A dynamical system is generally understood first via linear stability analysis, which reduces to the diagonalization of a matrix, and then by studying the effects of the nonlinear terms. Surprisingly, in many cases of interest, the nonlinear analysis can also be reduced to the diagonalization of a matrix (similar to the linear stability matrix) whose eigenvalues yield nonlinear amplitudes. This provides a complementary alternative to the usual unfolding of codimension-two points or to the classification of dynamical systems by symmetry. Examples of such systems can be found in binary fluid convection and cylindrical or rotating convection.
