Differential equations in spaces of compact operators

Abstract

We study a system of differential equations in C (H), the space of all compact operators on a separable complex Hilbert space, H. The systems considered are infinite-dimensional generalizations of mathematical models of learning, implementable as artificial neural networks. In this new setting, in addition to the usual questions of existence and uniqueness of solutions, we discuss issues which are operator theoretic in nature. Under some restrictions on the initial condition, we explicitly solve the system and represent the solution in terms of the spectral representation of the initial condition. We also discuss the stability of those solutions, and describe the weak, strong, and uniform limit sets in terms of their respective spectral properties. © 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
