In this paper we study the qualitative behavior of a predator–prey system with nonmonotonic functional response. The system undergoes a series of bifurcations including the saddle-node bifurcation, the supercritical Hopf bifurcation, and the homoclinic bifurcation. For different parameter values the system could have a limit cycle or a homoclinic loop, or exhibit the socalled “paradox of enrich...

In this paper, we consider a two-dimensional delay differential system with two delays. By analyzing the distribution of eigenvalues, linear stability of the equilibria and existence of Hopf, Bautin, and Hopf–Hopf bifurcations are obtained in which the time delays are used as the bifurcation parameter. General formula for the direction, period, and stability of the bifurcated periodic solutions...

This paper deals with an analytical investigation of the nonlinear behavior of an indirect filedoriented control of induction motor. In this context, steady-state solutions in mathematical model of this machine are discussed and an analytical study of the generic codimension one bifurcation, Hopf and Fold bifurcations, was made. Of special interest here is the codimension two bifurcation namely...

We investigate dynamical system having a special structure namely a codimension-one invariant manifold that is preserved under the variation of parameters. We derive conditions such that bifurcations of codimension-one and of codimension-two occur in the system. The normal forms of these bifurcations are derived explicitly. Both local and global bifurcations are analysed and yield the transcrit...

A systematic study of closed classical orbits of the hydrogen atom in crossed electric and magnetic fields is presented. We develop a local bifurcation theory for closed orbits, which is analogous to the well-known bifurcation theory for periodic orbits and allows identifying the generic closed-orbit bifurcations of codimension 1. Several bifurcation scenarios are described in detail. They are ...

Oneand two-parameter Hopf bifurcation behavior is analyzed for several variants of the Citri-Epstein mechanism of the chlorite-iodide reaction. The coefficients of an equation for the amplitude of oscillations (the universal unfolding of the Hopf bifurcation) are evaluated numerically. Local bifurcation diagrams and bifurcation sets are derived from the amplitude equation. Suband supercritical ...

We unfold the codimension-two simultaneous occurrence of a border-collision bifurcation and a period-doubling bifurcation for a general piecewise-smooth, continuous map. We find that with sufficient nondegeneracy conditions, a locus of period-doubling bifurcations emanates nontangentially from a locus of border-collision bifurcations. The corresponding period-doubled solution undergoes a border...

An efficient method is proposed to study delay-induced strong resonant double Hopf bifurcation for nonlinear systems with time delay. As an illustration, the proposed method is employed to investigate the 1 : 2 double Hopf bifurcation in the van der Pol system with time delay. Dynamics arising from the bifurcation are classified qualitatively and expressed approximately in a closed form for eit...

In this paper, the global dynamic behaviors of an SEIQS epidemic system with a nonlinear incidence rate are investigated. At first, the stabilities of equilibria for the system are analyzed. Thus, the codimension-1 bifurcations including transcritical bifurcation, saddle-node bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation are discussed using bifurcation theory. In particular, codimension2 bifurcation (Bogdanov-...
