The nonlinear terms in the system may not be smooth in a small neighborhood of the origin. The forcing function decays to zero in a very complicated but coherent way. We prove that, under suitable conditions on the forcing function, every decaying solution admits the same asymptotic expansion of a new type. This expansion contains a new variable that allows it to be established in a closed-form, but does not affect the meaning and precision of the expansion. The new variable is introduced to overcome the unsuitability of certain terms resulted from the scaling and shifting method, which is used to deal with the lack of smoothness of the nonlinear terms, and the general form of the forcing function. Moreover, the expansion is constructed explicitly with the use of the complexification method.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-09-19T22:18:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "34D05", "34E05", "41A60" ], "keywords": [ "asymptotic expansion", "non-smooth differential equations", "time-decaying forcing functions", "nonlinear ordinary differential equations", "nonlinear terms" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 39, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
