Unstable manifold computation of a nonlinear 2D autonomous dynamical system

63 Views Asked by At

I have the following 2D-ODEs:

$\frac{dx_1}{dt}=k_1-(k_2+k_3)x_1+k_4x_2-k_5x_1x_2^2$

$\frac{dx_2}{dt}=k_3x_1-(k_4+k_6)x_2+k_5x_1x_2^2$

where $k_1=2.9872232$, $k_2=1$, $k_3=1$, $k_4=12.626548$, $k_5=5.6433885$, and $k_6=0.85914091$.

The nonlinear 2D system supports three fixed points:

$P_1=[1, 2.3130],~\lambda_1=-18.8056,~\lambda_2=-0.753234$ (stable node), $P_2=[2.7183, 0.3130],~\lambda_1=-0.951156,~\lambda_2=-5.47861$ (stable node) $P_3=[2.2562, 0.8509],~\lambda_1=-1.16758,~\lambda_2=3.27506$ (unstable, saddle)

I would like to approximate the unstable and stable manifolds of the saddle. Do you have any advice/book/sheet notes in order to approximate such unstable manifold?

Thanks for your attention.

Regards!
