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.

A method for analyzing the existence of a multidimensional torus for certain systems of ordinary differential equations is proposed. Using this method, the existence of a multidimensional torus in one of such systems is analyzed. This system is a mathematical model of the dynamics of interacting structures within the drift hydrodynamical systems. The behavior of trajectories on the multidimensional torus is numerically investigated. The existence of two- and three-dimensional tori as well as strange attractors are considered.

SynopsisThe Poincaré-Bendixson theorem, concerning the existence of periodic orbits of plane autonomous systems, is extended to higher order systems under certain conditions. Under similar conditions, a complementary theorem on the existence of recurrent orbits is also proved. For the feedback control equation, these conditions are reduced to a form which can be easily verified in practice.

AbstractThis paper is devoted to the study of persistence of forced periodic solutions for impact systems from single periodic solutions of unperturbed impact equations. An example of planar discontinuous ordinary differential equations is given to illustrate the theory.
