Singular perturbed problems in ordinary differential equations (Q1191833): Difference between revisions

The author uses his recent version of the generalized implicit theorem of Nash and Moser to solve perturbed periodic problems for equations like (1) \(u'+e\cdot f(u,u',u'',u''',t)=0\), in which perturbations contain two order higher derivatives than unperturbed equations. A typical result is: If a smooth \(f\) is \(2\pi\)-periodic in \(t\), \(\partial f/\partial u'''\leq 0\) and if there exist numbers \(a>b\) such that \[ \int_ 0^{2\pi}f(a,0,0,0,t)dt\cdot\int_ 0^{2\pi}f(b,0,0,0,t)dt<0, \] then (1) possesses at least one \(2\pi\)-periodic solution, for each small constant \(\varepsilon>0\). Generalizations for higher-dimensional systems are given as well.
