Constant parameters
Growth rates r1, r2 In both plots, species 2 has slightly higher population initially than
Carrying capacities K1, K2 species 1. So why does species 1 dominate in the plot on the left, and
Competition coefficients b12, b21 species 2 dominate in the plot on the right?

Non-dimensionalize dynamics with x1 = K 1 , x2 = K2 Is it possible for both species to co-exist in perpetuity?
How do birth / death rates and competition coefficients aect which
x 1 = x1(1 x1 1x2) species dominates?

Mathematical Preliminaries Mathematical Preliminaries
Definition 1. A point x 2 Rn is an equilibrium point of x = f (x) i Solution to the unforced LTI system x = Ax with initial condition
f (x) = 0. x(t0) = x0 is straightforward.
ml2 = mgl sin (7) Solution to the the nonlinear system x = f (t, x) with initial condition
x(t0) = x0:
Let x = , then x = .
g
l sin x(t) s.t. x(t)
= f (t, x(t)) and x(t0) = x0 (9)

Hence x =

0 Under what conditions do solutions exist uniquely?
Equilibria are key to much of nonlinear systems analysis. Local existence and uniqueness theorem
Lipschitz continuity
In addition, analytic solutions to nonlinear systems rarely exist!

Phase-plane plots of planar second-order LTI systems x = Ax, x 2 R2 Theorem 1. [Hartman-Grobman] If the eigenvalues of the Jacobian
Df = @f
@x are not on the j!-axis, then there exists a continuous map
x=x
What happens when one or both eigenvalues have 0 real part? h, with continuous inverse
What happens when eigenvalues are repeated?
h : B(x, ) ! Rn (12)
