Homework assignments will usually be posted a week before they are due (generally on Fridays). A subset of the underlined problems will be graded; if a problem is not underlined it is recommended but need not be handed in. Solutions and point values for graded problems will be posted after assignments are collected.

Due March 11
    4.3 :   9; you may work with up to one other person on this problem, which requires you to write some Runge-Kutta code for systems. (You could start with the single differential equation version from "numerical1" in the February 4 hw set above, and try to vectorize it).

To plot the phase portraits you may use Maple or pplane...you can google an applet version (but the print command uses obsolete java so you'll probably need to print a screenshot), or use the Math Department version, which opens from a terminal window with the command "pplane &", and which has a functioning print command.

Due April 8
 Note: If you hand this homework in after noon on Friday this week, give it to Paula Tooman and the front desk of the Math Department office JWB 233, before 5:00 p.m. Do not slide hw under my office door after noon, as I will be away after then.
6.1   5, 8, 11, 15, 20, 24; use pplane to visualize your work in this section, as the directions indicate. However, you don't need to hand in any pplane hardcopies from this section.
6.2   5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 14, 15, 19, 27, 30. On 19, 27, use pplane to find and classify the other equilibrium solutions besides the origin, and print out and hand in the phase portrait justification (with sample solution trajectories). (For fun, you may wish to linearize about these other equilibria, to see how your pplane picture near the equilibrum corresponds to the solutions to the linearized system of DEs.)
