Figure 2.1: The phase space is R 4 <strong>with</strong> three <strong>slow</strong> <strong>variables</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>one</strong> <strong>fast</strong><br />

variable. The critical manifold C is a solid ball D 3 ⊂ R 4 . The<br />

equilibria p, q ∈ D 3 are shown together <strong>with</strong> the transversal<br />

intersection of their stable <strong>and</strong> unstable manifolds W s (p) <strong>and</strong><br />

W u (q) for the <strong>slow</strong> flow (2.2). The transversal intersection gives<br />

a heteroclinic connection. The <strong>fast</strong> <strong>slow</strong> is indicated by double<br />

arrows <strong>and</strong> is directed toward C.<br />
