Let us consider a system of differential equations of the form x′ = X(x, ε), (1) where x = (x1, x2, . . . , xn) ∈ Rn, ε > 0 is a sufficiently small parameter. Suppose that the unpertubed system x′ = X(x, 0), (2) has an invariant torus. The classical problem arising here is to find out what we can say about the invariant manifold of the pertubed system? The main tool of investigation of the above problem was the method of integral mapi- folds of nonlinear mechanics by Krylov – Bogolyubov – Mitropolskiy, the method of Levinson – Diliberto and others. Later, by using of the method of Green function, A. M. Samoilenko [1] obtained new results on the theory of invariant torus. The method of Samoilenko was extended to the other lasses of equations by Yu. V. Teplinskiy, D. I. Martynyuk, M. I. Ilolov [2 – 5] and others. We use this approach in a practically interesting case when the dimension of the given space may be reduced. We shall consider a system of equations of the form y′ = Y (y, z, ε), (3) z′ = Z(y, z, ε), where y = (y1, y2, . . . , ym), z = (z1, z2, . . . , zk) are vectors in the Euclidean space Rn = Rm ⊕ ⊕Rk, the parameter ε > 0 is a sufficiently small. c© A. Elnazarov, 2005 468 ISSN 1562-3076. Нелiнiйнi коливання, 2005, т . 8, N◦ 4 ON INVARIANT TORUS OF WEEKLY CONNECTED SYSTEMS OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS 469 Rewrite the system (3) to the following form: y′ = Y0(y) + Y1(y, z, ε), (4) z′ = Z0(z) + Z1(z, y, ε), where Y0(y) = Y (y, 0, 0), Z0(z) = Z(z, 0, 0), Y1(y, z, ε) = Y (y, z, ε) − Y0(y), Z1(z, y, ε) = = Z(z, y, ε)− Z0(z). Definition 1. A system of differential equations of the form (3) is called weakly connected if for ε = 0 we obtain two independent systems, i.e., y′ = Y0(y), (5) z′ = Z0(z). (6) Let us give some examples of weakly connected systems of differential equations. Consider weakly connected oscillators of the form ẍi + Qi(xi) = εqi(t, x1, ẋ1, . . . , xN , ẋN ; ε), i = 1, 2, . . . , N, (7) where ε is a sufficiently small parameter and qi are continuous periodic functions of t. This system was investigated by L. D. Akulenko [6]. He constructed the stationary resonance rotating- oscillating solutions of this system on infinite long period of time. In [7] Yu. A. Mitropolsky and A. M. Samoilenko considered the system of the type d2x dt2 + λ2x = εf ( x, dx dt ) , where x = (x1, x2, . . . , xn), λ2 = diag (λ2 1, λ 2 2, . . . , λ 2 n), λj ≥ 0 (j = 1, n), f = (f1, f2, . . . , fn) are polynomial function of its variables less than of order N ; ε is a sufficiently small parameter. They obtained results concerning the problems of existence, exponential stability and exponenti- al dichotomy of the invariant torus in the resonance and nonresonance case. Weakly connected networks of quasiperiodic oscillators of the form Ẋi = Fi(Xi) + εGi(X1, X2, . . . , Xn, ε), Xi ∈ Rm, i = 1, 2, . . . , n, ε � 1, were considered by E. M. Izhikevich [8], who proved that this system csn be transformed into a phase (canonical) model, θ̇i = Ωi + εhi(θ1, θ2, . . . , θn, ε), i = 1, . . . , n, by a continuous, possibly noninvertible change of variables, where θi is a vector of phases (angles), Ωi is a vector of frequencies of the ith oscillator Xi. It was shown also that whether or not the oscillators interact depends not only on the existence of connections between them, but also on their frequencies. One can find many examples of this system, especially in neural networks. ISSN 1562-3076. Нелiнiйнi коливання, 2005, т . 8, N◦ 4 470 A. ELNAZAROV Other type of weakly connected systems can be found in the works [9, 10]. In the present work we assume that for ε = 0 each of the uncoupled systems of equations (5), (6) has an asymptotically stable invariant torus of the following form: M{y = f(ϕ), ϕ ∈ Tr}, N = {z = g(θ), θ ∈ Tl}, (8) where f ∈ C1(Tr), g ∈ C1(Tl), Tr = {ϕ(ϕ1, ϕ2, . . . , ϕr) : 0 ≤ ϕi ≤ 2π, 0 ≤ i ≤ r}, Tl = {θ(θ1, θ2, . . . , θl) : 0 ≤ θj ≤ 2π, 0 ≤ j ≤ l}. We shall consider the problem, when pertubed system (3) has an invariant manifold. We used the method described in [2]. To this end we have to transform the system about the invari- ant manifolds M,N (8). We showed that under certain conditions the invariant torus of the transformed system, which has dimension r + l, can be constructed from the invariant torus of the unpertubed systems with less dimension r and l. This paper is organized as follows. In Section 1 the local coordinate system about the invariant torus of the uncoupled systems (5), (6) is introduced and the definition of an almost independent function is given. The proof of the preliminary Lemma 2 is also included in this section. The method for constructing the invariant torus of the system (3) and a proof of the main result is given in Section 2. Section 3 contains two examples of weakly connected systems. We apply the method described in Section 2 to this systems of differential equations. 1. A local coordinate system about the invariant torus. To introduce local coordinate we suppose that the functions f, g are such that f(ϕ) ∈ C1(Tr), rank ∂f(ϕ) ∂ϕ = r ∀ ϕ ∈ Tr, g(θ) ∈ C1(Tl), rank ∂g(θ) ∂θ = l ∀ θ ∈ Tl and also assume that the matrix ∂f(ϕ) ∂ϕ and ∂g(θ) ∂θ can be completed to a periodic basis in Rm, Rk respectively, and the complement matrix B(ϕ) ∈ C1(Tr), W (θ) ∈ C1(Tl) is such that det ∣∣∣∣∂f(ϕ) ∂ϕ ,B(ϕ) ∣∣∣∣ 6= 0, (9) det ∣∣∣∣∂f(θ) ∂θ ,W (θ) ∣∣∣∣ 6= 0. Under the above assumptions we can define local coordinates ϕ, h (for (5)) and s, θ (for (6)) in a neighborhood of the invariant manifolds M, N by y = f(ϕ) + B(ϕ)h, (10) z = g(θ + W (θ)s. (11) ISSN 1562-3076. Нелiнiйнi коливання, 2005, т . 8, N◦ 4 ON INVARIANT TORUS OF WEEKLY CONNECTED SYSTEMS OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS 471 Following lemma [2] (A. M. Samoilenko) we can apply the transformation (10), (11) to (3). Lemma 1. For every sufficiently small δ > 0 there exists δ1(δ) → 0 as δ → 0 such that every point y (or z) satisfying ρ(y, M) < δ (or ρ(z,N) < δ), has local coordinates ϕ, h (or s, θ ), satisfying ‖h‖ ≤ δ1, ϕ ∈ Tr (or ‖s‖ ≤ δ1, θ ∈ Tl). (12) By substituting (10), (11) into (3) we obtain[ ∂f(ϕ) ∂ϕ + ∂B(ϕ) ∂ϕ h ] dϕ dt + B(ϕ) dh dt = Y (f(ϕ) + B(ϕ)h, g(θ) + W (θ)s, ε), [ ∂g(θ) ∂θ + ∂W (θ) ∂θ s ] dθ dt + W (θ) ds dt = Z(g(θ) + W (θ)s, f(ϕ) + B(ϕ)h, ε), and condition (9) allows us to solve this system with respect to dϕ dt , dh dt , dθ dt , ds dt for all h, s, ϕ, θ from the domain (12), so that the system of equations (3), after transformation, will have the form dϕ dt = a1(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε), dh dt = P1(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε), (13) dθ dt = a2(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε), ds dt = P2(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε), where a1, a2, P1, P2 are periodic functions with respect to ϕi, i = 1, . . . , r, θj , j = 1, . . . , l, defined and continuous with respect to ϕ, θ, h, s, ε in the domain ‖h‖ ≤ d, ϕ ∈ Tr, ‖s‖ ≤ d, θ ∈ Tl, ε ∈ (0, ε0], (14) where d and ε0 are sufficiently small numbers. It should be noted that for ε = 0 we have following systems: dϕ dt = a∗1(ϕ, h), (15) dh dt = P ∗ 1 (ϕ, h), dθ dt = a∗2(θ, s), (16) ds dt = P ∗ 2 (θ, s), ISSN 1562-3076. Нелiнiйнi коливання, 2005, т . 8, N◦ 4 472 A. ELNAZAROV where a∗1(ϕ, h) = a1(ϕ, 0, h, 0, 0), P ∗ 1 (ϕ, h) = P1(ϕ, 0, h, 0, 0), a∗2(θ, s) = a2(0, θ, 0, s, 0), P ∗ 2 (θ, s) = P2(0, θ, 0, s, 0). By assuming that the systems of equations (5), (6) have the invariant manifolds (8) is equi- valent to the systems (15) and (16) having the invariant torus h = 0, ϕ ∈ Tr, s = 0, θ ∈ Tl. Definition 2. A function a(ϕ, θ, σ) ∈ Cp(Tl × Tr) is called almost independent of θ of the order p if for any ε > 0 sufficiently small there exists σ > 0 such that∣∣a(ϕ, θ, σ)− a(ϕ, 0, 0) ∣∣ p < ε. Remark. For the class of this functions we may put, for example, H(ϕ, θ) = F (ϕ) + σG(ϕ, θ), where F (ϕ), G(ϕ, θ) are periodic functions with respect to each component of ϕ and θ; σ is a sufficiently small parameter. Definition 3. According to [2] (A. M. Samoilenko), the Green function G0(τ, ϕ) of the system dϕ dt = a(ϕ), dh dt = P (ϕ)h is said to be rough if there exists δ = const > 0 and an integer number p ≥ 0 such that the system of equations dϕ dt = a(ϕ) + a1(ϕ), dh dt = P (ϕ)h, (17) for a1 ∈ Cp0(Tm) (p0 = max (1, p)) and |a1|p0 ≤ δ, (18) has a Green function G0(τ, ϕ) satisfying the inequality∣∣G0(τ, ϕ)f(ϕr(ϕ)) ∣∣ p ≤ Ke−γ|τ ||f |p (19) where f is a function in Cp0(Tm), ϕτ (ϕ) is a solution of the first equation (17); K, γ are positive constants independent of ϕ, δ, f. The following lemma takes a central place in the future investigations. Lemma 2. Assume that the functions a1(ϕ, θ, σ), P1(ϕ, θ, σ) and a2(ϕ, θ, σ), P2(ϕ, θ, σ) are almost independent of θ and ϕ, respectively. Let each of the systems of equations dϕ dt = a1(ϕ, 0, 0), dθ dt = a2(0, θ, 0), (20) dh dt = P1(ϕ, θ, σ)h ISSN 1562-3076. Нелiнiйнi коливання, 2005, т . 8, N◦ 4 ON INVARIANT TORUS OF WEEKLY CONNECTED SYSTEMS OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS 473 and dϕ dt = a1(ϕ, 0, 0), dθ dt = a2(0, θ, 0), (21) ds dt = P2(ϕ, θ, σ)s have a rough Green function. Then there exist µ = µ(δ) (µ → 0, δ → 0) and σ0 > 0 such that for every σ ∈ (0, σ0], functions a•1, P • 1 , a•2, P • 2 ∈ Cp(Tl × Tr) satisfying the inequalities |a•1|p + |a•2|p + |P • 1 |p < µ, (22) |a•1|p + |a•2|p + |P • 2 |p < µ, and functions f1, f2 ∈ Cp(Tr × Tl), each of the systems of equations dϕ dt = a1(ϕ, θ, σ) + a•1(ϕ, θ), dθ dt = a2(ϕ, θ, σ) + a•2(ϕ, θ), (23) dh dt = [ P1(ϕ, θ, σ) + P • 1 (ϕ, θ) ] h + f1(ϕ, θ) and dϕ dt = a1(ϕ, θ, σ) + a•1(ϕ, θ), dθ dt = a2(ϕ, θ, σ) + a•2(ϕ, θ), (24) ds dt = [ P2(ϕ, θ, σ) + P • 2 (ϕ, θ) ] s + f2(ϕ, θ) has an invariant torus of the type h = u(ϕ, θ, σ), s = v(ϕ, θ, σ), ϕ ∈ Tr, θ ∈ Tl, σ ∈ (0, σ0], satisfying the inequality |u(ϕ, θ, σ)|p ≤ K1|f1|p, (25) |v(ϕ, θ, σ)|p ≤ K2|f2|p, where K1, K2 are positive constants independent of µ, f1, f2. ISSN 1562-3076. Нелiнiйнi коливання, 2005, т . 8, N◦ 4 474 A. ELNAZAROV Proof. Let us rewrite the system of equations dϕ dt = a1(ϕ, θ, σ), dθ dt = a2(ϕ, θ, σ), dh dt = P1(ϕ, θ, σ)h in the following form: dϕ dt = a1(ϕ, 0, 0) + a11(ϕ, θ, σ), dθ dt = a2(0, θ, 0) + a21(ϕ, θ, σ), dh dt = [ P1(ϕ, 0, 0) + P11(ϕ, θ, σ) ] h, where a11(ϕ, θ, σ) = a1(ϕ, θ, σ)−a1(ϕ, 0, 0), a21(ϕ, θ, σ) = a2(ϕ, θ, σ)−a2(0, θ, 0), P11(ϕ, θ, σ) = = P1(ϕ, θ, σ)−P1(ϕ, 0, 0). Since the functions a1, P1 and a2 are almost independent of θ and ϕ, respectively, for every ε > 0 we can choose σ0 > 0 such that for any σ ∈ (0, σ0] the following inequalities hold: |a11(ϕ, θ, σ)|p < ε, |a21(ϕ, θ, σ)|p < ε, |P11(ϕ, θ, σ)|p < ε, (26) ϕ ∈ Tr, θ ∈ Tl. By using the fact that the system (23) has a rough Green function we can choose δ > 0 in (18) and ε > 0 in (26) such that the system of equations dϕ dt = a1(ϕ, θ, σ) + a•1(ϕ, θ), dθ dt = a2(ϕ, θ, σ) + a•2(ϕ, θ), dh dt = [ P1(ϕ, θ, σ) + P • 1 (ϕ, θ) ] h + f1(ϕ, θ) with the functions a•1(ϕ, θ), a•2(ϕ, θ), P • 1 (ϕ, θ) satisfying the inequality |a•1|p + |a11|p + |a•2|p + |a21|p + |P • 1 |p + |P11|p < δ, ϕ ∈ Tr, θ ∈ Tl, (27) has a Green function G0(τ, ϕ, θ) which satisfies∣∣G0(τ, ϕ, θ)f1(ϕτ (ϕ), θτ (θ)) ∣∣ p ≤ K1e −γ1|τ ||f1|p. (28) ISSN 1562-3076. Нелiнiйнi коливання, 2005, т . 8, N◦ 4 ON INVARIANT TORUS OF WEEKLY CONNECTED SYSTEMS OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS 475 Let us denote by Gf(ϕ, θ) = ∞∫ −∞ G0(τ, ϕ, θ)f(ϕτ (ϕ), θτ (θ))dτ the operator defined on f ∈ Cp(Tr × Tl) and let consider the following equation: u = GP • 1 u + Gf1. A solution of this equation exists if |GP • 1 |p = d < 1, (29) but we can choose a sufficiently small δ > 0 such that (29) holds and we obtain a unique solution in the form u = ∞∑ k=0 (GP • 1 )k Gf1, (30) which satisfies the inequality |u(ϕ, θ, σ)|p ≤ K1|f1|p for any σ ∈ (0, σ0]. Obviously, u = u(ϕ, θ, σ) defined by (30) for any σ ∈ (0, σ0] is an invariant torus of the system dϕ dt = a1(ϕ, θ, σ) + a•1(ϕ, θ), dθ dt = a2(ϕ, θ, σ) + a•2(ϕ, θ), dh dt = [ P1(ϕ, θ, σ) + P • 1 (ϕ, θ) ] h + f1(ϕ, θ). Lemma 2 is proved for h = u(ϕ, θ, σ), σ ∈ (0, σ0], ϕ ∈ Tr, θ ∈ Tl. For the case when s = v(ϕ, θ, σ), ϕ ∈ Tr, θ ∈ Tl, we can prove it in the same way. 2. Constructing an invariant torus. Let us, by using the method of Samoilenko, construct an invariant torus of system (13). To this end we select the «linear» part of P1(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε), P2(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε) and obtain dϕ dt = a1(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε), dh dt = P ∗ 1 (ϕ, θ, h, s, ε)h + f1(ϕ, θ, ε), dθ dt = a2(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε), ds dt = P ∗ 2 (ϕ, θ, h, s, ε)s + f2(ϕ, θ, ε), ISSN 1562-3076. Нелiнiйнi коливання, 2005, т . 8, N◦ 4 476 A. ELNAZAROV where P ∗ 1 (ϕ, θ, h, s, ε) = 1∫ 0 ∂[P1(ϕ, θ, th, s, ε)− P1(ϕ, θ, 0, 0, ε)] ∂(th) dt, P ∗ 2 (ϕ, θ, h, s, ε) = 1∫ 0 ∂[P2(ϕ, θ, h, ts, ε)− P2(ϕ, θ, 0, 0, ε)] ∂(ts) dt, f1(ϕ, θ, ε) = P1(ϕ, θ, 0, 0, ε), f2(ϕ, θ, ε) = P2(ϕ, θ, 0, 0, ε). When ε = 0, system (13) has the invariant torus h = 0, s = 0, therefore f1(ϕ, 0, 0) = 0, f2(ϕ, 0, 0) = 0. We can also rewrite the above system in the form dϕ dt = a10(ϕ) + a11(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε), dθ dt = a20(θ) + a22(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε), dh dt = [ P ∗ 10(ϕ) + P ∗ 11(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε) ] h + f1(ϕ, θ, ε), ds dt = [ P ∗ 20(θ) + P ∗ 21(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε) ] s + f2(ϕ, θ, ε), where a10(ϕ) = a1(ϕ, 0, 0, 0, 0), a11(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε) = a1(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε)− a10(ϕ), a20(θ) = a2(0, θ, 0, 0, 0), a22(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε) = a2(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε)− a20(θ), P ∗ 10(ϕ) = P ∗ 1 (ϕ, 0, 0, 0, 0), P ∗ 11(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε) = P ∗ 1 (ϕ, θ, h, s, ε)− P ∗ 10(ϕ), P ∗ 20(θ) = P ∗ 2 (0, θ, 0, 0, 0), P ∗ 21(ϕ, θ, h, s, ε) = P ∗ 2 (0, θ, h, s, ε)− P ∗ 20(θ). Consider the systems of equations of the type dϕ dt = a10(ϕ), dθ dt = a20(θ), dh dt = [ P ∗ 10(ϕ) + P101(ϕ, θ, ε) ] h, and dϕ dt = a10(ϕ), dθ dt = a20(θ), ds dt = [ P ∗ 20(θ) + P201(ϕ, θ, ε) ] s. (31) We can prove the following theorem for the system (13). Theorem. Suppose that for every P101(ϕ, θ, ε), P201(ϕ, θ, ε), almost independent of θ and ϕ respectively, each of the system of equations (31) has a rough Green function of order p, satisfying ISSN 1562-3076.

Assume that the functions a1, a2, P ∗ 1 , P ∗ 2 , in the domain ‖h‖ ≤ d, ϕ ∈ Tr, ‖s‖ ≤ d, θ ∈ Tl, ε ∈ (0, ε0], are continuous together with all derivative with respect to ϕ, θ, h, s up to the order p. If p ≥ 1 then there exists a sufficiently small ε0 > 0 such that for every ε ∈ (0, ε0] the system of equations (13) has an invariant torus, H = U(ϕ, θ, ε) = ( u(ϕ, θ, ε) v(ϕ, θ, ε) ) , ϕ ∈ Tr, θ ∈ Tl, where u(ϕ, θ, ε), v(ϕ, θ, ε) ∈ Cp−1(Tr × Tl) and satisfy the inequality |u(ϕ, θ, ε)|p−1 ≤ K1|f1|p−1, |v(ϕ, θ, ε)|p−1 ≤ K2|f2|p−1, where K1, K2 are positive constants independent of ε. Proof. We may find the invariant torus by an iteration process.

ELNAZAROV and, by denoting αi = |ωi(ϕ, θ, ε)|0 + |νi(ϕ, θ, ε)|0, it is easy to show that (46) is equivalent to αi+1 ≤ K1M{|f1|1 + |f2|1}{α1 + αi−1}. (48) The property of the functions f1, f2 allows us to choose a sufficiently small ε0 such that K1M{|f1|1 + |f2|1} ≤ 1 2 , but then lim i→∞ αi = 0, which means that for every ε ∈ (0, ε0] there exist functions u(ϕ, θ, ε), v(ϕ, θ, ε) in C(Tr × Tl) for which lim i→∞ ui(ϕ, θ, ε) = u(ϕ, θ, ε), (49) lim i→∞ vi(ϕ, θ, ε) = v(ϕ, θ, ε) uniformly with respect to ϕ, θ. Since the sequences ui(ϕ, θ, ε), vi(ϕ, θ, ε), i = 1, 2, . . . , are bounded in the space Cp(Tr×Tl), they are compact in the Cp−1(Tr × Tl) which means that lim i→∞ |ui(ϕ, θ, ε)− u(ϕ, θ, ε)|p−1 = 0, (50) lim i→∞ |vi(ϕ, θ, ε)− v(ϕ, θ, ε)|p−1 = 0, and taking limits in (38) we obtain |u(ϕ, θ, ε)|p−1 ≤ K1|f1|p−1, |v(ϕ, θ, ε)|p−1 ≤ K1|f2|p−1.
