Abstract

This chapter extends the coordinate-independent GSPT beyond Fenichel theory. Loss of normal hyperbolicity is one essential ingredient for a singularly perturbed system to switch between slow and fast dynamics as observed in many relaxation oscillator models; see Chap. 2. Geometrically, loss of normal hyperbolicity occurs generically along (a union of) codimension-one submanifold(s) of S where a nontrivial eigenvalue of the layer problem crosses the imaginary axis.

Notes

  1. 1.

    This matrix is also referred to as the adjugate.

  2. 2.

    We have \((\Pi ^S_d)^2=-\det (D\!f N) \Pi ^S_d\), i.e., this is only a ‘projection’ operator up to the time rescaling factor \(-\det (D\!f N)\) which does not cause any troubles from a dynamical systems point of view.

  3. 3.

    A blow-up analysis near contact points justifies this formal approach.

  4. 4.

    For z ∈ S h, the projectors ΠS and \(\Pi ^S_d\) are equivalent and have the same rank which is k ≥ 1.

  5. 5.

    This part follows the same steps as in the proof of Lemma 4.1.

  6. 6.

    A simple translation of the contact point suffices.

  7. 7.

    This is left as an exercise for the reader; see, e.g., [103].
