Lyapunov exponents characterize the dynamics of a system near its attractor. For the Van der Pol oscillator these are quantities for which an approximation should be at hand. Similar to the asymptotic approximation of amplitude and period, expressions are derived for the non‐zero Lyapunov exponent for both small and large parameter values.
