Existence and robustness of exponential dichotomy of linear skew-product semiflows over semiflows

In this paper we investigate the exponential dichotomy of linear skew-product semiflows over semiflows by considering the operators generated by the integral equation related to strongly continuous cocycles over metric spaces acting on Banach bundles. We characterize the existence of exponential dichotomy by properties of these operators and use this characterization to prove the robustness of exponential dichotomy. © 2006 Elsevier Inc.
