The stability of the equilibrium solution is analyzed for coupled systems of retarded functional differential equations near a supercritical Hopf bifurcation. Necessary and sufficient conditions are derived for asymptotic stability under general coupling conditions. It is shown that the largest eigenvalue of the graph Laplacian completely characterizes the effect of the connection topology on t...

Time-delayed feedback control was introduced by Pyragas in 1992 as a general method for stabilizing an unstable periodic orbit of a given continuous-time dynamical system. The analysis of Pyragas control focused on its application to the normal form of a subcritical Hopf bifurcation, and it was initially concerned with stabilization near the Hopf bifurcation. A recent study considered this norm...

This paper is devoted to the analysis of a maturity structured system of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) populations in the bone marrow. The model is a system of differential equations with several time delays. We discuss the stability of equilibria and perform the analysis of Hopf bifurcation. More precisely, we first obtain a set of improved sufficient conditions ensuring the global asymptotica...

Analysis and controlling of bifurcation for a class of chaotic Van der PolDuffing system with multiple unknown parameters are conducted. The stability of the equilibrium of the system is studied by using Routh-Hurwitz criterion, and the critical value of Hopf bifurcation is investigated. Based on the center manifold theory and normal form reduction, the stability index of bifurcation solution i...

A delayed Lotka-Volterra two-species predator-prey system of population allelopathy with discrete delay is considered. By linearizing the system at the positive equilibrium and analyzing the associated characteristic equation, the asymptotic stability of the positive equilibrium is investigated and Hopf bifurcations are demonstrated. Furthermore, the direction of Hopf bifurcation and the stabil...

By incorporating the time delay due to the period that computers use antivirus software to clean the virus into the SLBRS model a delayed SLBRS computer virus model is proposed in this paper. The dynamical behaviors which include local stability and Hopf bifurcation are investigated by regarding the delay as bifurcating parameter. Specially, direction and stability of the Hopf bifurcation are d...

In this paper, a recharge-discharge oscillator model for the EI Niño and southern oscillation with different delays is investigated. The conditions which ensure the local stability and the existence of Hopf bifurcation at the zero equilibrium of the model are obtained. It shows that the two different time delays have different effect on the dynamical behavior of the model. An example together w...

This paper focuses on the delay induced Hopf bifurcation in a dual model of Internet congestion control algorithms which can be modeled as a time-delay system described by a one-order delay differential equation (DDE). By choosing communication delay as the bifurcation parameter, we demonstrate that the system loses its stability and a Hopf bifurcation occurs when communication delay passes thr...
