It was shown in [Li & Xiao, 2007] that in a predator–prey model of Leslie type with simplified Holling type IV functional response some complex bifurcations can occur simultaneously for some values of parameters, such as codimension 1 subcritical Hopf bifurcation and codimension 2 Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation. In this paper, we show that for the same model there exists a unique degenerate positi...

In this paper we deal with reversible vector fields on a 2-dimensional manifold having a codimension one submanifold as its symmetry axis. We classify generically the one parameter families of such vector fields. As a matter of fact, aspects of structural stability and codimension one bifurcation are analysed.

We present the underlying dynamics of snap-through structures that exhibit twinkling. Twinkling occurs when the nonlinear structure is loaded slowly and the masses snap-through, converting the low frequency input to high frequency oscillations. We have studied a nonlinear spring-mass chain loaded by a quasistatic pull. The spring forces are assumed to be cubic with intervals of negative stiffne...

In this study, a model of active control system with time delay feedback is investigated, and time delays were set in control loop. An efficient method was used to analyze the stability of the system. By solving the characteristic equation, the local stability and the existence of codimension one bifurcation (Hopf bifurcation and fold bifurcation) were obtained. Regarding the time delay as bifu...

Bifurcation problems in which periodic boundary conditions (PBC) or Neumann boundary conditions (NBC) are imposed often involve partial differential equations that have Eu-clidean symmetry. In this case posing the bifurcation problem with either PBC or NBC on a finite domain can lead to a symmetric bifurcation problem for which the manifest symmetries of the domain do not completely characteriz...

In this paper, a mathematically rigorous analysis for bifurcation structure of a spatially uniform stationary solution in nonlinear Schrödinger equations with a cubic nonlinearity and a dissipation, and with a detuning term is presented. Numerically, it has been reported that the “snake bifurcation” occurs, but this equation does not have the variational (Hamiltonian) structure. Therefore, both...

A tangent double Hopf bifurcation has been found in a rotating cylinder flow driven by the counter-rotation of the top endwall. The codimension-3 tangent double Hopf point has been located using linear stability analysis. The nonlinear analysis of the multiple solutions in a neighborhood of this bifurcation point is performed by numerical solutions of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equatio...

In this paper we study Arnold’s tongues in a Z2-symmetric electronic circuit. They appear in a rich bifurcation scenario organized by a degenerate codimension-three Hopf–pitchfork bifurcation. On the one hand, we describe the transition open-to-closed of the resonance zones, finding two different types of Takens–Bogdanov bifurcations (quadratic and cubic homoclinic-type) of periodic orbits. The...

The localization of critical parameter sets called bifurcations is often a central task of the analysis of a nonlinear dynamical system. Bifurcations of codimension 1 that can be directly observed in nature and experiments form surfaces in three dimensional parameter spaces. In this paper we propose an algorithm that combines adaptive triangulation with the theory of complex systems to compute ...
