Abstract

In this thesis, we study the exponential growth of continuous cocycles wich take vector values on the maximal ag bundle. Such cocycles are intimately connected with the classic Lyapunov exponents, and thus the Oseledets's multiplicative ergodic theorem is proved in the context of semi-simple Lie theory. With this, it is established a connection between the Oseledets decomposition and Morse decomposition in ag bundles. In addition, considering a class of gauge transformations in the bundle, we compare the Morse decomposition obtained in each fiber with the finest Morse decomposition, obtained by Braga and San Martin (AU)
