Hello guys . I obtained a 3 dimensional dynamical system , how can I find its critical points with using software ? I tried it handy but its too involved to compute handy .

A critical point of a dynamical system is a state at which the system remains unchanged over time. It is a point where the derivative of the system's state with respect to time is equal to zero, meaning there is no change in the system's behavior.
To find critical points of a dynamical system, you must first set up the equations that describe the system's behavior. Then, you can use mathematical techniques such as differentiation and solving systems of equations to find the points where the system's derivative is equal to zero.
Finding critical points allows us to understand the behavior of a dynamical system by identifying the states where the system remains unchanged. These points can also provide insight into the stability of the system and its long-term behavior.
Some common methods for finding critical points of a dynamical system include setting the derivative of the system's state with respect to time equal to zero and solving for the state variables, using computational tools such as software programs or graphing calculators, and using numerical methods such as Newton's method or gradient descent.
No, critical points are not the only important points in a dynamical system. Other important points include stable and unstable equilibrium points, limit cycles, and bifurcation points. These points can also provide valuable information about the behavior of the system.
