A general framework for splitting concepts for cocycles over generalized nonautonomous dynamical systems (Q1992786)

Summary: While the classic theory of exponential dichotomy deals with differential and difference equations with uniquely determined forward and backward solutions, nowadays, applications in engineering require having corresponding theory for equations whose backward solutions are not guaranteed to exist or to be unique. To this goal, we will consider general dichotomic behaviors that consist in assuming the existence of splitting into invariant subspaces, where the norms of the evolution trajectories are bounded by some functions that depend on the initial and final times.
