12 Ordinary Differential Equations IV

In this class,

• Questions must be answered in order asked.
• Solutions must be neat.
• You must use the given symbols.
• You must show all reasoning.
• Copying is never allowed, even when working together.

1. Given the system
   
   $$\dot {\vec x} = A \vec x \qquad A = \left(\begin{array}{cc} 0 & 5 -1 & -2 \end{array} \right)$$
   
   
   Find the general solution to this system in vector form and in terms of a fundamental matrix. Complex solutions not allowed.

2. Solve the system and initial condition
   
   $$\dot {\vec x} = A \vec x \quad \vec x(0) = \vec x_0 \qquad ... ...x_0 = \left( \begin{array}{c} 9 1 1 \end{array} \right)$$
   
   
   Give a fundamental matrix. Clean up the final $\vec x$.

3. Solve the inhomogeneous system and initial condition
   
   $$\dot {\vec x} = A \vec x + \vec g \quad \vec x(0) = \vec x... ...0 = \left( \begin{array}{c} 5 11 -2 \end{array} \right)$$
   
   
   Use variation of parameters. Clean up the final $\vec x$.

4. Consider the autonomous system
   

   $$x' = x + 3y - x^2 \sin y \qquad y' = 2x + y - x y^2$$
   
   

   Analyze this system analytically:

   1. Find the critical points. One critical point is easy. Four more critical points can be found numerically. To help you a bit, their $y$-values are $\pm1.1107$ and $\pm1.6074$.
   2. Find the matrix of derivatives of vector $\vec F$ at each of the five critical point. (By symmetry around the origin, there are only three matrices that are different.)

5. For each of the three different matrices of the previous question, solve the linearized system. (For the more complicated four points, a numerical solution is fine.) Then draw the phase plane to scale, and at each of the five stationary points, draw its eigenvectors, or $\vec u$ and $\vec v$ if complex, or also a $\vec f$ if defective, as small vectors, but with the correct angles (and in case of $\vec e$ and $\vec f$, relative lengths).
