differential equations - Putting NDSolve into ParametricPlot


I am having issues using Manipulate to plot the (numeric) solution to an ODE for different parameter values.


I have a code that has several stages, which seem to all work when I do them one after another. This code solves a system of ODEs (for particular parameter values), then does a parametric plot of the solution. The problem is I need to put the lines together to wrap them around with Manipulate (for I can do this code again easily for different parameter values), and this is causing me a lot of pain.


My initial code is:


(*this is my ODE*)

unforced[x0_, p0_, α_:α, δ_:δ] :=

{x'[t] == p[t],
p'[t] == -α x[t] - δ p[t] + α (x[t])^3,
x[0] == x0,
p[0] == p0
}

(*Choose some parameter values*)

α = -1, δ = 1


(*Solve my ODE*)

s = NDSolve[unforced[x0 = 1, p0 = 1], {x, p}, {t, 20}]

(*Plot It*)

ParametricPlot[Evaluate[{x[t], p[t]} /. s], {t, 0, 20}]

But now I want to be able to Manipulate the parameter values α and δ. So I start putting the lines of code together... and problems happen.


ParametricPlot[Evaluate[{x[t], p[t]}/.

NDSolve[{x'[t] == p[t],
p'[t] == -α x[t] - δ p[t] + α (x[t])^3,
x[0] == 1, p[0] == 0}, {x, p}, {t, 20}]], {t, 0, 20}]

This plots an empty graph. This confuses me because it seems like all I did was substitute into my previous code. Because this doesn't work, I can't put a Manipulate around this. If it worked then I would have tried:


Manipulate[ParametricPlot[Evaluate[{x[t], p[t]} /.
NDSolve[{x'[t] == p[t],
p'[t] == -α x[t] - δ p[t] + α (x[t])^3,
x[0] == 1, p[0] == 0}, {x, p}, {t, 20}]], {t, 0, 20}],
{{α, -1, "α"}, -2, 0}, {{δ, 0, "δ"}, 0, 2}]


How do I get around this problem?

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...
