Odd index of the amended potential implies linear instability

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: For a relative equilibrium of a symmetric simple mechanical system, if the Morse index of the corresponding amended potential is odd, whether the nullity is zero or not, it is linearly unstable. We also provide a sufficient condition for spectral instability.
