Lie transforms applied to a nonlinear parametric excitation problem

From MaRDI portal





We use Lie transforms to approximate the Poincaré map of a weakly nonlinear periodic perturbation of the simple harmonic oscillator in order to study the stability of the trivial solution. Resonant frequencies, corresponding to non-removalbe terms in the differential equation, are identified through \(O(\epsilon^ 2)\). We show that detuning from resonance stabilizes the trivial solution when the perturbation contains no linear periodic terms. Finally, we study a typical bifurcation between two lowest-order resonant frequencies. A MACSYMA program which performs the Lie transform algorithm to arbitrary order is presented in the Appendix with a sample run.
