To define a hyperbolic set, we first recall the situation near a hyperbolic fixed point. Basically, there were two ingredients to hyperbolicity, a rate of expansion or contraction, given by the eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix at the point, and a direction of expansion or contraction, given by the associated eigenvector. 2, record 3, English, - hyperbolicity
