Consider a linear time-varying system:
\begin{equation}
\dot x(t) = A(t) x(t), \tag{$*$}
\end{equation}
where $A(t)$ is a time-varying block matrix defined as
$$
A(t) =

Selecting a suitable Lyapunov function for the following systems?
i) SI MODEL
Consider
\begin{align}
\frac{dS}{dt} &= \mu N -\frac{\beta S I}{N} - \nu S\\[2ex]
\frac{dI}{dt} &= \frac{\beta S I}{N} -\nu I
\end{align}
Where $N=S+I$ is the total population.

conditions for asymptotic comparison to hold
I have the following simple dynamical system:
\begin{align}
x_1' &= a - f(x_2)x_1\\
x_2' &= bx_1 - cx_2,
\end{align}
where all parameters and initial conditions are positive. $f(x_2)$ is a ...

Is the convergence of $\dot{x}=2A(t)x$ faster than that of $\dot{x}=A(t)x$?
Let $x \in \mathbb{R}^{n}$ and $A(t) \in \mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$. If $\dot{x}=A(t)x$ and $\dot{x}=cA(t)x$ with $c>1$ are exponentially stable. Is the convergence rate of $x$ to zero of $\dot{x}=cA(...

Center manifold theorem and case of all zero eigenvalues
Is the center manifold theorem applicable if say for a planar (2D) system of non-linear ODE, the stability matrix has both eigenvalues zero? Of course, there is only one eigenvector.
If not, what is ...
