A new theorem on exponential stability of periodic evolution families on Banach spaces

Constantin Buse & Oprea Jitianu

Abstract:
We consider a mild solution $v_f(\cdot, 0)$ of a well-posed inhomogeneous Cauchy problem
$\dot v(t)=A(t)v(t)+f(t)$, $v(0)=0$
on a complex Banach space $X$, where $A(\cdot)$ is a 1-periodic operator-valued function. We prove that if $v_f(\cdot, 0)$ belongs to $AP_0(\mathbb{R}_+, X)$ for each $f\in AP_0(\mathbb{R}_+, X)$ then for each $x\in X$ the solution of the well-posed Cauchy problem
$\dot u(t)=A(t)v(t)$, $u(0)=x$
is uniformly exponentially stable. The converse statement is also true. Details about the space $AP_0(\mathbb{R}_+, X)$ are given in the section 1, below. Our approach is based on the spectral theory of evolution semigroups.
