Abstract:
A system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations of large dimension
with a parameter is considered. We investigate asymptotic properties of solutions
to the system in dependence on the growth of the number of the equations or parameter.
We prove that, for sufficiently large number of differential equations,
the last component of the solution to the Cauchy problem is an approximate solution
to an initial problem for one delay differential equation. For a fixed number of equations
and a sufficiently large parameter, the solution to the Cauchy problem
for the system is an approximate solution to the Cauchy problem for a simpler system.
