Description
Springer Phase Portraits Of Planar Quadratic Systems by John Reyn
This book attempts to give a presentation of the advance of our knowledge of phase portraits of quadratic systems, paying special attention to the historical development of the subject. This the only book that organizes the portraits into classes, using the notions of finite and infinite multiplicity and finite and infinite index. Classifications of phase portraits for various classes are given using the well-known methods of phase plane analysis._x000D_ _x000D_
