Jordan curves and funnel sections

arXiv:1102.2644

Abstract

We study the case when solution of an ODE at a given initial condition fail to be unique and investigate what are the possible time-1 sections of the `solution funnel'. Along the way we give construction of a natural complete metric on the space of Jordan curves and prove that the generic Jordan curve is nowhere pierceable by arcs of finite length.
