On a Nonlinear Volterra-Fredholm Integrodifferential Equation on Time Scales ()
1. Introduction
The theory of time scales had been begun in 1988 by Stefan Hilger [1], in order to develop a theory that can standardize a continuous and discrete analysis. Recently several authors in this field have investigated various forms of integral and integrodifferential equations under different hypotheses by using different ways, see [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]. In this article we consider the nonlinear integrodifferential equation of the following form
(1.1)
where y is unknown function and
,
and
are given functions, assuming them to be rd-continuous functions,
and
. We denote a time scale by
which is nonempty closed subset of

We can investigate the existence and uniqueness results for (1.1) by using the technique present in [6].

The dependency of solutions of (3.41) and (3.42) on parameters follows in the next theorem.
