Open trajectories.

From MaRDI portal





The following theorem is proved by using a continuation method: Consider an autonomous differential equation system \[ x'(t)= f(x(t)),\quad x(t_0)= x_0,\tag{1} \] where \(f: \mathbb{R}^n\to \mathbb{R}^n\) satisfies 1. \(f\in C^1(\mathbb{R}^n)\); 2. There is a constant \(k\) such that \(\| f(x)\|< k\) when \(x(\cdot)\) is a solution to problem (1); 3. There is a \(j\in 1,\dots, n\), such that \(f_j(x)\) has constant positive or negative sign when \(x(\cdot)\) is a solution to (1). Then the initial value problem (1) has exactly one open continuously differentiable trajectory \(x(\cdot)\) on \(\mathbb{R}\) for each initial value \(x_0\in \mathbb{R}^n\), whose limit sets do not consist from one point.
