 Exact quadratic basin boundary

For $\dot{z}=Az+\Vert z{\Vert }^{2}z$, suppose a positive-definite matrix $P$ solves $A^{T}P+PA=-2I$. The quadratic function $V=z^{T}Pz$ then obeys $\dot{V}=2\Vert z{\Vert }^2(V-1)$. Its unit ellipsoid separates decay toward the origin from escape. In a planar system with nonzero angular speed it is an invariant periodic orbit.
