FCNM–ESPOL Researchers Contribute New Mathematical Foundations for Studying Systems with Memory
The research, titled “Solutions to Volterra integral equations in bounded Φ-variation spaces,” generalizes a mathematical problem related to Volterra integral equations, which are used to study phenomena whose evolution depends on past events, known as “systems with memory.”
The study, published in the journal AIMS Mathematics (Q1), is the work of professors and researchers Mireya Bracamonte and Liliana Pérez from the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics at ESPOL. It contributes new theoretical foundations to functional analysis, with applications in applied mathematics.
