NORMAL FORMS OF THE DEGENERATE AUTONOMOUS DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH THE MAXIMAL JORDAN CHAIN AND SIMPLE APPLICATIONS

Abstract

Degenerate dierential equations, as part of the dierential-algebraic equations, the last few decades cause increasing interest among researchers, both because of the attractiveness of the considered theoretical questions, and by virtue of their applications. Currently, advanced methods developed in this area are used for system modelling and analysis of electrical and electronic circuits, chemical reaction simulations, optimization theory and automatic control, and many other areas. In this paper, the theory of normal forms of dierential equations, originated in the works of Poincare and recently developed in the works of Arnold and his school, adapted to the simplest case of a degenerate dierential equations. For this purpose we are using technique of Jordan chains, which was widely used in various problems of bifurcation theory. We study the normal forms of degenerate dierential equations in the case of the existence of the maximal Jordan chain. Two and three dimensional spaces are studied in detail. Normal forms are the simplest representatives of the degenerate dierential equations, which are equivalent to more complex ones. Therefore, normal forms should be considered as a model type of degenerate dierential equations
