Abstract
An equation of the form
where µ is a number factor,
is called an equation with a difference kernel. Equations of this kind are used in a number of applied problems (the problem of optimal synthesis [98], light scattering in the atmosphere [87], diffraction on a ribbon [28], the theory of elasticity [1]). This fact is usually caused by certain homogenity of the considered processes in time or space.
