Sign-changing Lyapunov functions in linear extensions of dynamical systems
Abstract
In this note we consider sets of linear extensions of dynamical systems on a torus. We examine regularity of the systems by means of a given sign-changing Lyapunov function. The main result of the paper is to give conditions of regularity for the set of differential equations with degenerated matrix of coefficients.
