Frontiers of Invariant Manifold Approximation in Multiple-Timescale Dynamics

Frontiers of Invariant Manifold Approximation in Multiple-Timescale Dynamics

Ian Lizarraga from the School of Mathematics and Statistics, The University of Sydney, (ian.lizarraga (at) sydney.edu.au) describes how to use the computational singular perturbation (CSP) method and the parametrization method to compute approximations to invariant manifolds. He also shows how the parametrization method can be adapted to problems with more than two time scales.
