Well-posed IVP
Theorem(Peano’s Theorem):
Let R : |x − x0 | ≤ a, |y − y0 | ≤ b be a rectangle. If
f ∈ C(R) then the IVP
has at least one solution y(x). This solution is defined for all x in the
interval |x − 0| ≤ h, where

h = min{3, }, K = max |xy|.
K (x,y)∈R
Theorem(Picard’s Theorem):
Let f ∈ C(R) and satisfy the Lipschitz condition with respect
to y in R, i.e., there exists a number L such that
