Admissibility and nonuniform exponential dichotomies for difference equations without bounded growth or Lyapunov norms.

Many previous works used the admissibility of function classes to characterize nonuniform exponential dichotomy (for short, NEDs) by employing Lyapunov norms. Recently, L. Zhou and W. Zhang [J. Funct. Anal. 271 (2016), pp. 1087–1129] characterized NEDs without Lyapunov norms. They utilized two admissible pairs of function classes and an assumption on certain subspaces to describe NEDs under the prerequisite of bounded growth, which plays an essential role in their arguments. However, in this paper, we remove the condition of bounded growth when characterizing NEDs. Neither bounded growth nor Lyapunov norms are used to describe NEDs in this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
