[1RK] Discuss the differential equation
\[ \begin{cases} y’(x)=\frac 1{y(x)-x^ 2}\\ y(0)=a \end{cases} \]for \(a≠ 0\), studying in a qualitative way the existence (local or global) of solutions, and the properties of monotonicity and convexity/concavity. 1
Show that the solution exists for all positive times.
Show that for \(a{\gt}0\) the solution does not extend to all negative times.
Difficulty:*.Show that there is a critical \(\tilde a{\lt}0\) such that, for \(\tilde a{\lt}a{\lt}0\) the solution does not extend to all negative times, while for \(a≤ \tilde a\) the solution exists for all negative times; also for \(a=\tilde a\) you have \(\lim _{x→-∞} y(x)-x^ 2=0\).
In dotted purple the line of inflections. In dashed red the parabola where the derivative of the solution is infinite. In yellowthe solutions with initial data \(y(0)=2\), \(y(0)=1\), \(y(0)=1/1000\).
Figure 9 Exercise 5. Solutions for \(a{\gt}0\) In dotted purple the line of inflections. In dashed red the parabola where the derivative of the solution is infinite. Solutions are drawn with initial data \(a=-1.4\) (”green”), \(a=-1.0188\) ”orange”)and \(a=-1.019\) (”yellow”) . Note that the latter two differ only by \(0.0002\) in their initial data (indeed they are indistinguishable in the graph for \(x{\gt}-1\)), but then for \(x{\lt}-1\) they move apart quickly, and for \(x=-2\) they are respectively \(3.25696\) and \(2.54856\), with a difference of about \(0.7\) !
