Description
Summary:This paper firstly shows that there does not exist a nonzero periodic solution for a nonhomogeneous Cauchy problem by using the Laplace transformation on time scales. Secondly, two new Gronwall inequalities, which play an important role in the qualitative analysis of differential and integral equations, are established. Thirdly, by employing the contraction mapping principle, existence and uniqueness results of weighted S-asymptotically ω-periodic solutions for nonlinear Cauchy problem on time scales are obtained in an asymptotically periodic function space. Finally, some examples are presented to illustrate some of the results described here.
