solving coupled equation












1












$begingroup$


$$begin{aligned}dot{x}&=xleft ( 3-x-2y right )\
dot{y}&=yleft ( 2-x-y right )end{aligned}$$



The above is a coupled equation.



The fixed point condition requires all $;x,y;$ for which $x^{ast} =0;$ and $; y^{ast}=0.$

Solving, I arrive at $left ( x^*=0,y^*=0 right );$ and $;left ( x^*=1,y^*=1 right ).$

But there are $2$ other solutions: $left ( x^*=0,y^*=2 right );$ and $;left ( x^*=3,y^*=0 right ).$



I am unable to determine the last $2$ ordered pairs of fixed points. Any help would be good.

    Concentrate on the RHS. WHAT IF $x=0$ ? Take cases. As far as I can see you need only to find the equilibrium points.

Consider first solving the $dot{x}$ equation. You should conclude that either $x=0$ or $x=3-2y$.



Now solve the $dot{y}$ equation in each of these cases i.e. first suppose $x=0$, then substitute this into the $dot{y}$ equation to get $0=y(2-y)$, so this is satisfied when $y=0$ and when $y=2$.



So you will have found the points $(0,0)$ and $(0,2)$. Repeat this process for the other relation found on $x$ (i.e. $x=3-2y$) to get the other points.

    make the equations quadratic:



    $y^2+(x-2)y=0$



    solving for this we get $y=0,-(x-2)$ so when you substitute $y=0$ in the above equation you will get $x=3~x=0$, now when you substitute $x=0$ in the second equation you get $y=2,0$ when you solve for the equation on the whole, you get $(1,1),~(0,0)$ as the fixed points. Now from the above obtained fixed point pairs you can see that the fixed points are $(0,2),~(3,0)$.

      You appear to have taken something in factorised form, expanded it, then re-factorised it into the same form as before in order to solve it. One should simply read off the solutions from the original factorised form.

    Analytical solution for the third and fourth fixed points will be a bit tricky (messy and cumbersome). However, you can use substitution in any one of the equations (replace $y$ in $dot x$ or $x$ in $dot y$) and solve the quadratic equation to get your other two fixed points.
