Consider the linear system (27). a. Since (0, 0) is an asymptotically stable critical point, show that a11 +a22 < 0 and a11a22 a12a21 > 0. (See of Section 9.1.) b. Construct a Liapunov function V( x, y) = Ax2+Bxy+Cy2 such that V is positive definite and V is negative definite. One way to ensure that V is negative definite is to choose A, B, and C so that V ( x, y) = x2 y2. Show that this leads to the result A = a2 21 + a2 22 + (a11a22 a12a21) 2 , B = a12a22 + a11a21 , C = a2 11 + a2 12 + (a11a22 a12a21) 2 , where = (a11 + a22)(a11a22 a12a21). c. Using the result of part a, show that A > 0, and then show (several steps of algebra are required) that 4AC B2 = _a2 11 + a2 12 + a2 21 + a2 22 _(a11a22 a12a21) + 2(a11a22 a12a21)2 2 > 0. Thus, by Theorem 9.6.4, V is positive definite.
