►If all solutions of (28.2.1) are bounded when along the real axis, then the corresponding pair of parameters is called stable.
…
►For example, positive real values of with comprise stable pairs, as do values of and that correspond to real, but noninteger, values of .
►However, if , then always comprises an unstable pair.
…Also, all nontrivial solutions of (28.2.1) are unbounded on .
►For real
