Stability of dichotomies in difference equations with infinite delay

For delay difference equations with infinite delay we consider the notion of nonuniform exponential dichotomy. This includes the notion of uniform exponential dichotomy as a very special case. Our main aim is to establish a stable manifold theorem under sufficiently small nonlinear perturbations. We also establish the robustness of nonuniform exponential dichotomies under sufficiently small linear perturbations. Finally, we characterize the nonuniform exponential dichotomies in terms of strict Lyapunov sequences. In particular, we construct explicitly a strict Lyapunov sequence for each exponential dichotomy.     

Stable invariant manifolds for delay equations with piecewise constant argument

We construct smooth stable invariant manifolds for a class of delay equations with piecewise constant delay, for any sufficiently small perturbation of a nonuniform exponential dichotomy. We build on former work for perturbations of a uniform exponential dichotomy, also for delay equations with piecewise constant delay. These equations can be described as delay equations with an impulsive behavior of the derivative, such that at certain times the derivative changes abruptly.     

Asymptotic behavior of solutions of functional difference equations

For linear functional difference equations, we obtain some results on the asymptotic behavior of solutions, which correspond to a Perron-type theorem for linear ordinary difference equations. We also apply our results to Volterra difference equations with infinite delay.     

Convergent solutions of linear functional difference equations in phase space

By using weighted summable dichotomies and Schauder's fixed point theorem, we prove the existence of convergent solutions of linear functional difference equations. We apply our result to Volterra difference equations with infinite delay.     

Almost periodic random sequences in probability

In this paper almost periodic random sequence in probability is defined and investigated. It is also applied to random difference equations by means of exponential dichotomy. The existence of such kind of solutions of random difference equations is discussed.     

A topological equivalence result for a family of nonlinear difference systems having generalized exponential dichotomy

We obtain sufficient conditions ensuring the topological and strong topological equivalence of two perturbed difference systems whose linear part has a property of generalized exponential dichotomy. When the exponential dichotomy is verified, we obtain a strongly and Hölder topological equivalence.     

Delay difference equations in Banach spaces

We derive explicit stability conditions for semilinear delay difference equations in a Banach space. It is assumed that the nonlinearities of the considered equations satisfy the local Lipschitz condition. By virtue of the new estimates for the norm of functions of quasi-Hermitian operators, explicit stability and boundedness conditions are given. Applications to infinite dimensional delay difference systems are discussed.     

Stability in delay difference equations with nonuniform exponential behavior

We study the stability under perturbations for delay difference equations in Banach spaces. Namely, we establish the (nonuniform) stability of linear nonuniform exponential contractions under sufficiently small perturbations. We also obtain a stable manifold theorem for perturbations of linear delay difference equations admitting a nonuniform exponential dichotomy, and show that the stable manifolds are Lipschitz in the perturbation.     

Input–output control systems and dichotomy of variational difference equations

We propose a new and unified approach for the study of dichotomy of variational difference equations, establishing a link between control methods and basic techniques from interpolation theory. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of uniform dichotomy and, respectively, for uniform exponential dichotomy of variational difference equations in terms of the admissibility of general pairs of sequence spaces. We provide a classification of the main classes of sequence spaces where the input spaces and the output spaces may belong to, for each dichotomy property and prove that the hypotheses on the underlying sequence spaces cannot be removed. The obtained results extend the framework to the study of dichotomy of variational difference equations, hold without any requirement on the coefficients and are applicable to all systems of variational difference equations.     

Exponential dichotomies of linear dynamic equations on measure chains under slowly varying coefficients

Unifying ordinary differential and difference equations, we consider linear dynamic equations on measure chains or time scales, which possess an exponential dichotomy uniformly in a parameter, and show that this dichotomy is robust, if the mentioned parameter changes slowly in time. Here, the equations can be infinite dimensional and are not assumed to be invertible.

Exponential dichotomy of systems of linear difference equations with periodic coefficients

We study the problem of exponential dichotomy for the systems of linear difference equations with periodic coefficients. Some criterion is established for exponential dichotomy in terms of solvability of a special boundary value problem for a system of discrete Lyapunov equations. We also give estimates for dichotomy parameters.

Stability and asymptoticity of Volterra difference equations: A progress report

We survey some of the fundamental results on the stability and asymptoticity of linear Volterra difference equations. The method of Z$Z$-transform is heavily utilized in equations of convolution type. An example is given to show that uniform asymptotic stability does not necessarily imply exponential stabilty. It is shown that the two notions are equivalent if the kernel decays exponentially. For equations of nonconvolution type, Liapunov functions are used to find explicit criteria for stability. Moreover, the resolvent matrix is defined to produce a variation of constants formula. The study of asymptotic equivalence for difference equations with infinite delay is carried out in Section 6. Finally, we state some problems.     

A note on the dichotomy spectrum

In many ways, exponential dichotomies are an appropriate hyperbolicity notion for nonautonomous linear differential or difference equations. The corresponding dichotomy spectrum generalizes the classical set of eigenvalues or Floquet multipliers and is therefore of eminent importance in a stability theory for explicitly time-dependent systems, as well as to establish a geometric theory of nonautonomous problems with ingredients like invariant manifolds and normal forms, or to deduce continuation and bifurcation techniques.

In this note, we derive some invariance and perturbation properties of the dichotomy spectrum for nonautonomous linear difference equations in Banach spaces. They easily follow from the observation that the dichotomy spectrum is strongly related to a weighted shift operator on an ambient sequence space.     

Positivity and stability of linear functional differential equations with infinite delay

General linear functional differential equations with infinite delay are considered. We first give an explicit criterion for positivity of the solution semigroup of linear functional differential equations with infinite delay and then a Perron‐Frobenius type theorem for positive equations. Next, a novel criterion for the exponential asymptotic stability of positive equations is presented. Furthermore, two sufficient conditions for the exponential asymptotic stability of positive equations subjected to structured perturbations and affine perturbations are provided. Finally, we applied the obtained results to problems of the exponential asymptotic stability of Volterra integrodifferential equations. To the best of our knowledge, most of the results of this paper are new.     

Stability of delay equations via Lyapunov functions

The importance of Lyapunov functions is well known. In the general setting of nonautonomous linear delay equations v^′=L(t)vt, we show how to characterize completely the existence of a nonuniform exponential contraction or of a nonuniform exponential dichotomy in terms of Lyapunov functions. This includes uniform exponential behavior as a very special case, and it provides an alternative (usually simpler and particularly more direct) approach to verify the existence of exponential behavior or to obtain the robustness of the dynamics under sufficiently small perturbations.
