Lawrence Perko Northern Arizona University SOLUTIONS MANUAL for Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems Third EditionPREFACE ‘This set of problem solutions for the 3rd edition of the author's book Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems is intended as an aid for students working on the problem sets that appear at the end of each section in the book. Most of the details necessary to obtain the solutions, along with the solutions themselves, are given for all of the problems in the book. Those solutions not found in the main body of the solutions manual can be found in the appendix at the end of the ‘manual. Any additions, corrections or innovative methods of solution should be sent directly to the author, Lawrence Perko, Department of Mathematics, Northem Arizona University, Flagstaff, Arizona 86011 or to Lawrence Perko@NAU.EDU. The author would like to take this opportunity to thank Louella Holter for her patience and precision in typing the camera-ready copy for this solutions manual and the appendix, Also, several interesting new problems as well as a list of additions and corrections for the 3" edition of Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems have been added at the ions manual, end of the appendix in this sohCONTENTS Linear Systems Problem Set 1.1..
