Abstract

For a sequence of bounded linear operators {An}n=0 on a Banach space X, we investigate the characterization of exponential dichotomy of the difference equations vn+1=Anvn. We characterize the exponential dichotomy of difference equations in terms of the existence of solutions to the equations vn+1=Anvn+fn in lp spaces (1p<). Then we apply the results to study the robustness of exponential dichotomy of difference equations.
