On geometric detection of periodic solutions and chaotic dynamics

In this note we sketch some results concerning a geometric method for periodic solutions of non-autonomous time-periodic differential equations. We give the definition of isolating chain and we provide a theorem on the existence of periodic solutions inside isolating chains. We recall some results o...

Description
Summary:In this note we sketch some results concerning a geometric method for periodic solutions of non-autonomous time-periodic differential equations. We give the definition of isolating chain and we provide a theorem on the existence of periodic solutions inside isolating chains. We recall some results on existence of chaotic dynamics which can be proved by the theorem. We provide several examples of equations in which the presented theorems can be applied.
