Recovering degenerate kernels in hyperbolic integro-differential equations. (English) Zbl 1009.45014

The authors first consider the problem of recovering degenerate kernels appearing in hyperbolic integrodifferential equations related to viscoelastic multi-dimensional materials under boundary conditions of traction type. Then existence, uniqueness and stability for the solutions of such problems are proved.
Under suitable assumptions, it is established that a sequence of solutions corresponding to degenerate kernels can converge to a solution corresponding to a non-degenerate one.
Section 8 of the paper contains an application of already proved abstract result of sections 3-7 to the problems in viscoelasticity.
