On asymptotic expansions of invariant manifolds. I (Q1110705)

A sum \(\phi(\theta,\epsilon)\equiv \sum^{K}_{i=0}\epsilon^ i\phi_ i(\theta)\) is called an asymptotic expansion of function \(\phi(\theta,\epsilon)\) up to \(\epsilon^ K\) if \(\lim_{\epsilon \to 0}\| \phi (\theta,\epsilon)-\phi (\theta,\epsilon)\| /\epsilon^ K=0.\) Consider the nonlinear system of equations \[ (1)\quad {\dot \theta}=\omega +p(\theta,h,\epsilon),\quad \dot h=Hh+Q(\theta,h,\epsilon) \] with a small parameter \(\epsilon \in (0,\epsilon_ 0]\). The goal of this paper is to construct an approximate invariant manifold \((M_ a)\) for system (1) such that it is an asymptotic expansion of the corresponding invariant manifold M of their system.
