# Systems in the Plane
|

|
Why do we care about looking at systems in the plane?
|
||||||
|
Well - we want to know about equilibrium points and how the system behaves around them.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Recall that equilibrium points are fixed. P = Q = 0
|
||||||
|
## Some Loose definitions

| Name | Definition |

|
||||||
|
| Periodic | A trajectory loops upon itself |
|
||||||
|
| Stable | Trajectories converge to a point |
|
||||||
|
| Unstable | Trajectories diverge from a point |
|
||||||
|
| Linear Center | An equilibrium point that has orbits around it |
|
||||||
|
| Limit Cycle | Happens a lot with nonlinear systems. Trajectories are pulled some target trajectory and stay there. |
