Almost automorphy of minimal sets for $C^1$-smooth strongly monotone skew-product semiflows on Banach spaces

Abstract

We focus on the presence of almost automorphy in strongly monotone skew-product semiflows on Banach spaces. Under the $C^1$-smoothness assumption, it is shown that any linearly stable minimal set must be almost automorphic. This extends the celebrated result of Shen and Yi [Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 136(1998), No. 647] for the classical $C^{1,\alpha}$-smooth systems. Based on this, one can reduce the regularity of the almost periodically forced differential equations and obtain the almost automorphic phenomena in a wider range.
