A note on the top Lyapunov exponent of linear cooperative systems

Abstract

In a recent paper [Asymptotic of the largest Floquet multiplier for cooperative matrices Annales de la Facult\'e des Sciences de Toulouse, Tome XXXI, no 4 (2022)] P. Carmona gives an asymptotic formulae for the top Lyapunov exponent of a linear T-periodic cooperative differential equation, in the limit T goes to infinity. This short note discusses and extends this result.
