to (1) and generates a trajectory completely lying in
Ω
+
.
So, we have to
prove existence of a trajectory of the first type.
Assume the converse. Then any trajectory passing through a point
s
∈
Ω
−
∩
S
3
must reach the boundary
∂
Ω
−
∩
S
3
.
Thus we obtain the
mapping
Ω
−
∩
S
3
→
∂
Ω
−
∩
S
3
.
To prove its continuity we represent it as
s
∈
Ω
−
∩
S
3
7
→
Traj
p
0
(
s, ξ
(
s
))
∈
∈
∂
Ω
−
∩
S
3
.
Here
Traj
p
0
(
s, t
)
is the point in
S
3
reached at the time
t
by the trajectory
of the dynamical system on the sphere that passed
s
at the time
0
.
The
mapping
Traj
p
0
:
S
3
×
R
→
S
3
is continuous according to the general
properties of differential equations.
The function
ξ
: Ω
−
∩
S
3
→
R
gives the time
t
at which the trajectory
passing through the given point of
Ω
−
at
t
0
= 0
reaches
∂
Ω
−
.
Now we
prove continuity of
ξ.
Suppose
ξ
(
s
1
) =
t
1
and
ε >
0
.
Then, since
Traj
p
0
(
s
1
, t
1
+
ε
)
is inside
Ω
+
,
there exists a neighborhood
U
+
of
s
1
such that for any
s
∈
U
+
the
point
Traj
p
0
(
s, t
1
+
ε
)
is also inside
Ω
+
.
So, we have
ξ
(
s
)
< t
1
+
ε
for all
s
∈
U
+
.
Similarly, since
Traj
p
0
(
s
1
, t
1
−
ε
)
is inside
Ω
−
,
there exists a neighbor-
hood
U
−
of
s
1
such that for any
s
∈
U
−
the point
Traj
p
0
(
s, t
1
−
ε
)
is also
inside
Ω
−
,
whence
ξ
(
s
)
> t
1
−
ε.
So, for all
s
∈
U
−
∩
U
+
we have
|
ξ
(
s
)
−
t
1
|
< ε.
Thus
ξ
(
s
)
is continuous
on
Ω
−
∩
S
3
and we have the continuous mapping
Ω
−
∩
S
3
→
∂
Ω
−
∩
S
3
whose restriction to
∂
Ω
−
∩
S
3
is the identity map. In other words, we
have the composition
∂
Ω
−
∩
S
3
→
Ω
−
∩
S
3
→
∂
Ω
−
∩
S
3
,
which is
the identity map, inducing the identity map on the homology groups:
H
2
(
∂
Ω
−
∩
S
3
)
→
H
2
(Ω
−
∩
S
3
)
→
H
2
(
∂
Ω
−
∩
S
3
)
.
Since
Ω
−
∩
S
3
and
∂
Ω
−
∩
S
3
are homeomorphic to the solid torus
and the torus surface respectively, the above composition can be written
as
Z
→
0
→
Z
,
which cannot be the identity mapping. This contradiction
proves the lemma.

Lemma 5.
Suppose
y
(
x
)
is a non-trivial solution to equation
(1)
maximally extended to the right. Then neither
y
(
x
)
nor any of its derivatives
y
0
(
x
)
, y
00
(
x
)
, y
000
(
x
)
can have constant sign near the right boundary of their
domain.
J
We prove it for
y
(
x
)
.
For the derivatives the proof is just similar.
Suppose
y
(
x
)
is defined on an interval
(
x
−
, x
+
)
,
bounded or not, and is
positive in a neighborhood of
x
+
.
Then
y
000
(
x
)
,
due to (1), is monotonically
decreasing to a finite or infinite limit as
x
→
x
+
.
Then
y
000
(
x
)
ultimately
has a constant sign. In the same way,
y
00
(
x
)
, y
0
(
x
)
,
and
y
(
x
)
itself are all
ultimately monotone and have finite or infinite limits as
x
→
x
+
.
