Topologies for geometric flows and continuous dependence on parameters

Geometric Topology 2023-10-20 v1

Abstract

We study time- and parameter-dependent ordinary differential equations in the geometric setting of vector fields and their flows. Various degrees of regularities in state are considered, including Lipschitz, finitely diferentiable, smooth, and holomorphic. A suitable topology for the space of flows is derived using geometric descriptions of suitable topologies for vector fields. A new kind of continuous dependence is proved, that of the fixed time local flow on the parameter in a general topological space.
