In this article, we study the existence and uniqueness of square-mean piecewise almost periodic solutions to a class of impulsive stochastic functional differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motion. Moreover, the stability of the mild solution is obtained. To illustrate the results obtained in the paper, an impulsive stochastic functional differential equation driven by fractional Brownian motion is considered.
1 Introduction
Impulsive systems arise naturally in a wide variety of evolutionary processes in which states are changed abruptly at certain moments of time. Impulsive stochastic modeling has come to play an important role in many branches of science where more and more people have encountered impulsive stochastic differential equations. For example, a stochastic model for drug distribution in a biological system was described by Tsokos and Padgett [1] as a closed system with a simplified heart, one organ, or capillary bed, and recirculation of blood with a constant rate of flow, where the heart is considered as a mixing chamber of constant volume. Recently, there has been a significant development in impulsive stochastic differential equations (ISDEs). The existence and stability of ISDEs were investigated in [2–11] and the references therein.
On the other hand, in recent years, there has been considerable interest in studying fractional Brownian motions (fBms) due to their compact properties and applications in various scientific areas, including telecommunications [12, 13], turbulence [14], image processing [15], and finance [16]. Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) driven by fBms attract the interest of researchers [2, 3, 17–21]. Taking the time delay into account, the theory of stochastic differential equations has been generalized to stochastic functional differential equations; it makes the dynamics more complex and the system may lose stability and show almost periodicity. Arthi et al. [2] considered the existence and exponential stability for neutral stochastic integrodifferential equations with impulses driven by fractional Brownian motion (fBm), and Caraballo [3] studied the existence of mild solutions to stochastic delay evolution equations with fBm and impulses.
In this paper, we are concerned with the existence and stability of almost periodic mild solutions to the following impulsive stochastic functional differential system driven by fBm with Hurst index
where
such that ϕ(s, ⋅) is
There are several difficulties with our problems. First, there is the delay for the impulsive stochastic differential equations. Second, about the stochastic differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motion, the classical stochastic integral failed for lack of the martingale property. Third, there is no strong solution for stochastic partial delay differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motion. The lifting space method, mild solutions, fixed point theorem, and semigroup theory will be used to overcome these difficulties.
The paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, we introduce some notations and necessary preliminaries. Section 3 is devoted to stating the existence and uniqueness of the mild square-mean piecewise almost periodic solution to (1). In Section 4, we show the stability of the mild square-mean piecewise almost periodic solution. An example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the results.

3 Existence of Square-Mean Piecewise Almost Periodic Solution
In this section, we study the existence of the square-mean piecewise almost periodic solution to (1). We first present some assumptions as follows:
(H1) Let the bounded linear operator A be an infinitesimal generator of an analytic semigroup {S(t), t ≥ 0} such that
for some γ > 0, M > 0. Moreover, R(λ, A) is almost periodic, where λ ∈ ρ(A).
(H2) Let
for any
(H3) Let
for some positive constant MI.
Recall the notion of a mild solution for Eq. 1.
Definition 3.1 An
for all t ≥ t0 and for each
Theorem 3.1 Let (H1) − (H3) be satisfied. Then, (1) has a unique square-mean piecewise almost periodic mild solution whenever
Consider the following equation:
with t ≥ t0. It is easy to verify that the above equation is equivalent to (7). Define the operator
for all
I)
II)
Proof of Statement (I) This will be done in two steps.
Step 1 We claim that
Let
for all t′, t″ ∈ (ti, ti+1), t′ < t″ as 0 < t″ − t′ < δ, where
for all t′, t″ ∈ (ti, ti+1), t′ < t″. By the assumptions (H1), (H2), and (H3), we have that
and
for all t′, t″ ∈ (ti, ti+1), t′ < t″. Moreover, we also have that
and
for all t′, t″ ∈ (ti, ti+1), t′ < t″. Combining these with Hölder’s inequality and (9), we get that
and
for all t′, t″ ∈ (ti, ti+1), t′ < t″ provided |t″ − t′| < δ. Similarly, by the assumptions (H1) and (H3) and (9), one can see that
for all t′, t″ ∈ (ti, ti+1), t′ < t″ provided |t″ − t′| < δ. Thus, we have shown that the estimate
holds for all t′, t″ ∈ (ti, ti+1), t′ < t″ provided |t″ − t′| < δ, which means
Step 2 We prove the almost periodicity of
For Φ1(t), let ti < t < ti+1; by (H1), (H2), and Hölder’s inequality, we have that
where
for each x ∈ Λ, |t − ti| > ɛ, since
For s ∈ [tj + η, tj+1 − η],
For
Similarly, we can show that
where C1, C2 are two positive constants. Thus, we have introduced the next estimate:
where N1 is a positive constant, which implies that Φ1(t) is square-mean piecewise almost periodic.
We now show that Φ2(t) is square-mean piecewise almost periodic. Recall that t↦σ(t) is piecewise almost periodic if for each ɛ > 0 there exists a real number l(ɛ) > 0 such that the estimate
holds for every interval of length l(ɛ) containing a number τ. By using (H1) and the computation of fBm, we have
Furthermore, by Hölder’s inequality, we have
where
where N2 is a positive constant, and hence Φ2(t) is piecewise square-mean almost periodic.
For

which implies that
Proof of Statement (II) Given
From (H1), (H2), (H3) and the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, we have that
and
It follows that
for each
This means that
4 Asymptotic Stability
In this section, we are interested in the asymptotical stability of the almost periodic mild solution to (1) with t0 = 0. For convenience, we rewrite the equation as follows:
Lemma 4.1 ([30]). Let a nonnegative piecewise continuous function t↦v(t) satisfy the inequality
for t ≥ t0, where C ≥ 0, u(σ) > 0, αi ≥ 0,
Theorem 4.1 Assume that (H1) − (H3) hold. The almost periodic solutions to (15) are asymptotically stable in the square-mean sense if
ProofLet x(t) and x*(t) be two square-mean piecewise almost periodic mild solutions of (15); we then have that
for all t ≥ 0. By using Cauchy–Schwartz’s inequality, Fubini’s theorem, and assumptions (H1) − (H3), we deduce that
for t ≥ 0. Multiplying both sides of the above inequality by eγt, we get
for t ≥ 0, which implies that
for t ≥ 0. Combining this with Lemma 4.1, we get that
for t ≥ 0. So,
for t ≥ 0. Thus, we get the desired estimate
and the square-mean piecewise almost periodic solution of (15) is asymptotically stable in the square-mean sense because of (16). This completes the proof.
5 An Example
Consider the semilinear impulsive stochastic partial functional differential equations of the following form:
where r is a constant and BH(t) is a fractional Brownian motion. Denote X = L2(Ω, L2([0, π])) and define A: D(A) ⊆ X → X given by
It is well known that a strongly continuous semigroup {S(t)}t≥0 generated by the operator A satisfies ‖S(t)‖ ≤ e−t, for t ≥ 0. Take
and
Thus, one has
and
Let α = 1. Then, (17) has a square-mean piecewise almost periodic mild solution, provided that
