Kato's theorem on the integration of non-autonomous linear evolution   equations
  This paper is devoted to a comparison of early works of Kato and Yosida on the integration of non-autonomous linear evolution equations $\dot{x} = A(t)x$ in Banach space, where the domain $D$ of $A(t)$ is independent of $t$. Our focus is on the regularity assumed of $t\mapsto A(t)$ and our main objective is to clarify the meaning of the rather involved set of assumptions given in Yosida's classic and highly influential \emph{Functional Analysis}. We prove Yosida's assumptions to be equivalent to Kato's condition that $t\mapsto A(t)x$ is continuously differentiable for each $x\in D$.
