The purpose of this article to provide an explicit example where continuation based on the homotopy method fails. The example is a one-parameter homotopy for periodic orbits between two well-known nonlinear systems, the normal form of the Hopf bifurcation and the van der Pol system. Our analysis shows that various types of obstructions can make approximation over the whole range of the homotopy...

in the present work, a hybrid of fourier transform and homotopy perturbation method is developed for solving the non-homogeneous partial differential equations with variable coefficients. the fourier transform is employed with combination of homotopy perturbation method (hpm), the so called fourier transform homotopy perturbation method (fthpm) to solve the partial differential equations. the c...

In this paper, we propose a new numerical algorithm, namely q-homotopy analysis Sumudu transform method (q-HASTM), to obtain the approximate solution for the nonlinear fractional dynamical model of interpersonal and romantic relationships. The suggested algorithm examines the dynamics of love affairs between couples. The q-HASTM is a creative combination of Sumudu transform technique, q-homotop...

We have used the homotopy analysis method (HAM) to obtain solution of Davey-Stewartson equations of fractional order. The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. The results obtained by this method have been compared with the exact solutions. Stability and convergence of the proposed approach is investigated. The effects of fractional derivatives for the systems under considerat...

The purpose of this paper is to show that ideas and techniques of the homotopy continuation method can be used to find the complete set of eigenpairs of a symmetric matrix. The homotopy defined by Chow, Mallet- Paret and York [I] may be used to solve this problem with 2""-n curves diverging to infinity which for large n causes a great inefficiency. M. Chu 121 introduced a homotopy equation...

A. Noor et al. [7] analyze a technique by combining the variational iteration method and the homotopy perturbation method which is called the variational homotopy perturbation method (VHPM) for solving higher dimensional initial boundary value problems. In this paper, we consider the VHPM to obtain exact solution to Gas Dynamics equation.
