On the small--amplitude approximation to the differential equation x¨+(1+x˙2)x=0\ddot{x}+(1+\dot{x}^{2})x=0

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We obtain the radius of convergence of the small--amplitude approximation to the period of the nonlinear oscillator x¨+(1+x˙2)x=0\ddot{x}+(1+\dot{x}^{2})x=0 with the initial conditions x(0)=Ax(0)=A and x˙(0)=0\dot{x}(0)=0 and show that the inverted perturbation series appears to converge smoothly from below.
