Lyapunov, metric and flag spectra

arXiv:0912.1476

Abstract

We introduce the \emph{metric spectrum}, which measures the exponential rate of approximation to an isolated invariant set of points starting in its stable set, and relate it to the Lyapunov spectrum. We determine the metric spectrum of each Morse component of the finest Morse decomposition of a linear induced flow on a generalized flag manifold.
