On the principle of linearized stability for quasilinear evolution equations in time-weighted spaces

Quasilinear (and semilinear) parabolic problems of the form $v'=A(v)v+f(v)$ with strict inclusion $\mathrm{dom}(f)\subsetneq \mathrm{dom}(A)$ of the domains of the function $v\mapsto f(v)$ and the quasilinear part $v\mapsto A(v)$ are considered in the framework of time-weighted function spaces. This allows one to establish the principle of linearized stability in intermediate spaces lying between $\mathrm{dom}(f)$ and $\mathrm{dom}(A)$ and yields a greater flexibility with respect to the phase space for the evolution. In applications to differential equations such intermediate spaces may correspond to critical spaces exhibiting a scaling invariance. Several examples are provided to demonstrate the applicability of the results.
