Abstract:

We study questions related to asymptotic almost periodicity of solutions of the linear convolution equation $( \ast )\mu \ast x = f$. Here $\mu$ is a complex measure, and $x$ and $f$ are bounded functions. Basically we are interested in conditions which imply that bounded solutions of $( \ast )$ are asymptotically almost periodic. In particular, we show that a certain necessary condition on $f$ for this to happen is also sufficient, thereby strengthening earlier results. We also include a result on existence of bounded solutions, and indicate a generalization to a distribution equation.
