In this paper, the parameter identification problem for system of ordinary differential equations is considered. The parameter identification problem for system of ordinary differential equations is investigated by the Dzhumabaev’s parametrization method. At first, conditions for a unique solvability of the parameter identification problem for system of ordinary differential equations are obtained in the term of fundamental matrix of system’s differential part. Further, we establish conditions for a unique solvability of the parameter identification problem for system of ordinary differential equations in the terms of initial data. Algorithm for finding of approximate solution to a unique solvability of the parameter identification problem for system of ordinary differential equations is proposed and the conditions for its convergence are setted. Results this paper can be use for investigating of various problems with parameter and control problems for system of ordinary differential equations. The approach in this paper can be apply to the parameter identification problems for partial differential equations.

AbstractThis paper investigates the relationship between a system of differential equations and the underlying geometry associated with it. The geometry of a surface determines shortest paths, or geodesics connecting nearby points, which are defined as the solutions to a pair of second-order differential equations: the Euler–Lagrange equations of the metric. We ask when the converse holds, that is, when solutions to a system of differential equations reveals an underlying geometry. Specifically, when may the solutions to a given pair of second order ordinary differential equations d2y1/dt2 = f (y, ẏ, t) and d2y2/dt2 = g(y, ẏ, t) be reparameterized by t → T(y, t) so as to give locally the geodesics of a Euclidean space? Our approach is based upon Cartan's method of equivalence. In the second part of the paper, the equivalence problem is solved for a generic pair of second order ordinary differential equations of the above form revealing the existence of 24 invariant functions.
