Steepness is a geometric property which, together with complex-analyticity, is needed in order to insure stability of a near-integrable hamiltonian system over exponentially long times. Following a strategy developed by Nekhoro-shev, we construct sufficient algebraic conditions for steepness for a given function that involve algebraic equations on its derivatives up to order five. The underlying analysis suggests some interesting considerations on the gener-icity of steepness and represents a first step towards the construction of sufficient conditions for steepness involving the derivatives of the studied function up to an arbitrary order.
