Abstract
We study the behaviour of the solutions to a dynamic evolution problem for a viscoelastic model with long memory, when the rate of change of the data tends to zero. We prove that a suitably rescaled version of the solutions converges to the solution of the corresponding stationary problem.

Throughout this section we fix \(a_0>0\), \(b_0>0\), and \(c_1\ge c_0>1\). For every a, b with
we consider the polynomial \(p(z):=\beta z^3+z^2+\beta b z+a\) depending on the complex variable z. The following result about the roots of this polynomial is used in the proof of Lemma 5.2 and Proposition 5.4.
Lemma A.1
There exists a positive constant \(\alpha =\alpha (\beta ,a_0,b_0,c_0,c_1)\) such that, for every \(a,b\in {\mathbb {R}}\) satisfying (A.1), the roots of the polynomial p have real parts in the interval \((-\frac{1}{\beta },-\alpha )\).
Proof
Let us set \(z:=x+iy\) with \(x,y\in {\mathbb {R}}\). Then \(p(z)=0\) if and only if
from which we derive
By recalling \(a>0\) and \(b-a\ge (c_0-1)a>0\), for every \(x\ge 0\) we have \(q(x)>0\) and \(r(x)>0\), and so the real part of the roots cannot be positive or zero. Moreover, since for every \(x\le -\frac{1}{\beta }\) we have \(\beta x^3+x^2\le 0\), we obtain
which imply that the real part of the roots does not belong to \((-\infty ,-\frac{1}{\beta }]\). Therefore, by calling \(z_1,z_2,z_3\in {\mathbb {C}}\) the three roots of the polynomial p, we can say
Case 1: there is only one real root. In this case by (A.3) there exists a unique \(x_1\in (-\frac{1}{\beta },0)\) which satisfies \(r(x_1)=0\) and \(3x^2_1+\frac{2}{\beta }x_1+b>0\). Indeed by setting \(y_1:=\sqrt{3x^2_1+\frac{2}{\beta }x_1+b}\) we obtain that \(x_1+iy_1\) and \(x_1-iy_1\) are two distinct non-real roots of p. Since
then \(x_1\in (-\frac{1 }{2\beta },-\frac{\beta (b-a)}{2\left( b\beta ^2+1\right) })\). Moreover
hence there exists \(x_0\in (-\frac{1}{\beta },-\frac{a}{\beta b})\) such that \(q(x_0)=0\). As a consequence of this, \((x_0,0)\) satisfies the system in (A.2), which implies that \(x_0\) is the real root of p, hence we have \(\mathfrak {R}(z_i)\in (-\frac{1}{\beta },\max \{-\frac{a}{\beta b},-\frac{\beta (b-a)}{2\left( b \beta ^2+1\right) }\})\). Thanks to (A.1) we can say \(-\tfrac{a}{\beta b}\le -\tfrac{1}{c_1\beta }\) and \(-\tfrac{\beta (b-a)}{2\left( b\beta ^2+1\right) }\le \tfrac{\beta (1-c_0)a}{2(c_1a\beta ^2+1)}\le \tfrac{\beta (1-c_0)a_0}{2\left( c_1a_0\beta ^2+1\right) }\), where in the last inequality we use the decreasing property of the function \(a\mapsto \tfrac{\beta (1-c_0)a}{2(c_1a\beta ^2+1)}\). This implies
Case 2: there are only real roots. In this case we have \(b\le \frac{1}{3\beta ^2}\), otherwise \(q'(x)>0\) for every \(x\in {\mathbb {R}}\), which forces p to have also non-real roots. Thanks to (A.1) we have also \(a<b\le \frac{1}{3\beta ^2}\). By setting \({\tilde{b}}_0:=1-\sqrt{1-3b_0\beta ^2}\), we can write
which implies
Since
thanks to (A.1), (A.4), and (A.6) we get
By combining (A.5) and (A.7), we obtain the conclusion with
\(\square \)
The following easy estimate is used in the proof of Lemma 5.2.
Lemma A.2
For every \(z,w\in {\mathbb {C}}\) with \(\mathfrak {R}(z)>0\) and \(\mathfrak {R}(w)<0\) the following inequality holds:
Proof
Without loss of generality we can suppose \(\mathfrak {I}(w)>0\), otherwise we exchange the role of w with \({{\bar{w}}}\). If \(\mathfrak {I}(z)>0\), then
which give the conclusion in this case. If \(\mathfrak {I}(z)<0\), then
which conclude the proof. \(\square \)
