Abstract: In this paper, we first develope the concept of Lyapunov graph to weighted Lyapunov graph (abbreviated as WLG) for nonsingular Morse-Smale flows (abbreviated as NMS flows) on $S^3$. WLG is quite sensitive to NMS flows on $S^3$. For instance, WLG detect the indexed links of NMS flows. Then we use WLG and some other tools to describe nonsingular Morse-Smale flows without heteroclinic trajectories connecting saddle orbits (abbreviated as depth $0$ NMS flows). It mainly contains the following several directions: �egin{enumerate} item we use WLG to list depth $0$ NMS flows on $S^3$; item with the help of WLG, comparing with Wada's algorithm, we provide a direct description about the (indexed) link of depth $0$ NMS flows; item to overcome the weakness that WLG can't decide topologically equivalent class, we give a simplified Umanskii Theorem to decide when two depth $0$ NMS flows on $S^3$ are topological equivalence; item under these theories, we classify (up to topological equivalence) all depth 0 NMS flows on $S^3$ with periodic orbits number no more than 4. end{enumerate}

Review text

A smooth flow on a manifold is called a \textit{nonsingular Morse Smale flow} if (1) the non-wandering set is a union of finitely many periodic orbits without singularities, (2) the Poincaré map of each periodic orbit is hyperbolic, and (3) the stable and unstable manifolds of each periodic orbit intersect transversely. Moreover, such a flow is said to have \textit{behavior 0} if there are no heteroclinic trajectories connecting saddle orbits, that is, no trajectory lies in the the unstable manifold of one periodic orbit and in the stable manifold of another. The author defines a combinatorial object called the \textit{weighted Lyapunov graph} for a given nonsingular Morse-Smale flow on a 3-manifold and uses this graph to study several aspects of nonsingular Morse-Smale flows having behavior 0 on the 3-dimensional sphere \(S^3\). In particular, he classifies up to topological equivalence the behavior 0 nonsingular Morse-Smale flows on \(S^3\) with at most 4 periodic orbits.
