I am studying Lyapunov stability. My question is really short, and it is:
Suppose I get a derivative of a Lyapunov function of the form:
$\dot{V}(x,y)=-x^5-y^2$
what can I conclude about the stability of the system?

I don't think you can conclude anything about the stability of the system.
The derivative changes its sign in any circle around the origin, so you can only conclude that your Lyapunov function is inconclusive for your system.
