Phase Portraits
Alright, so here's a visual aid regarding phase portraits. I included most cases. I omitted the case when one of the eigenvalues is zero. Hopefully your notes on that case are clear.

Hi Timothy, I am doing research on Control System. I use a lot of linear algebra, along with phase portrait. I am just wondering if you could recommend a book as reference for this topics. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHi, sorry for the late reply. Did you ever get the reference you were looking for? Were you looking for a reference for phase portraits or linear algebra? Also, what level of detail are you looking for? For phase portraits, I only know of the course book used for the course I TA'd: W. Boyce and R. DiPrima, Elementary Differential Equations. I recall that book also had a brief introduction to linear algebra. On the other hand, I think the undergraduate linear algebra course book used here at JHU (Linear Algebra with Applicationby Otto Bretscher) has a section on systems and phase portraits as well.
