  5. There are variations of the concept of a flow, e.g., where R is replaced by a topological group T, or a suitable subset S R, open in R x M. Also, I am considering only continuous systems here, not discrete ones. For something of the flavor of global dynamics, see Jacob Palis, Jr., and Wellington de Melo, Geometric Theory of Dynamical Systems (Springer, New York, 1982).
