When we talk about evolution equation the first idea that comes to the mind is the semigroups theory. This theory deals with Cauchy problems of the form $$\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}} = Au,$$ where $A$ is an operator on Banach spaces. My question is: is there any theory which deals with evolution problems of the form $$\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}} = A(t)u,$$ where now $A$ may depend on $t$?

    $\begingroup$ Multiplicative ergodic theory is highly relevant, providing the time dependence of $A(t)$ is stationary. $\endgroup$ Commented Nov 2, 2017 at 2:11

You can see these two books:

1) Daniel Daners and Pablo Koch Medina: Abstract evolution equations, periodic problems and applications

2) Peter Hess: Periodic-Parabolic Boundary Value Problems and Positivity
