substitution operators to be studied in this section. Note that thanks to this embedding,<br />

we do not require any growth <strong>conditions</strong> on the <strong>nonlinear</strong>ities.<br />

It should also be remarked that all <strong>nonlinear</strong>ities appearing in the subsequent estimates<br />

are tacitly assumed to be Carathéodory functions so that we do not have to be<br />

concerned <strong>with</strong> measurability questions, cf. Appell and Zabrejko [4, Section 1.4]. Notice<br />

that this corresponds to the regularity assumptions in (H4).<br />

We fix now the notation used in this section. Let J = [0, T ] (0 < T ≤ T0), and<br />

Ω be a bounded domain in R n <strong>with</strong> C 1 <strong>boundary</strong>. For p ∈ (1, ∞) and m ∈ N we<br />

introduce the symbols X m := Lp(J × Ω, R m ), X m 1 := H 1 p(J; Lp(Ω, R m )), and X m 2 :=<br />

Lp(J; H 1 p(Ω, R m )). Our interest lies in the spaces X m 1, s := Hs p(J; Lp(Ω, R m )), (Y k,s<br />

1 ) m :=<br />

B k+s<br />

pp (J; Lp(Ω, R m )), (Y k,s<br />

2 ) m := Lp(J; B k+s<br />

pp (Ω, R m )), where k ∈ {0, 1} and s ∈ (0, 1).<br />

But we will also deal <strong>with</strong> the space (C r 1 )m := C r (J; C(Ω, R m )), where r ∈ [0, 1). For<br />

more brevity, we omit the parameter m in all these notations if m = 1, i.e. we write<br />

X = X 1 , Xi = X 1 i and so forth. With |z| := � m<br />

i=1 |zi| for z ∈ R m , the following<br />

seminorms will play a part below:<br />

Throughout this section, let further K be an open convex subset of R m and b :<br />

J ×Ω×K → R, (t, x, ξ) ↦→ b(t, x, ξ). We shall investigate the Nemytskij operator B which<br />

assigns to a function f on J × Ω <strong>with</strong> values in K the function Bf(t, x) = b(t, x, f(t, x))<br />

which is real-valued and defined on J × Ω. In what follows w will be a fixed K-valued<br />

function defined on J ×Ω, too, which is as smooth as the functions f under consideration,<br />
