SynopsisThe equation to be considered iswhere pi(t), 0≦i≦n, and q(t) are continuous and positive on some half-line [a, ∞). It is known that (*) always has “strictly monotone” nonoscillatory solutions defined on [a, ∞), so that of particular interest is the extreme situation in which such strictly monotone solutions are the only possible nonoscillatory solutions of (*). In this paper sufficient conditions are given for this situation to hold for (*). The structure of the solution space of (*) is also studied.

In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour of the following systems of ordinary differential equations:where the identically zero function is a solution of (N) i.e. f(t, 0)=0 for all time t. Suppose one knows that all the solutions of (N) which start near zero remain near zero for all future time or even that they approach zero as time increases. For the perturbed systems (P) and (P1) the above property concerning the solutions near zero may or may not remain true. A more precise formulation of this problem is as follows: if zero is stable or asymptotically stable for (N), and if the functions g(t, x) and h(t, x) are small in some sense, give conditions on f(t, x) so that zero is (eventually) stable or asymptotically stable for (P) and (P1).

Let bex′=f(t,x) a system of ordinary differential equations, with initial conditionsx(a) =s, which is integrated numerically by a finite difference method of orderpand constant steph.To estimate the truncation and round-off errors accumulated during the numerical process it is established a method based on the current theory of the asymptotic behaviour (whenh→0) of errors. This method should avoid the main difficulties that arise when the results of the theory must be applied to practical cases. The method has been successfully tested and applied to estimate the errors accumulated in a numerical computation of planetary perturbations on the orbit of a comet.
