Abstract

In this paper, we use the equivariant degree theory to establish a global bifurcation result for the existence of non-stationary branches of solutions to a nonlinear, two-parameter family of hyperbolic wave equations with local delay and non-trivial damping. As a motivating example, we consider an application of our result to a system of NN identical vibrating strings with dihedral coupling relations.
