Preserved Fulltext
The dynamical instability of many-body systems is best characterized through the time-dependent local Lyapunov spectrum ͕ j ͖, its associated comoving eigenvectors ͕␦ j ͖, and the "global" time-averaged spectrum ͕͗ j ͖͘. We study the fluctuations of the local spectra as well as the convergence rates and correlation functions associated with the ␦ vectors as functions of j and system size N. All the number dependences can be described by simple power laws. The various powers depend on the
