An explicit general formula is proposed for controlling Hopf bifurcation using state feedback. This method can be used to either delay (or even eliminate) an existing Hopf bifurcation or change a subcritical Hopf bifurcation to supercritical. The Lorenz system is used to illustrate the application of the formula.

In this paper, a delayed physiological control system is investigated. The sufficient conditions for stability of positive equilibrium and existence of local Hopf bifurcation are derived. Furthermore, global existence of periodic solutions is established by using the global Hopf bifurcation theory. Finally, numerical examples are given to support the theoretical analysis. Keywords—Physiological...

In this paper, a modified delayed mathematical model for the dynamics of HIV with cure rate is considered. By regarding the time delay as bifurcation parameter, stability and existence of local Hopf bifurcation are studied by analyzing the transcendental characteristic equation. Then the global existence of bifurcating periodic solutions is established with the assistance of global Hopf bifurca...

Complex dynamics in the reduced swing equations of a power system are investigated. As the change of bifurcation parameter μ, the system exhibits complex bifurcations, such as saddle-node bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation, cyclic fold bifurcation and torus bifurcations and complex dynamics, such as periodic orbits, quasiperiodic orbits, period-doubling orbits and chaotic attractors which link with ...

Hopf bifurcation theory for an oscillator subject to a weak feedback but a large delay is investigated for a specific laser system. The problem is motivated by semiconductor laser instabilities which are initiated by undesirable optical feedbacks. Most of these instabilities are starting from a single Hopf bifurcation. Because of the large delay, a delayed amplitude appears in the slow time bif...

This article concerns a symmetrical Lotka-Volterra predator-prey system with delays. By analyzing the associated characteristic equation of the original system at the positive equilibrium and choosing the delay as the bifurcation parameter, the local stability and Hopf bifurcation of the system are investigated. Using the normal form theory, we also establish the direction and stability of the ...

We study analytically the (N-1)-fold degenerate Hopf bifurcation at which N stationary modes with identical parameters become unstable in a model of a solid-state laser with intracavity second harmonic generation. We use the normal form method and exploit the symmetries of the problem. Up to N=3, stable periodic antiphased solutions emerge from the Hopf bifurcation. For N=4, stable quasiperiodi...

About a three-dimensional autonomous continuous Lorenz-like system. Through the full analysis of equilibrium points, we can derive the parameter condition of Hopf bifurcation; Next we adopt a Washout filter controller designed independently to control the Hopf bifurcation of the system, and the effect of the controller’s parameters on the position of bifurcation point, the bifurcation type, and...

This paper discusses a problem of the Hopf bifurcation control for a mathematical model of intracellular calcium oscillations by calculating the curvature coefficient of limit cycle and the bifurcation control theory. We find that the appearance and disappearance of calcium oscillations in this system are due to the supercritical and subcritical Hopf bifurcation of equilibrium points, respectiv...

We describe the qualitative dynamics and bifurcation set for a laser with injected signal for small cavity detunings. The main organizing center is the Hopf-saddle-node bifurcation from where a secondary Hopf bifurcation of a periodic orbit originates. We show that the laser’s stable cw solution existing for low injections, also suffers a secondary Hopf bifurcation. The resonance structure of b...
