Picard-Lipschitz Theorem: Existence and Uniqueness of Solutions

Given a differential equation (1), if A is an open set, f is continuous in A, and f∈Lloc(A,x), then, for a fixed (t0,x0)∈A, there exists a unique solution of (1) passing through (t0,x0).

Since (t0, x0)∈A and A is open, it is possible to take U1, an open neighborhood of (t0,x0), in which f is bounded. Let H be a bound of f in U1, that is, ||f(t, x)||≤ H, ∀(t, x) ∈ U1. We choose U2, an open neighborhood of (t0, x0), in which f∈L(U2,x), where K is a Lipschitz constant. The set U=U1∩U2
