Canards existence in Memristor's circuits (Q2628041): Difference between revisions

The paper starts with a comprehensive overview of the history and current state in the discovering of so-called ``canard solutions'' in the singularly perturbed dynamical systems with one fast variable. A canard solution is so-named because it is an orbit, solving a set of singularly perturbed ordinary differential equations that passes between slow and fast time scales in such a way as to create a novel duck-like shape [\textit{E. Benoit} et al., Collect. Math. 32, 37--119 (1981; Zbl 0529.34046)]. The main aim of paper is to propose a method enabling to state a unique ``generic'' criterion for the existence of canard solutions for three- and four-dimensional singularly perturbed dynamical systems of the form \[ \dot x=f(x,y), \quad \varepsilon \dot y=g(x,y) \] with one fast variable, i.e. \(y\in\mathbb{R},\) in the folded saddle case which is based on the stability conditions (Routh-Hurwitz' theorem) deduced from a well-known property of linear algebra. This alternative method based on the stability of folded singularities of the normalized slow dynamics is presented in Sections~4 and 5. Existence of canard solution for the third- and fourth-order memristor-based canonical Chua's circuit is established according to this method in Sections~6 and 7.
