Abstract
The distribution of local Lyapunov exponents is used to analyze power spectra of conservative dynamical systems. It is shown that sharp and broad peaks in the spectra can be related to well defined regions in phase space, associated with algebraic and exponential stretching of distances, respectively.Keywords
