Abstract

We consider a nonautonomous ordinary differential equation of the form $\dot{x}=f(t,x)$, $x\in \mathbb{R}^n$ over a finite-time interval $t\in [T_1,T_2]$. The basin of attraction of an attracting solution can be determined using a finite-time Lyapunov function.  &nbsp In this paper, such a finite-time Lyapunov function is constructed by Meshless Collocation, in particular Radial Basis Functions. Thereto, a finite-time Lyapunov function is characterised as the solution of a second-order linear partial differential equation with boundary values. This problem is approximately solved using Meshless Collocation, and it is shown that the approximate solution can be used to determine the basin of attraction. Error estimates are obtained and verified in examples.
