Stability properties of dissipative evolution equations with nonautonomous and nonlinear damping

Abstract

In this paper, we obtain some stability results of (abstract) dissipative evolution equations with a nonautonomous and nonlinear damping using the exponential stability of the retrograde problem with a linear and autonomous feedback and a comparison principle. We then illustrate our abstract statements for different concrete examples, where new results are achieved. In a preliminary step, we prove some well-posedness results for some nonlinear and nonautonomous evolution equations.
