This paper considers a three-dimensional linear nonautonomous systems. It shows that for every integer frequency parameter value, this system has a distinct type of knotted periodic solutions, which lie in a bounded region of R3. Exact explicit parametric representations of the knotted periodic solutions are given. By using these parametric representations, two series of three-dimensional flows are constructed, such that these three-dimensional autonomous systems have knotted periodic orbits in the three-dimensional phase space.

Nonautonomous systems with periodic solutions are encountered frequently in applications. In this paper, we will consider simple systems whose solutions are periodic with a known period. Their transformation under linearized collocation methods is investigated, using a technique called stroboscopic sampling, a discrete version of the well-known Poincaré map. It is shown that there is an inextricable relationship between AN stability (or BN stability) of the numerical methods and the correct qualitative behaviour of solutions.
