We analyze rate-dependent tipping in a fast/slow system with an equilibrium near the fold of a critical manifiold. We find a Hopf bifurcation as the rate parameter increases in the reduced co-moving system. This implies the growth of a…
The structural bifurcation of a 2D divergence free vector field $\mathbf{u}(\cdot, t)$ when $\mathbf{u}(\cdot, t_0)$ has an interior isolated singular point $\mathbf{x}_0$ of zero index has been studied by Ma and Wang. Although in the class…
