Exact and approximate solutions of delay differential equations with nonlocal history conditions

Abstract

We study the exact and approximate solutions of a delay differential equation with various types of nonlocal history conditions. We establish the existence and uniqueness of mild, strong, and classical solutions for a class of such problems using the method of semidiscretization in time. We also establish a result concerning the global existence of solutions. Finally, we consider some examples and discuss their exact and approximate solutions.
