Lyapunov stable

A fixed point $x^{*}$ is Lyapunov stable if trajectories of nearby points $x$ remain close for future time. More formally the fixed point $x^{*}$ is Lyapunov stable, if for any $\\epsilon>0$ , there is a $\\delta>0$ such that for all $t\\geq 0$ and for all $x\eq x^{*}$ it is verified

\\displaystyle d(x^{*},x)<\\delta\\Rightarrow d(x^{*},x(t))<\\epsilon.

In particular, $d(x^{*},x(0))=0$ .
