Geometric analysis of the singularly perturbed planar fold

From MaRDI portal





The geometric approach to singular perturbation problems is based on methods from dynamical systems theory. These techniques are very succesful in the case of normally hyperbolic critical manifolds. However, in the points where the normal hyperbolicity fails, e.g., fold points or points of self-intersection of the critical manifold, the geometric theory does not apply. The authors present a method based on blow up techniques which leads to a rigorous geometric analysis of these problems. The blow up method leads to problems which can be analysed by standard methods from the theory of invariant manifolds and global bifurcations. Then the authors apply this method for analysing the dynamics and asymptotics of the planar singularly perturbed system in the neighborhood of a generic fold. A relationship between classical results and new geometric analysis is discussed. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0952.00030].
