文摘In the paper, the author addresses the Lyapunov characteristic spectrum of an ergodic autonomous ordinary differential system on a complete riemannian manifold of finite dimension such as the d-dimensional euclidean space ? d , not necessarily compact, by Liaowise spectral theorems that give integral expressions of Lyapunov exponents. In the context of smooth linear skew-product flows with Polish driving systems, the results are still valid.
