Title: Weak Convergence and Limits of Solutions to Nonlinear Differntial Equations

Abstract: This will be a very informal talk, in which I will first present a brief overview of challenges and prospects for passing to limits involving solutions of nonlinear differential equations.

 I will next present a fairly detailed illustration of these issues for the special case of a nonlinear inverted pendulum.
