In some simple cases, however, the characteristic equation can be found and the characteristic exponents written as series in lntein the case of the era1 [51 or fractional [2 - 61 powers of E.’ Clearly, set of two equations cl), the expansion will be in powers of 6 = JE [4, 51 . Recalling Lyapunov’ s familiar theorem, we form a system in variations in the Polncare form. I.e. we confine ourselves to the first approximation system:
If both characteristic exponents of (16) have negative real parts, the perturbed solution will be asymptotically Lyapunov-stable, and will be unstable if one or both have a positive real part [4, 51. The other critical cases require the consideration of the still neglected nonlinear terms. The aim of the present section is to find sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of our second-degree solution. The solution

However, if the first expression is zero, the characteristic exponents in the calculated approximation are pure imaginary, and in order to find the sufficient conditions for stability, we have to evaluate a3 etc. As a result we have: Theorem
