Abstract

In the present paper, we study a general class of non-autonomous hyperbolic boundary Cauchy problems. Using the concept of m-dissipative operators, we show the well-posedness of these problems and give a variation of constants formula of their solutions. To illustrate our results, we provide an application to a non-autonomous size-structured population model with delayed birth process.
