We consider a special system of integral equations of convolution type with a monotone convex nonlinearity naturally arising when searching for stationary or limit states in various dynamic models of applied nature, for example, in models of the spread of epidemics, and prove theorems stating the existence or absence of a nontrivial bounded solution with limits at +@ depending on the values of these limits and on the structure of the matrix kernel of the system. We also study the uniqueness of such a solution assuming that it exists. Specific examples of systems whose parameters satisfy the conditions stated in our theorems are given.
