How to calculate (numerically) the convergence path to a saddle point

97 Views Asked by At

Imagine the following dynamic system, characterized by two stable equilibria (A and B) and an internal saddle point (C) separating its two basins of attraction of A and B.

clear all
syms x y a b c d e f g h i
Fx = ax(x - 1)(d - (fx + c*(i - 1))(y - 1) + g(x - 1) + y*(fx - h + c(i - 1)))
Fy = by(y - 1)(x(h - i*(e + c - fx)) - h(x - 1) + ix(c - f*x))
par = {[a b c d e f g h i], [0.05 0.05 30 20 10 2 5 2.5 0.4]}

The phase plot for the parameters above is as follows. enter image description here

How can you calculate (possibly even numerically) the only path converging at saddle point C (the one in green)?

Thank you to anyone who will try to help me.
