Problem 2
Can an autonomous vector field on \(\mathbb{R}\) that has no equilibrium points have periodic orbits? We assume that existence and uniqueness of solutions holds.(You must justify your answer.) \(^{3}\)
Problem 7
Show that the time shift property for autonomous vector fields implies that trajectories cannot "cross each other", i.e. intersect, in phase space.
Problem 9
Show that the intersection of two invariant sets is an invariant set.
