Abstract. Sometimes so-called cone invariance and squeezing properties are used to show the existence of inertial manifolds for evolution equations. We propose and motivate a modification of these properties for semiflows. We show that the cone invariance and modified squeezing properties together with a coercivity assumption are sufficient for a general, continuous semiflow to have an inertial manifold with exponential tracking property.
