Overstability: towards a global study

From MaRDI portal





This paper deals with the existence of overstable solutions to a singularly perturbed differential equation \(\varepsilon u' = \Psi (x,u,a,\varepsilon)\) in the complex domain with a turning point \(x_0\) of order \(p\) and a \(p\)-dimensional control parameter \(a\) . The overstable solutions are a generalization of the so-called canard solutions in the complex domain and are such that they remain bounded as \(\varepsilon \rightarrow 0\) uniformly in \(x\) in a full neighborhood of \(x_0\) and tend, as \(\varepsilon \rightarrow 0\), to some slow curve \((a_0,u_0)\) satisfying \(\Psi (x,u_0(x),a_0,0)=0\) . Using some geometric conditions on the domain and a transversality condition on the parameter \(a\), the authors prove the existence of overstable solutions on a large domain and obtain some asymptotic properties such as their exponential closeness and the Gevrey character of the formal solution. Gevrey estimates for the formal series of \(a\) and some results about the truncated Laplace transform and the least term summation are obtained. The approach is based on solving some associated linear boundary value problem, uses fixed point theorem and exploits asymptotic properties of the unique solution to the linear problem in the nonlinear case.
