Learning outcomes

Understanding of the main mathematical tools, local and global, analytical and geometrical, necessary for the study of mechanical and biological models based upon equations and systems of ordinary differential equations.

Program

First section:
General features of discrete and continuous dynamical systems. Linear and nonlinear systems, integrability, flow, first integrals. Equilibria and stability, eigenvalue analysis, Lyapunov function. Euler-Lagrange equations, Legendre transforms, Hamilton equations and Hamiltonian systems. Application to biological model of populations growth of logistic or Malthusian type, the Lotka-Volterra predator-prey system. Modelization and analysis of some physical phenomena.

The course is mainly based upon:
