- Geometry and Global Analysis (programme MU, NMgr-M)
- Mathematical Analysis (programme MU, NMgr-M)
- Mathematical Modelling (programme MU, NMgr-M)
- Course objectives
- This is an advanced course of the theory of ordinary differential equations. The global and qualitative characteristics of ordinary differential equations and their systems will be investigated. The main focus will be on the asymptotic behavior of the different types of solutions and their stability.
- Syllabus
- 1. Qualitative analysis of ordinary first-order differential equations (monotonicity and convexity of solutions, Barrow's formula)
2. Stability (Lyapunov function, Lyapunov exponent, stability of the linearized system)
3. Geometry of solutions of autonomous systems of differential equations in the plane (vector field index relative to the Jordan curve, Umlaufsatz, methods for finding cyclical solutions)
4. Geometry of solutions of autonomous systems of differential equations in the 3-dimensional space (Lorenz's strange attractor)
5. Qualitative analysis of solutions of non-autonomous systems of differential equations (non-unique solutions, the equation of pendulum)
- 1. Qualitative analysis of ordinary first-order differential equations (monotonicity and convexity of solutions, Barrow's formula)
