Abstract: A linear system $dotx=Ax$, $Ainmathbb{R}^{nimesn}$, $xinmathbb{R}^n$, with $mathrmrkA=n-1$, has a one-dimensional center manifold $E^c=vinmathbb{R}^n:Av=0$. If a differential equation $dotx=f(x)$ has a one-dimensional center manifold $W^c$ at an equilibrium $x^{\ast }$ then $E^c$ is tangential to $W^c$ with $A=Df(x^{\ast })$ and for stability of $W^c$ it is necessary that $A$ has no spectrum in $mathbb{C}^{+}$, i.e. if $A$ is symmetric, it has to be negative semi-definite. We establish a graph theoretical approach to characterize semi-definiteness. Using spanning trees for the graph corresponding to $A$, we formulate meso-scale conditions with certain principal minors of $A$ which are necessary for semi-definiteness. We illustrate these results by the example of the Kuramoto model of coupled oscillators.
