Abstract. The discrete version of the Hamiltonian system $$ \dot{x}=\lambda JH(t)x $$ with $H(t)=H^*(t)=H(t+T)$ is considered. Following the line of M.G. Krein the stability zones with respect to the parameter $\lambda$ are considered: the side zones have to be estimated from multiplier traffic rules while the central stability zone from the discrete version of the skew - periodic boundary value problem.
