Picards Theorem
Theorem 1 (Picard's theorem [KF])
Let
be an open subset
of
and a continuous function
defined as
. If
and
satisfies the Lipschitz condition
in the variable
in
:
where
is a constant. Then the ordinary differential equation
defined as
with the initial condition
has a unique solution
on some interval
.
The above theorem is also named the Picard-Lindelöf theorem and can be generalized to a system of first order ordinary differential equations
Theorem 2 (generalization of Picard's theorem [KF])
Let
be an open subset of
and a continuous function
defined as
. If
and
satisfies the Lipschitz condition in the variable
in
:
where
is a constant. Then the system of ordinary differential equation defined as
with the initial condition
has a unique solution
on some interval
.
