- Hartman-Grobman theorem
In
mathematics , in the study ofdynamical systems , the Hartman-Grobman theorem or linearization theorem is an important theorem about the local behaviour of dynamical systems in the neighbourhood of ahyperbolic fixed point .Basically the theorem states that the behaviour of a dynamical system near a hyperbolic fixed point is qualitatively the same as the behaviour of its
linearization near the origin. Therefore when dealing with such fixed points we can use the simpler linearization of the system to analyze its behaviour.Hartman-Grobman theorem
Let:
be a
smooth map with a hyperbolic fixed point "p". Let "A" denote the linearization of "f" at point "p". Then there exists a neighborhood "U" of "p" and ahomeomorphism :such that:
that is, in a neighbourhood "U" of "p", "f" is
topologically conjugate to its linearization. [cite journal|last = Grobman|first = D.M.|title = Homeomorphisms of systems of differential equations|journal = Dokl. Akad.
