Abstract: In a Hilbert space mathcalH, we study the asymptotic behaviour, as time variable t goes to +infty, of nonautonomous gradient-like dynamical systems involving inertia and multiscale features. Given mathcalH a general Hilbert space, Phi:mathcalHightarrowmathbbR and Psi:mathcalHightarrowmathbbR two convex differentiable functions, gamma a positive damping parameter, and epsilon(t) a function of t which tends to zero as t goes to +infty, we consider the second-order differential equation ddot{x}(t) + gamma dot{x}(t) +

abla Phi (x(t)) + epsilon (t)

abla Psi (x(t)) = 0. This system models the emergence of various collective behaviors in game theory, as well as the asymptotic control of coupled nonlinear oscillators. Assuming that epsilon(t) tends to zero moderately slowly as t goes to infinity, we show that the trajectories converge weakly in mathcalH. The limiting equilibria are solutions of the hierarchical minimization problem which consists in minimizing Psi over the set C of minimizers of Phi. As key assumptions, we suppose that int0+inftyepsilon(t)dt=+infty and that, for every p belonging to a convex cone mathcalC depending on the data Phi and Psi int_{0}^{+infty} left[Phi^* left(epsilon (t)p ight) -sigma_C left(epsilon (t)p ight) ight]dt < + infty where Phi* is the Fenchel conjugate of Phi, and sigmaC is the support function of C. An application is given to coupled oscillators.
