Index-2 differential-algebraic equations (Q1117371): Difference between revisions

A class of general nontransferable differential-algebraic equations which contains all linear differential-algebraic equations having the global index 2 in the definition of Gear and Petzold or being tractable with index 2 in the sense of Griepentrog and März as well as nonlinear index-2 equations in the understanding of Brenan, Gear, Petzold and further authors is characterized by a uniform matrix criterion. Existence and uniqueness statements are proved.
