Integral equations arising in the kinetic theory of gases. (English) Zbl 0697.45004

The paper contains an existence result for the nonlinear integral equation of the form \((1)\quad x(t)=\psi (t)+[f(t,x(t))+\int^{\infty}_{0}\sigma (t,s)x(s)ds]\int^{\infty}_{0}\sigma (t,s)K(s,x(s))ds.\) The functions involved in (1) are members of the space \(L^ p(R_+)\), \(1\leq p\leq \infty.\)
In the reviewer’s opinion the results obtained in the paper are “almost” trivial because the authors assume the Lipschitz continuity of the functions occurring in the equation (1). Moreover, the text contains several misprints which make the paper to be illegible in general. For example, the assumption \((A_ 2)\) exploits a function h which does not occur in the equation (1).
