This paper gives a version of Hartman-Grobman theorem for the impulsive differential equations. We assume that the linear impulsive system has a nonuniform exponential dichotomy. Under some suitable conditions, we proved that the nonlinear impulsive system is topologically conjugated to its linear system. Indeed, we do construct the topologically equivalent function (the transformation). Moreover, the method to prove the topological conjugacy is quite different from those in previous works (e.g., see Barreira and Valls, 2006). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Nonuniform exponential dichotomy has been investigated extensively. The essential condition of these previous results is based on the assumption that the nonlinear term satisfies |f(t,x)| ≤ μe-ε|t|. However, this condition is very restricted. There are few functions satisfying |f(t,x)| ≤ μe-ε|t|. In some sense, this assumption is not reasonable enough. More suitable assumption should be |f(t,x)| ≤ μ. To the best of the authors' knowledge, there is no paper considering the existence and uniqueness of solution to the perturbed nonautonomous system with a relatively conservative assumption |f(t,x)| ≤ μ. In this paper, we prove that if the nonlinear term is bounded, the perturbed nonautonomous system with nonuniform exponential dichotomy has a unique solution. The technique employed to prove Theorem 4 is the highlight of this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
