Proof: we prove the necessity of (iii), the necessity of (i) and (ii)
having been explained above. rf xo is an equilibrium point of i=a(x)

there exists a Liapunov function v such that
v is positive for xlxo,

By evaluating at time t=1 the soluti-on of
x=a(x)+{ which passes
through x at t=0, we get a conrinuous map of {xlr(*) <oi into itself.
Applying the Lefschetz fixed point formula we see that this urap has a
fixed point which musr be an equilibrium poinr of i = a(x) + 6.
Alternatively, we could use a vers'on of the poincar5-Hopf Theoren
which applies to manifolds with boundary (see [7], page 41) to finish
off the proof . This, in turn, irylies that we can solve a(x) = 6

Since B(x,y) is second order and vanishes wt^en x does o<xrx>
dominates the second term and by virtue of the finite gain hypothesis,
the left-hand side is negative definite for a sufficiently large.
Asymptotic stability then follows from standard Liapunov arguments.
