  2. Equilibrium point (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_point...

    That is to say, by evaluating the Jacobian matrix at each of the equilibrium points of the system, and then finding the resulting eigenvalues, the equilibria can be categorized. Then the behavior of the system in the neighborhood of each equilibrium point can be qualitatively determined, (or even quantitatively determined, in some instances ...

  3. Stability theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_theory

    The simplest kind of an orbit is a fixed point, or an equilibrium. If a mechanical system is in a stable equilibrium state then a small push will result in a localized motion, for example, small oscillations as in the case of a pendulum. In a system with damping, a stable equilibrium state is moreover asymptotically stable. On the other hand ...

  4. Linear dynamical system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_dynamical_system

    Linear dynamical systems can be solved exactly, in contrast to most nonlinear ones. Occasionally, a nonlinear system can be solved exactly by a change of variables to a linear system. Moreover, the solutions of (almost) any nonlinear system can be well-approximated by an equivalent linear system near its fixed points. Hence, understanding ...

  5. Linear stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_stability

    In mathematics, in the theory of differential equations and dynamical systems, a particular stationary or quasistationary solution to a nonlinear system is called linearly unstable if the linearization of the equation at this solution has the form / =, where r is the perturbation to the steady state, A is a linear operator whose spectrum contains eigenvalues with positive real part.

  6. Autonomous system (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system...

    Some sink, source or node are equilibrium points. 2-dimensional case refers to Phase plane. In mathematics, an autonomous system or autonomous differential equation is a system of ordinary differential equations which does not explicitly depend on the independent variable. When the variable is time, they are also called time-invariant systems.

  8. Dynamical systems theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamical_systems_theory

    The dynamical system concept is a mathematical formalization for any fixed "rule" that describes the time dependence of a point's position in its ambient space. Examples include the mathematical models that describe the swinging of a clock pendulum, the flow of water in a pipe, and the number of fish each spring in a lake.
