System of differential equations $x'=f(y-x),\, y'=f(x-y)$ I have a problem regarding differential equations, $f$ is increasing. $x,y$ are dependent on $t$ 
$$ f(0)=0 $$
$$x'=f(y-x)$$
$$y'=f(x-y)$$
$$x(0)=1$$
$$y(0)=0$$
prove that when $x,y$ are the solutions of this equation then $$ \lim_{t \to \infty} x = \lim_{t \to\infty}y $$
So far I have managed to see that $x'(0)=f(-1)$ and $y'(0)=f(1)$ which implies that $x'(0)&lt;0$ and $y'(0)&gt;0$ and basically $x'(t)&lt;0$, $y'(t)&gt;0$ as $x&gt;y$ so as $f$ is increasing and $x$ is declining with $t$ and $y$ is increasing with $t$, the derivatives of $x$ and $y$ will be declining and increasing respectivly and they will have the boundary. Can anyone help from this on?
First we note, that $\lim_{t\rightarrow \infty} x = x_\infty$ indeed exists. This is because $x$ is decreasing monotone. On the other hand $y_\infty$ exists aswell. We have $x_\infty \geq y_\infty$, because if there is a $t_0$ with $x(t_0)=y(t_0)$ we have $x'(t_0)=y'(t_0)$ and this will be $x_\infty$.

Now assume that $x_\infty &gt;y_\infty$. The genral solution of a differential equation is:
$$x(t) = x(0)+ \int_0^t f(x(t)-y(t)dt$$
But we then would have 
$$\lim_{t\rightarrow \infty} x(t) =x(0) +\int_0^t f(y-x)dt \leq\lim_{t\rightarrow \infty} x(0) +\int_0^t f(y_\infty-x_\infty)dt =-\infty $$

This however contradicts that $x_\infty&gt;y_\infty$
Let $u=y-x$. Then 
$$
\frac{du}{dt}=\frac{dy}{dt}-\frac{dx}{dt}=f(-u)-f(u)
$$

Which is automatic with an equilibrium solution $u=0$. Note that your initial conditions become $u(0)=-1$

For $u&lt;0$ since $f$ is increasing $f(-u)-f(u)&gt;0$ giving $u$ is increasing (for all $u&lt;0$). Assuming $u$ is a continuous solution it would need to pass through $u=0$ but cannot actually exceed this value because of the equilibrium there. so $\lim_{t\to \infty} u=0$ Thus $\lim_{t\to \infty} y-x =0$. So if either of the limits $\lim_{t \to 0} x$ or $\lim_{t \to 0} y$ exist (and are real) they must be equal. If they're $\pm \infty$ they also must be the same one.
