One fixed point has a 1-D unstable manifold, while the other has a 1-D stable manifold. The main result is that we prove the smallest distance between theupdate.cgi two manifolds is exponentially small in ε for small ε. We first prove in the limit of ε → 0<sup>+</sup>, bounded away from +∞ or -∞, both the stable and unstable manifolds asymptotes to a heteroclinic orbit for a differential equation. Then we show there exists a parameterization of the manifolds so that they differ exponentially in ε. By examining the inner region around the nearest complex singularity of the limiting solution, and using Borel analysis, we relate the constant multiplying the exponentially small term to the Stokes constant of the leading order inner equation. 2004 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1101927781 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1101927781 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
