Sergei, you'd better use the "MSCwiki" template on your userpage; the "MSC" template gives a category to your userpage, which should not happen; as far as I understand, only articles should have categories.

Hi, welcome aboard of EoM.

I just checked and found 331 EoM pages with at least one of your favoured keywords: "singularities, limit cycles, normal forms, invariant manifolds, foliations"

If you want I could include here a list of links to those pages. --Ulf Rehmann 12:41, 15 April 2012 (CEST)

Hi Ulf! Yes, please include these links.
I will gradually learn the habits of the Wiki community. The first question is how to post answers/comments in the "Talk" pages: this one I do manually, but hopefully there should be some interface for such conversations (threaded or not).
Thanks -- Sergei.
Well, see below. It is probably not a good idea to let this spam your talk page so maybe you put it into a separate page. I have something similar on my user page, a bit pre-sorted by now, but was started with a list like the below.
For editing, you can use your favoured editor, I have given hints on the help page, look for "It's all text".--Ulf Rehmann 15:29, 15 April 2012 (CEST)
For the pages below, I have applied a program which inserts MR and ZBL numbers automatically. It does make mistakes, in particular sometimes it proposes too many entries, so please check. --Ulf Rehmann 19:01, 15 April 2012 (CEST)

Your userpage and categories

Sergei, you'd better use the "MSCwiki" template on your userpage; the "MSC" template gives a category to your userpage, which should not happen; as far as I understand, only articles should have categories. By the way, if you want to only mention a category, you can do it like this: Category:Ordinary differential equations. --Boris Tsirelson 21:56, 5 May 2012 (CEST)

Done. Thanks! BTW, I still hesitate how to deal with multiple "Primary" classification. Ulf corrected me that MSN indeed requires only one primary class, so apparently either my memory betrayed me, or the editors of MR did the last choice for me...

Sometimes I gave a secondary class only because I could not give another primary. But I was prepared to have troubles; every classification makes troubles (is there some Goedel-type theorem for it?);
