**In short:** What can we say about the set of all solutions of an ordinary differential equation (ODE) when we there is no uniqueness?


Consider the ODE

   $f:D\to \mathbb{R}, \quad D\subseteq \mathbb{R}^2,$

   $y'(x) = f(x,y),\quad y(x_0 ) = y_0, \quad (x_0,y_0 )\in D   .$

Two fundamental theorems are:

 1. If $f\in C(D)$, then there exists a neighbourhood of $x_0$ for which there is a solution $y(x) $ [Peano][1].
 2. If $f$ is also Lipschitz in $y$, then there exists a neighbourhood of $x_0$ in which $y(x)$ exist and is a unique solution.[Picard Lindelöf][2].




The natural question is

> What can be generally said about the set of all solutions when there is no uniqueness, i.e. $f$ is continuous but not Lipschitz?
