In this talk we consider classical notions of exponential stability from two perspectives: 

 

First, we review a characterization of exponential stability for linear, finite-dimensional and autonomous dynamic equations on time scales in terms of the set of exponential stability. This is based on a joint work [2] with Stefan Siegmund and Fabian Wirth in the early 2000s. 

 

Second, it came as a surprise when Rodrigues and Solà-Morales constructed a nonlinear autonomous difference equation in a separable Hilbert space, whose trivial solution is exponentially asymptotically stable, while its linearization has a spectral radius greater than 1 (see [3]). This means that the principle of linearized stability provides a sufficient, but not a necessary condition for exponential asymptotic stability. In a recent collaboration [1] with Ábel Garab and Mihály Pituk we prove that the principle of linearized stability indeed yields a necessary and sufficient condition for the slightly stronger notion of exponential stability. This characterization remains true when dealing with nonautonomous difference or differential equations in terms of the dichotomy spectrum.
