Elements of Lyapunov stability theory for ordinary differential equations (ODE) are studied: standard, asymptotic and exponential stability, orbital stability, attractors and chaos, stability of linear ODE. Some applications of stability theory to the mechanics of particles and rigid bodies are considered.
