A note on linear differential equations with variable coefficients

Abstract

In this manuscript, we deal with some particular type of homogeneous first order linear systems with variable coefficients, in which we provide qualitative properties of the solution. When the coefficients of the indeterminate functions are periodic with the same period, $T$, we obtain a simple method so as to obtain the Floquet coefficients. We give a new interpretation of the averages on the interval $(0,T)$ of the matrix of the coefficients. We discuss some examples and made some comparison with previous results.
