Invariant manifolds and alternative approaches to reductive perturbation theory: dissipative systems

This paper is concerned with the limiting process known as Reductive Perturbation Theory. A new view of both conventional reductive perturbation theory and the higher order theory of Kodama is presented for a general class of dissipative systems. An alternative Iterative approach to the determinatio...

Description
Summary:This paper is concerned with the limiting process known as Reductive Perturbation Theory. A new view of both conventional reductive perturbation theory and the higher order theory of Kodama is presented for a general class of dissipative systems. An alternative Iterative approach to the determination of higher order corrections is outlined.
