Diffeomorphism and hyperbolic points

1k Views Asked by At

Suppose $f$ is a diffeomorphism.Prove that all hyperbolic periodic points are isolated.

I tried using the mean value theorem using two diferent periodic points (assuming the periodic points arent isolated) Reaching that exist $x_0$ between the periodic points with $f'(x_0)=1$
But thats the way? I only want a hint or something Thanks
