Abstract

This project presents a research proposal to be developed in the Departamento de Matemática of the Instituto de Ciências Matemáticas e de Computação, University of São Paulo, for a period of two years. Our objective is to investigate problems involving the dynamics of impulsive systems. Among the topics to be investigated there are the existence, periodicity, oscillation and stability of solutions. We consider that the equations may have delays whenever possible. (AU)
