Abstract

We show that a periodic orbit of large period of a diffeomorphism or flow either admits a dominated splitting of a prescribed strength or can be turned into a sink or a source by a $C^1$-small perturbation along the orbit. As a consequence we show that the linear Poincaré flow of a $C^1$-vector field admits a dominated splitting over any robustly transitive set.
