Abstract: In this paper we find conditions which guarantee that a given flow $Phi$ on a compact metric space $X$ admits a Lyapunov one-form $omega$ lying in a prescribed v{C}ech cohomology class $xiincheck{H}^1(X;R)$. These conditions are formulated in terms of the restriction of $xi$ to the chain recurrent set of $Phi$. The result of the paper may be viewed as a generalization of a well-known theorem of C. Conley about the existence of Lyapunov functions.
