About this title

Synopsis

Although this systematic study of autonomous systems begins with a thorough treatment of linear systems, the main emphasis is on local and global behavior of nonlinear systems. The main purpose of this revised edition is to introduce students to the qualitative and geometric theory of ordinary differential equations as well as serving as a reference book for mathematicians researching dynamical systems. Readers will find that, except for certain topics of current mathematical research, such as the number of limit cycles and the nature of attracting sets of dynamical systems, the global qualitative theory of a nonlinear dynamical system leads to an understanding of the solution set of the nonlinear system to rival that which we have of linear flows.

Review

Reviews from the first edition:

“...The text succeeds admiraby ... Examples abound, figures are used to advantage, and a reasonable balance is maintained between what is proved in detail and what is asserted with supporting references ... Each section closes with a set of problems, many of which are quite interesting and round out the text material ... this book is to be highly recommended both for use as a text, and for professionals in other fields wanting to gain insight into modern aspects of the geometric theory of continuous (i.e., not discrete) dynamical systems.” MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS
