Largest Lyapunov Exponents and Bifurcations of Stochastic Nonlinear Systems

Two commonly adopted expressions for the largest Lyapunov exponents of linearized stochastic systems are reviewed. Their features are discussed in light of bifurcation analysis and one expression is selected for evaluating the largest Lyapunov exponent of a linearized system. An independent method,...
