Abstract

The linear theory of rigid conductors of heat composed of materials with memory is analyzed under assumptions consistent with the theory of Coleman and Gurtin. Under these assumptions, the resulting integro-differential equation is shown to be parabolic modulo a trivial hyperbolic part. An existence and uniqueness theorem follows.
