuptJEx(t)<. An important subspace is given byL

(,H) ={f

L(,H) :f isF-measurable}.

We say that a functionx: [ν,τ]→His a normalized piecewise continuous function on [ν,τ] ifxis piecewise continuous and left continuous on (ν,τ]. We denote byPC([ν,τ];H) the space formed by the normalized piecewise continuous stochastic processes from{x(t) :

t∈[ν,τ]}. In particular, we introduce the spacePC formed by allH-valued stochastic processes{x(t) :t∈[,T]}such thatxis continuous att=tk,x(tk) =x(tk) andx(t+k) exists, for allk= , . . . ,m. In the sequel, we always assume thatPC is endowed with the norm

xPC= (supsJEx(s))/. It is clear that (PC, ·

(4)

To simplify the notations, we put t = , tn+ = T. For xPC, we denote xk˜ ∈

C([tk,tk+];L(,H)),k= , , . . . ,n, given by

˜

xk(t) =

⎧ ⎨ ⎩

x(t), fort∈(tk,tk+],

x(t+

k), fort=tk.

()

Moreover, forBPC, we denote byBk,k= , , . . . ,n, the setBk={˜xk:xB}.

Lemma  A set BPCis relatively compact inPC,if and only if,the setBkis relatively compact in C([tk,tk+];L(,H)),for every k= , , . . . ,m.

Now, we consider the space

Bb=

x: (–∞,T]→H,xkPC(Jk,H) and there existxtkandxtk+

withx(tk) =x

tk,x=ϕBh,k= , , , . . . ,m

,

wherexkis the restriction ofxtoJk= (tk,tk+]. Set · bbe a semi-norm inBbdefined by

xb=xBh+ sup

≤sT

Ex(s)/, xBb.

Then we have the following useful lemma appearing in [].

Lemma  Assume that xBb,then for tJ,xtBh.Moreover,we have lEx(t)/≤ xtBhl sup

≤st

Ex(s)/+xBh,

where l=–∞h(s) ds<∞.

Now, let us recall some facts about cosine families of operatorsC(t) andS(t) appeared in [, ].

Definition  A one parameter family{C(t) :t∈R} ⊂L(H,H) satisfying that (i) C() =I,

(ii) C(t)xis continuous intonR, for allxH, (iii) C(t+s) +C(ts) = C(t)C(s), for allt,s∈R,

is called a strongly continuous cosine family.

The corresponding strongly continuous sine family{S(t) :t∈R} ⊂L(H,H) is defined by

S(t)x=tC(s)xds,t∈R,xH.

The generatorA:HHof{C(t) :t∈R}is given byAx= d

dtC(t)x|t=for allxD(A) =

{xH:C(·)xC(R;H)}.

It is well known that the infinitesimal generatorAis a closed, densely defined operator onH. Such cosine and corresponding sine families and their generators satisfy the follow-ing properties appearfollow-ing in Fattorini []:

Proposition  Suppose that A is the infinitesimal generator of a cosine family of operators

(5)

(i) there existM∗≥andα≥such thatC(t) ≤M∗eα|t|and henceS(t)Meα|t|,

(ii) AsˆrS(u)xdu= [C(rˆ) –C(s)]xfor all≤s≤ ˆr<∞,

(iii) there existsN∗≥such thatS(s) –Sr) ≤Nsˆreα|s|ds,for alls≤ ˆr<.

The uniform boundedness principle, together with Proposition (i), implies that both

{C(t) :t∈[,T]}and{S(t) :t∈[,T]}are uniformly bounded.

To prove our results, we need the following Krasnoselskii-Schaefer type fixed point the-orem appearing in [].

Theorem  Letandbe two operators of H such that (i) is a strict contraction,and

(ii) is completely continuous.

Then either

() the operator equationx+x=xhas a solution,or

() the setG={xH:λ(λx) +λx=x}is unbounded forλ∈(, ). 3 Existence result

In this section, we aim to give the existence of mild solutions for SNISEEIs ()-(). Firstly, let us propose the definition of the mild solution of SNISEEIs ()-().

Definition  AnFt-adapted stochastic processx: (–∞,T]→His called a mild solution

of SNISEEIs ()-() if

(i) {xt:tJ}isBh-valued andx(·)|JPC;

(ii) x(t)∈Hhas càdlàg paths ontJa.s. and for eachtJ,x(t)satisfies the following integral equation:

(iii) x=φ,x() =ψ.

In this paper, we need the following assumptions:

The main result of this section is the following theorem.

Step .is completely continuous onBr(y|J,Y).

which shows the desired result of the claim.

(10)

SinceS(t) is a compact operator, the set(t) ={ε

x(t) :x∈(Br(y|J,Y))}is relatively

com-pact inHfor everyε,  <ε<t. Moreover, for eachx∈(Br(y|J,Y)), we have

Therefore, we have

E(x)(t) –

εx(t)→, asε→+,

and there are precompact sets arbitrary close to the setV(t) ={x(t) :x∈(Br(y|J,Y))}.

Thus, the setV(t) ={x(t) :x∈(Br(y|J,Y))}is precompact in (Br(y|J,Y)). Therefore, from

the Arzela-Ascoli theorem, the operatoris completely continuous. From Theorem , we infer that there exists a mild solution for the system ()-().

4 Examples

In this section, two types of stochastic nonlinear wave equations with infinite delay and impulsive effects are provided to illustrate the theory obtained.

Example  We consider the following second-order stochastic Volterra integro-differen-tial equations with iniintegro-differen-tial-boundary conditions and impulsive effects:

(11)

LetH=L[,π]. The operatorAis defined by

(Az)(ξ) =d z)

dξ , with domainD(A) =

zH:z() =z(π).

The spectrum ofAconsists of the eigenvalues –nforn∈N, with associated eigenvectors zn(ξ) = (π)/sin(nξ). Furthermore, the set {zn;nN}is an orthonormal basis ofH. In particular,

Ax= ∞

n=

nx,znzn, xD(A).

The operatorsC(t) defined by

C(t)x= ∞

n=

cos(nt)x,znzn, t∈R,

form a cosine function onH, with associated sine function

S(t)x= ∞

n= sin(nt)

n x,znzn, t∈R.

From [], for allxH,t∈R,S(t) ≤ andC(t) ≤.

LetKi(t,s)∈C(R,R),i= , ,  and assume that there exists a positive continuous func-tionf(s) onR–such that

Ki(t,t+s)≤f(s), i= , , , l= 

–∞f(s) ds<∞.

Now, we give the phase spaceBh. Assume thath: (–∞, ]→(,∞) is a continuous

func-tion withl=–∞h(t) dt<∞. For anya> , define

Bh=

ψ: (–∞, ]→H:(θ)/is a bounded and measurable

function on [–a, ] and  –∞h(s)

(s)/ds<∞

.

We endowBhwith the norm

ψBh= 

–∞h(s)

(s)/ds, for allψBh.

Then (Bh, · Bh) is a Banach space. Let

φ(ξ) = 

–∞h(s)φ(s,ξ) ds, g(t,φ)(ξ) =

–∞K(t,t+s)F

φ(s,ξ)ds,

f(t,φ)(ξ) = 

–∞K(t,t+s)F

φ(s,ξ)ds, σ(t,φ)(ξ) = 

–∞K(t,t+s)

(12)

Then ()-() can be rewritten in the abstract form ()-(). We can propose suitable condi-tions on the coefficients appeared in the above equation to guarantee ()-() has at least one mild solution by means of Theorem .

Example  We consider the following stochastic nonlinear wave equation with impulsive effects and infinite delay:

xtk+–xtk–=Ikx(tk), xt+kxtk–=˜Ikx(tk),

k= , , . . . ,m, ()

where x ∈L(;H), φBh, Bh is defined as Example , H=L([,π]), and w is an H-valued Wiener process.

LetA,C(t) andS(t) be defined as Example . Then the above system ()-() can be rewritten in the form of ()-(). Further, we assume that fi: [,T]×R→R(i= , ), σ : [,T]×R→BL(H) andIkIksatisfy (H)-(H). Then ()-() has at least one mild

solution.
