Does this system have an analytical solution?

103 Views Asked by At

I am dealing with the system $$\begin{cases}y'(x)=y(x)(1-z(x))\\ z'(x)=y(x)-z(x)\end{cases}$$

Maybe there is an analytical solution?

I write $e^x(z'+z)=e^xy$, so $$z=e^{-x}\int_0^x e^t y(t) dt,$$ what leads to $$y'(x)=y(x)\left(1-e^{-x}\int_0^x e^t y(t) dt\right),$$ or $$y'(x)=y(x)\left(1-\int_0^x e^{-(x-t)} y(t) dt\right),$$

Some help?

Some clue about the maximum and minimum points?

EDIT $$y=z′+z \\ y′=z′′+z′ \\ z′′+z′=(z′+z)(1−z)=z′−zz′+z−z^2 \\ z′′=−zz′−z^2+z.$$
