Section 2.3 – Existence & Uniqueness
Typical IVP



IVP: y '  f ( x, y); y (a)  b
One equation, and one IC
We can guarantee a unique solution to this under
some simple constraints
a) f ( x, y ) continuous on an interval
f
b)
continuous on the same region
y
Then there is only one solution for each IC
