Abstract

A smooth variation of constants formula for semilinear hyperbolic systems is established using a suitable Banach space $X$ of continuous functions together with its sun dual space $X^odot ast$. It is shown that mild solutions of this variation of constants formula generate a smooth semiflow in $X$. This proves that the stability of stationary states for the nonlinear flow is determined by the stability of the linearized semigroup.
