Abstract

We study abstract Volterra integro-differential equations with kernels of integral operators represented by Stieltjes integrals. The results are based on an approach related to the study of one-parameter semigroups for linear evolution equations. A method is given for reducing the original initial value problem for a model integro-differential equation with operator coefficients in a Hilbert space to the Cauchy problem for a first-order differential equation in an extended function space. The existence of a contraction \(C_0\)-semigroup is proved. The properties of the generator of the semigroup are established based on the properties of the operator function that is the symbol of the original integro-differential equation.
