In this paper, we study slow manifolds for infinite-dimensional evolution equations. We compare two approaches: an abstract evolution equation framework and a finite-dimensional spectral Galerkin approximation. We prove that the slow manifolds constructed within each approach are asymptotically close under suitable conditions. The proof is based upon Lyapunov-Perron methods and a comparison of the local graphs for the slow manifolds in scales of Banach spaces. In summary, our main result allows us to change between different characterizations of slow invariant manifolds, depending upon the technical challenges posed by particular fast-slow systems.

We consider general difference equations $u_{n+1} = F(u)_n$ for $n in mathbb{Z}$ on exponentially weighted $ell_2$ spaces of two-sided Hilbert space valued sequences $u$ and discuss initial value problems. As an application of the Hilbert space approach, we characterize exponential stability of linear equations and prove a stable manifold theorem for causal nonlinear difference equations.
We formulate fractional difference equations of Riemann-Liouville and Caputo type in a functional analytical framework. Main results are existence of solutions on Hilbert space-valued weighted sequence spaces and a condition for stability of linear fractional difference equations. Using a functional calculus, we relate the fractional sum to fractional powers of the operator $1 - tau^{-1}$ with the right shift $tau^{-1}$ on weighted sequence spaces. Causality of the solution operator plays a crucial role for the description of initial value problems.
We report a detailed analysis on the emergence of bursting in a recently developed neural mass model that takes short-term synaptic plasticity into account. The one being used here is particularly important, as it represents an exact meanfield limit of synaptically coupled quadratic integrate & fire neurons, a canonical model for type I excitability. In absence of synaptic dynamics, a periodic external current with a slow frequency {epsilon} can lead to burst-like dynamics. The firing patterns can be understood using techniques of singular perturbation theory, specifically slow-fast dissection. In the model with synaptic dynamics the separation of timescales leads to a variety of slow-fast phenomena and their role for bursting is rendered inordinately more intricate. Canards are one of the main slow-fast elements on the route to bursting. They describe trajectories evolving nearby otherwise repelling locally invariant sets of the system and are found in the transition region from subthreshold dynamics to bursting. For values of the timescale separation nearby the singular limit {epsilon} = 0, we report peculiar jump-on canards, which block a continuous transition to bursting. In the biologically more plausible regime of {epsilon} this transition becomes continuous and bursts emerge via consecutive spike-adding transitions. The onset of bursting is of complex nature and involves mixed-type like torus canards, which form the very first spikes of the burst and revolve nearby fast-subsystem repelling limit cycles. We provide numerical evidence for the same mechanisms to be responsible for the emergence of bursting in the quadratic integrate & fire network with plastic synapses. The main conclusions apply for the network, owing to the exactness of the meanfield limit.
M. Kruskal showed that each nearly-periodic dynamical system admits a formal $U(1)$ symmetry, generated by the so-called roto-rate. We prove that such systems also admit nearly-invariant manifolds of each order, near which rapid oscillations are suppressed. We study the nonlinear normal stability of these slow manifolds for nearly-periodic Hamiltonian systems on barely symplectic manifolds -- manifolds equipped with closed, non-degenerate $2$-forms that may be degenerate to leading order. In particular, we establish a sufficient condition for long-term normal stability based on second derivatives of the well-known adiabatic invariant. We use these results to investigate the problem of embedding guiding center dynamics of a magnetized charged particle as a slow manifold in a nearly-periodic system. We prove that one previous embedding, and two new embeddings enjoy long-term normal stability, and thereby strengthen the theoretical justification for these models.
We study the problem of preservation of canard connections for time discretized fast-slow systems with canard fold points. In order to ensure such preservation, certain favorable structure preserving properties of the discretization scheme are required. Conventional schemes do not possess such properties. We perform a detailed analysis for an unconventional discretization scheme due to Kahan. The analysis uses the blow-up method to deal with the loss of normal hyperbolicity at the canard point. We show that the structure preserving properties of the Kahan discretization imply a similar result as in continuous time, guaranteeing the occurrence of canard connections between attracting and repelling slow manifolds upon variation of a bifurcation parameter. The proof is based on a non-canonical Melnikov computation along an invariant separating curve, which organizes the dynamics of the map similarly to the ODE problem.
