Abstract
Based on our preceding paper, this note is concerned with the exponential stability of the
solution semigroup for the abstract linear autonomous functional differential equation
x˙(t)=L(xt) (∗)
where L is a continuous linear operator on some abstract phase space B
into a Banach space E. We
prove that the solution semigroup of (∗) is exponentially stable if and only if the fundamental operator (∗)
is exponentially stable and the phase space B
is an exponentially fading memory space.
