On the leading correction of the Thomas-Fermi model: Lower bound.
In the paper, we give an existence theorem of periodic solution for Liénard equation , . As a result, we estimate the amplitude (maximal -value) of the limit cycle of the van der Pol equation , from above by for every . The result is an improvement of the author’s previous estimation .
Our aim in this paper is to obtain sufficient conditions under which for every there exists a solution of the functional differential equation such that .
In this paper we study the Lyapunov exponent for the one-dimensional Schrödinger operator with a quasi-periodic potential. Let be the set of frequency vectors whose components are rationally independent. Let , and consider the complement in of the set where exponential dichotomy holds. We show that is generic in this complement. The methods and techniques used are based on the concepts of rotation number and exponential dichotomy.
