Asymptotic and chaotic solutions of a singularly perturbed Nagumo-type equation

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We deal with the singularly perturbed Nagumo-type equation ε2u′′+u(1−u)(u−a(s))=0, ε^2 u'' + u(1-u)(u-a(s)) = 0, where ε>0ε> 0 is a real parameter and a:R→Ra: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} is a piecewise constant function satisfying 0<a(s)<10 < a(s) < 1 for all ss. We prove the existence of chaotic, homoclinic and heteroclinic solutions, when εε is small enough. We use a dynamical systems approach, based on the Stretching Along Paths method and on the Conley-Wazewski's method.
