Abstract

The relation between the notions of nonuniform asymptotic stability and admissibility is considered. Using appropriate Lyapunov norms, it is showed that if any of their associated spaces, with , is admissible for a given evolution process, then this process is a nonuniform contraction and dichotomy. A collection of admissible Banach spaces for any given nonuniform contraction and dichotomy is provided.
