Abstract
In terms of the spectral properties of the associated operator matrix, we obtain a new criterion to judge the uniform exponential stability of the solutions to abstract Volterra equations. In particular, we study in detail the case where the kernel function a(t) takes the form α e −βt (β > 0, α ≠ 0). Moreover, we give examples to illustrate our results.
