We consider the Cauchy problem for a first-order differentialequation in a Banach space. The equation contains a small parameter in the highest derivative and a Fredholm operator perturbed by an operator addition on the right-hand side. Systems with small parameter in the highest derivative describe the motion of a viscous flow, the behavior of thin and flexible plates and shells, the process of a supersonic viscous gas flow around a blunt body, etc. The presence of a boundary layer phenomenon is revealed; in this case, even a small additive has a strong influence on the behavior of the solution. Asymptotic expansion of the solution in powers of small parameter is constructed by means of the Vasil’yeva- Vishik-Lyusternik method. Asymptotic property of the expansion is proved. To construct the regular part of the expansion, the equation decomposition method is used. It is consisted in a step-by-step transition to similar problems of decreasing dimensions.

AbstractAn elementary approach, based on a systematic use of lower and upper solutions, is employed to detect the qualitative properties of solutions of first order scalar periodic ordinary differential equations. This study is carried out in the Carathéodory setting, avoiding any uniqueness assumption, in the future or in the past, for the Cauchy problem. Various classical and recent results are recovered and generalized.
