EQUIVALENT DEFINITIONS OF RESCALED EXPANSIVENESS

Recently, a new version of expansiveness which is closely attached to some certain weak version of hyperbolicity was given for $C^1$ vector fields as following: a $C^1$ vector field X will be called rescaling expansive on a compact invariant set ${\Lambda}$ of X if for any ${\epsilon}$ > 0 there is ${\delta}$ > 0 such that, for any $x,\;y{\in}{\Lambda}$ and any time reparametrization ${\theta}:{\mathbb{R}}{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{R}}$, if $d({\varphi}_t(x),\,{\varphi}_{{\theta}(t)}(y)){\leq}{\delta}{\parallel}X({\varphi}_t(x)){\parallel}$ for all $t{\in}{\mathbb{R}}$, then ${\varphi}_{{\theta}(t)}(y){\in}{\varphi}_{(-{\epsilon},{\epsilon})}({\varphi}_t(x))$ for all $t{\in}{\mathbb{R}}$. In this paper, some equivalent definitions for rescaled expansiveness are given.
