Weak Operator Continuity for Evolutionary Equations

Abstract: Considering evolutionary equations in the sense of Picard, we identify a certain topology for material laws rendering the solution operator continuous if considered as a mapping from the material laws into the set of bounded linear operators, where the latter are endowed with the weak operator topology. The topology is a topology of vector-valued holomorphic functions and provides a lift of the previously introduced nonlocal $\mathrm{H}$-topology to particular holomorphic functions. The main area of applications are nonlocal homogenisation results for coupled systems of time-dependent partial differential equations. A continuous dependence result for a nonlocal model for cell migration is also provided.
