A node is a specific type of equilibrium point in a dynamical system where trajectories in the phase portrait converge to or diverge from the point depending on the system's parameters. Nodes are characterized by stable or unstable behavior, indicating how the system responds to perturbations near this point. Their classification as either a stable node or an unstable node gives insight into the system's long-term behavior and stability properties.
congrats on reading the definition of Node. now let's actually learn it.
