Asymptotic integration of differential equations with large high-frequency terms (Q2455306)

The author constructs asymptotic expansions for solutions to the Cauchy problem for systems of nonlinear differential equations of order \(n \geq 2\) that contain terms oscillating at frequencies \(\omega >> 1\) and proportional to \(\omega^p\), where \(p = 1,2, \dots. [n/2]\), i.e. of the form \[ \frac{d^n x}{dt^n} = f_0 \left ( x, \frac{dx}{dt},\dots, \frac{d^kx}{dt^k},t,\omega t \right ) + \sum_{i=1}^p \omega^i f_i \left ( x, \frac{dx}{dt},\dots, \frac{d^{k-i}x}{dt^{k-i}},t,\omega t \right ) \] with initial conditions \[ x(0)=x_0, \frac{dx(0)}{dt} = x_1,\dots,\frac{d^{n-1}x(0)}{dt^{n-1}}=x_{n-1} \] and with \(t \in [0,T]\) and \(k=n-p\). The author uses the method of Strygin, a version of the method of two-scale expansion, to construct an asymptotic solution in the case \(n=2\) and \(p=1\).
