We get an existence result for solutions to a nonlinear integral equation with contractive perturbation by means of Krasnoselskii s fixed point theorem and especially the theory of measure of weak noncompactness. 1. Introduction The integral equations have many applications in mechanics physics engineering biology economics and so on. It is worthwhile mentioning that some problems considered in the theory of abstract differential equations also lead us to integral equations in Banach space and some foundational work has been done in 1-8 . In this paper we want to study the following integral equation x f g t x t x l t fi t J k t s f2 s x s ds t e R in the Banach space X. This equation has been studied when X R in 9 with g 0 and 10 with a perturbation term g. Our paper extends their work to more general spaces and some modifications are also given on an error of 10 . Our paper is organized as follows. In Section 2 some notations and auxiliary results will be given. We will introduce the main tools measure of weak noncompactness and Krasnoselskii s fixed point theorem in Section 3 and Section 4. The main theorem in our paper will be established in Section 5. 2 Advances in Difference Equations 2. Preliminaries First of all we give out some notations to appear in the following. R .
