Entrainment of frequency in singularly perturbed systems (Q674819)

Consider the periodically perturbed differential system (*) \(dx/dt= f(x)+\mu g(t,\mu)\) under the assumption that the unperturbed autonomous system \(dx/dt =f(x)\) has a periodic solution \(\overline x(t)\) with period \(T\). The perturbation \(g\) is periodic in \(t\) with period \(T(\mu)\) where \(T(0)=T\). The author derives a lot of conditions such that (*) has at least one \(T(\mu)\)-periodic solution near \(\overline x(t)\) for small \(\mu\), she also studies the problem that (*) has at least one \(T(\mu)\)-periodic solution for \(\mu\in [0,1]\) depending continuously on \(\mu\). Finally, the author shows that a class of singularly perturbed equations in Liénard form having a relaxational oscillation satisfies the derived conditions.
