This is in drastic contrast with the planar case, where canards usually occur in two-parametric families. Here we treat systems with a convex slow curve. In this case there is a set of parameter values accumulating to zero for which the system has exactly one attracting and one repelling canard cycle. The basin of the attracting cycle is almost the whole torus.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-10-10T02:09:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "70K70", "37G15" ], "keywords": [ "uniqueness", "generic slow-fast systems", "arbitrary small values", "convex slow curve", "canards usually occur" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0910.1888S" } } }
