A stable focus refers to a type of equilibrium point in a dynamical system where trajectories spiral inward towards the equilibrium as time progresses. This characteristic indicates that, if the system is slightly perturbed, it will return to the equilibrium point over time, resulting in stability. The behavior of trajectories around a stable focus can be visualized through phase portraits, where they exhibit a spiral pattern converging towards the focus.
congrats on reading the definition of Stable Focus. now let's actually learn it.
