On the acyclicity of integral funnels (Q731632)

The solution set of the Cauchy problem for some point specifying the initial conditions is called the integral funnel of this point. It is known that the acyclicity of a funnel does not imply the acyclicity of sections of the funnel for a fixed time. In this paper, the authors show that the acyclicity of time sections of integral funnels implies the acyclicity of the funnels themselves. This fact simplifies the application of existence theorems for boundary-value problems to specific equations. However, no example is considered concerning this remark.
