Abstract

Let \({C^\omega(\Lambda, gl(m,\,\mathbb{C}))}\) be the set of m × m matrices A(λ) depending analytically on a parameter λ in a closed interval \({\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}}\). Consider one-parameter families of quasi-periodic linear differential equations: \({\dot{X} = (A(\lambda) + g(\omega_{1}t,\ldots, \omega_{r}t,\lambda))X}\), where \({A\in C^\omega(\Lambda, gl(m,\,\mathbb{C})),g}\) is analytic and sufficiently small. We prove that there is an open and dense set \({\mathcal A}\) in \({C^\omega(\Lambda, gl(m,\,\mathbb{C}))}\), such that for each \({A(\lambda) \in \mathcal{A}}\) the equation can be reduced to an equation with constant coefficients by a quasi-periodic linear transformation for almost all \({\lambda \in \Lambda}\) in Lebesgue measure sense provided that g is sufficiently small. The result gives an affirmative answer to a conjecture of Eliasson (In: Proceeding of Symposia in Pure Mathematics).
