Abstract

In this paper the controllable system whose behaviour is described by a nonlinear Volterra integral equation, is studied. The set of admissible control functions is the closed ball of the space L-p (p > 1) with radius mu(0) and centered at the origin. It is shown that the set of trajectories of the system is a bounded and pre-compact subset of the space of continuous functions.
