摘要：Relaxation oscillations occur in slow-fast planar dynamical systems.  These oscillations typically exhibit a “relaxed” behavior characterized by alternating processes on different time scales, namely, a long relaxation period during which the solutions approach a branch of the nullcline of fast variable, say x, followed by a short impulsive period in which the solutions jump to a different branch of the nullcline. So relaxation limit cycles approach a singular closed orbit formed by horizontal line segments and the arcs on the different branches of the nullcline of the fast variable x. 

Relaxation oscillations are well studied and understood for the famous Van del Pol equation that arises in the study of nonlinear electrical circuits.  In this talk, we discuss two new types of relaxation oscillations in predator-prey systems. The talk is based on joint works with Susmita Sadhu and Yingfei Yi.
