Abstract

The standard proof of the Grobman-Hartman linearization theorem for a flow at a hyperbolic rest point proceeds by first establishing the analogous result for hyperbolic fixed points of local diffeomorphisms. In this exposition we present a simple direct proof that avoids the discrete case altogether. We give new proofs for Hartman's smoothness results: A \({\cal C}^2\) flow is \({\cal C}^1\) linearizable at a hyperbolic sink, and a \({\cal C}^2\) flow in the plane is \({\cal C}^1\) linearizable at a hyperbolic rest point. Also, we formulate and prove some new results on smooth linearization for special classes of quasi-linear vector fields where either the nonlinear part is restricted or additional conditions on the spectrum of the linear part (not related to resonance conditions) are imposed.
