Abstract. The paper studies the robustness of a general notion of trichotomy, referred to as ``nonuniform $(h,k,\mu,\nu )$-trichotomy''. This means that any sufficiently small linear perturbation of a nonuniform $(h,k,\mu,\nu )$-trichotomy has the same asymptotic behavior as the original trichotomy. This result will be obtained as a consequence of two other important results: the robustness of dichotomy and the equivalence between a trichotomy and two dichotomies.
