Abstract
This paper investigates a class of nonlinear multidimensional integral equations on R 𝑛 with non-compact Hammerstein operator. These equations arise in various fields of mathematical physics and mathematical epidemiology. A distinguishing feature of the studied equations is the lack of complete continuity of the associated nonlinear operator in the space of bounded functions on R𝑛, the presence of a trivial (zero) solution, and the non-reflexivity of the corresponding function space, within which the existence of a nontrivial fixed point is considered. Under appropriate conditions on the kernel and the nonlinear term, a constructive theorem is established for the existence of a positive, bounded, and continuous solution. Moreover, the method of successive approximations is shown to converge uniformly to the solution at a rate an infinitely decreasing geometric progression. Within a sufficiently broad subclass of nonnegative, bounded functions on R𝑛, the uniqueness of the solution is also proven. The integral asymptotic behavior of the constructed solution is examined under additional constraints on the kernel and nonlinearity. Finally, explicit examples of kernels and nonlinearities satisfying all the assumptions of the theorems are provided.
