Other Forms
In some nonlinear systems, parameters are explicit. In others they are implicit, and the system of nonlinear equations is written
where is an n-vector, and its image is an n-1 vector.
This formulation, without an explicit parameter space is not usually suitable for the formulations in the following sections, because they refer to parameterized autonomous nonlinear dynamical systems of the form:
However, in an algebraic system there is no distinction between unknowns and the parameters.

Famous quotes containing the word forms:
“The village had institutionalized all human functions in forms of low intensity.... Participation was high and organization was low. This is the formula for stability.”
—Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
“An expense of ends to means is fate;Morganization tyrannizing over character. The menagerie, or forms and powers of the spine, is a book of fate: the bill of the bird, the skull of the snake, determines tyrannically its limits.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
