Abstract
We consider families of systems of two-dimensional ordinary differential equations with the origin 0 as a non-hyperbolic equilibrium. For any number , we show that it is possible to choose a parameter in these equations such that the stability index is precisely . In contrast to that, for a hyperbolic equilibrium x it is known that either or . Furthermore, we discuss a system with an equilibrium that is locally unstable but globally attracting, highlighting some subtle differences between the local and non-local stability indices.
