Memoryless System
A memoryless system is a system for which for any real number $ t_0 $, the output at $ t_0 $ depends only on that value of t.
A system with memory is a system whose output depends on the value $ t_0 $ as well as another value of t for any given $ t_0 $
Causal System
A system is causal if the output at any given time only depends on the input in present and past (not the future)
A system is not causal if the output at any given time depends on input in the future.
Linear System
A system is linear if for any complex constants a and b and for any inputs $ x_1(t) $ and $ x_2(t) $ yielding output $ y_1(t) $ and $ y_2(t) $ respectively, the response is $ a*x_1(t)+b*x_2(t) ==> [SYSTEM] ==> a*y_1(t) + b*y_2(t) $
A system is nonlinear if for any complex constants a and b and for any inputs $ x_1(t) $ and $ x_2(t) $ yielding output $ y_1(t) $ and $ y_2(t) $ respectively, the response is $ a*x_1(t)+b*x_2(t) ==> [SYSTEM] ==> z(t) $ where $ z(t) $ is NOT the constants a and b multiplied by the outputs $ y_1(t) $ and $ y_2(t) $
