A new approach for demonstrating the global stability of ordinary differential equations is given. It is shown that if the curvature of solutions is bounded on some set, then any nonconstant orbits that remain in the set, must contain points that lie some minimum distance apart from each other. This is used to establish a negative-criterion for periodic orbits. This is extended to give a method of proving an equilibrium to be globally stable. The approach can also be used to rule out the sudden appearance of large-amplitude periodic orbits.

In this paper, we propose a new approach for obtaining explicit analytical approximations to the homoclinic or heteroclinic solutions of a general class of strongly nonlinear ordinary differential equations describing conservative singledegree-of-freedom systems. Through a simple and explicit change of the independent variable that we introduce, these equations are transformed to others for which the original homoclinic or heteroclinic solutions are mapped into periodic solutions that satisfy some boundary conditions. Recent simplified methods of harmonic balance can then be exploited to construct highly accurate analytic approximations to these solutions. Here, we adopt the combination of Newton linearization with the harmonic balance to construct the approximates in incremental steps, thereby proposing both appropriate initial approximates and increments that together satisfy the required boundary conditions. Three examples including a septic Duffing oscillator, a controlled mechanical pendulum and a perturbed KdV equations are presented to illustrate the great accuracy and simplicity of the new approach.

AbstractThe paper deals with periodic systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). A new approach to the investigation of variations of multipliers under perturbations is suggested. It enables us to establish explicit conditions for the stability and instability of perturbed systems.

An implementable on-line approach to solve the nonlinear filtering equation for a partially observed system in which both the state and observation processes are jump processes is presented. By making use of the special structure of jump processes, the new method allows us to obtain the solution of the resulting nonlinear filtering equation from solving a linear system of ordinary differential equations and a linear system of algebraic equations recursively and via a simple normalization procedure.

Abstract Neutral differential equations are one of the most important extensions of classical ordinary differential equations and aim to give a better explanation for modeling phenomena where ordinary differential equations are insufficient. Naturally, all the questions studied in the scope of ordinary differential equations attracted the attention also for neutral differential equations. In this paper we study the oscillatory properties of second order half-linear neutral differential equations. We present oscillation criteria derived using a new approach. This approach allows us to reduce common restrictions on the deviations in arguments which are present in the currently known results of this type.
