Bi-Lyapunov Stable Homoclinic Classes for C~1 Generic Flows

We study bi-Lyapunov stable homoclinic classes for a C~1 generic flow on a closed Riemannian manifold and prove that such a homoclinic class contains no singularity. This enables a parallel study of bi-Lyapunov stable dynamics for flows and for diffeomorphisms. For example, we can then show that a bi-Lyapunov stable homoclinic class for a C~1 generic flow is hyperbolic if and only if all periodic orbits in the class have the same stable index.
