Abstract

In this paper, we study the existence of almost periodic solutions and also the nonexistence of non-uniformly continuous Stepanov-almost periodic solutions of the \(n\)th-order differential equation \(u^{(n)}(t)=Au(t)+f(t),\;n\in \mathbb N ,\;t\in \mathbb R ,\) in a Banach space \(\mathbb X ,\) where \(A:\mathbb X \rightarrow \mathbb X \) is a nonzero bounded linear operator and \(f:\mathbb R \rightarrow \mathbb X \) is a Stepanov-almost periodic continuous function. We also study the existence of an almost periodic solution to \(u^{(n)}(t)=Au(t)+f(t,u(t)),\) where \(f:\mathbb R \times \mathbb X \rightarrow \mathbb X \) is a Stepanov-almost periodic continuous function satisfying a suitable Lipschitz condition.
