Some properties of isolating blocks for planar systems

From MaRDI portal





Consider the planar differential system \[ {dx\over dt}= X(x,y),\quad {dy\over dt}= Y(x,y),\tag{1} \] and the flow \(f(p, t)\) defined by (1). Let \(B\subset \mathbb{R}^2\) be an isolating block for \(f(p, t)\) defined by \textit{C. Conley} and \textit{R. Easton} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 158, 35-61 (1971; Zbl 0223.58011)]. In the present paper, some qualitative properties of trajectories inside \(B\) for (1) are obtained. In particular, it is proved that if \(Q\) is a unique critical point of (1) in the interior of \(B\), then there are no certain type of elliptic regions of \(Q\) (for the definition of elliptic regions, see \textit{A. A. Andronov}, \textit{E. A. Leontovich}, \textit{I. I. Gordon} and \textit{A. G. Maier} [Qualitative theory of second-order dynamic systems, New York, John Wiley \& Sons (1973; Zbl 0282.34022), p. 295]).
