Abstract

This paper discusses the initial value problem

where A, Bi and Ci are d × d complex matrices, pi, qi ∈ (0, 1), i = 1, 2, …, and y0 is a column vector in ℂd. By using ideas from the theory of ordinary differential equations and the theory of functional equations, we give a comprehensive analysis of the asymptotic behaviour of analytic solutions of this initial value problem.
