Abstract:

Linear differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) with time-varying coefficients A(t)x′(t) + B(t)x(t) = q(t), which are tractable with a higher index, are discussed. Their essential properties are investigated. Some equivalent systems are given. Using them the paper shows how to state properly initial and boundary conditions for these DAEs. The existence and uniqueness theory of the solution of the initial and boundary value problems
for higher index DAEs are proposed.

Key words: Differential-algebraic equations, index, solvability, existence, uniqueness
