Abstract

We reprove the lambda-Lemma for finite dimensional gradient flows by generalizing the well-known contraction method proof of the local (un)stable manifold theorem. This only relies on the forward Cauchy problem. We obtain a rather quantitative description of (un)stable foliations which allows to equip each leaf with a copy of the flow on the central leaf-the local (un)stable manifold. These dynamical thickenings are key tools in our recent work (Weber in Topol Methods Nonlinear Anal, to appear. arXiv: 1410.0995). The present paper provides their construction. (AU)
