There has been considerable recent interest in solving non-local equations of motion which contain an infinite number of derivatives. Here, focusing on inflation, we review how the problem can be reformulated as the question of finding solutions to a diffusion-like partial differential equation with non-linear boundary conditions. Moreover, we show that this diffusion-like equation, and hence the non-local equations, can be solved as an initial value problem once non-trivial initial data consistent with the boundary conditions is found. This is done by considering linearised equations about any field value, for which we show that obtaining solutions using the diffusion-like equation is equivalent to solving a local but infinite field cosmology. These local fields are shown to consist of at most two canonically normalized or phantom fields together with an infinite number of quintoms. We then numerically solve the diffusion-like equation for the full non-linear case for two string field theory motivated models.

In the light front quantisation scheme initial conditions are usually provided on a single lightlike hyperplane. This, however, is insufficient to yield a unique solution of the field equations. We investigate under which additional conditions the pr oblem of solving the field equations becomes well posed. The consequences for quantisation are studied within a Hamiltonian formulation by using the method of Faddeev and Jackiw for dealing with first-order Lagrangians. For the prototype field theory of massive scalar fields in 1+1 dimensions, we find that initial conditions for fixed light cone time {sl and} boundary conditions in the spatial variable are sufficient to yield a consistent commutator algebra. Data on a second lightlike hyperplane are not necessary. Hamiltonian and Euler-Lagrange equations of motion become equivalent; the description of the dynamics remains canonical and simple. In this way we justify the approach of discretised light cone quantisation.

An algebraic method is devised to look for non-local symmetries of the pseudopotential type of nonlinear field equations. The method is based on the use of an infinite-dimensional subalgebra of the prolongation algebra $L$ associated with the equatio ns under consideration. Our approach, which is applied by way of example to the Dym and the Korteweg-de Vries equations, allows us to obtain a general formula for the infinitesimal operator of the non-local symmetries expressed in terms of elements of $L$. The method could be exploited to investigate the symmetry properties of other nonlinear field equations possessing nontrivial prolongations.

I review the present status of the problem of initial conditions for inflation and describe several ways to solve this problem for many popular inflationary models, including the recent generation of the models with plateau potentials favored by cosmological observations.
We examine initial-boundary value problems for diffusion equations with distributed order time-fractional derivatives. We prove existence and uniqueness results for the weak solution to these systems, together with its continuous dependency on initia l value and source term. Moreover, under suitable assumption on the source term, we establish that the solution is analytic in time.
The existence and multiplicity of solutions for a class of non-local elliptic boundary value problems with superlinear source functions are investigated in this paper. Using variational methods, we examine the changes arise in the solution behaviours as a result of the non-local effect. Comparisons are made of the results here with those of the elliptic boundary value problem in the absence of the non-local term under the same prescribed conditions to highlight this effect of non-locality on the solution behaviours. Our results here demonstrate that the complexity of the solution structures is significantly increased in the presence of the non-local effect with the possibility ranging from no permissible positive solution to three positive solutions and, contrary to those obtained in the absence of the non-local term, the solution profiles also vary depending on the superlinearity of the source functions.
