Dynamical properties of ultradiscrete Hopf bifurcation, similar to those of the standard Hopf bifurcation, are discussed by proposing a simple model of ultradiscrete equations with max-plus algebra. In ultradiscrete Hopf bifurcation, limit…
Bifurcations leading to complex dynamical behaviour of non-linear systems are often encountered when the characteristics of feedback circuits in the system are varied. In systems with many unknown or varying parameters, it is an…
In a previous paper, the authors developed a method for computing normal forms of dynamical systems with a coupled cell network structure. We now apply this theory to one-parameter families of homogeneous feed-forward chains with…

Bistability is a key property of many systems arising in the nonlinear sciences. For example, it appears in many partial differential equations (PDEs). For scalar bistable reaction-diffusions PDEs, the bistable case even has take on…
The spiking properties of a subcritical Hopf oscillator with a time delayed nonlinear feedback is investigated. Finite time delay is found to significantly affect both the statistics and the fine structure of the spiking behavior. These…
We study a family of non-linear McKean-Vlasov SDEs driven by a Poisson measure, modelling the mean-field asymptotic of a network of generalized Integrate-and-Fire neurons. We give sufficient conditions to have periodic solutions through a…
In aggregation-fragmentation processes, a steady state is usually reached in the long time limit. This indicates the existence of a fixed point in the underlying system of ordinary differential equations. The next simplest possibility is an…
Noise has significant impact on nonlinear phenomena. Here we demonstrate that, in opposition to previous assumptions, additive noise interfere with the linear stability of scalar nonlinear systems when these are subject to time delay. We…
We develop the dichotomy spectrum for random dynamical system and demonstrate its use in the characterization of pitchfork bifurcations for random dynamical systems with additive noise. Crauel and Flandoli had shown earlier that adding…
In this work we prove occurrence of a super-critical Hopf bifurcation in a model of white blood cell formation structured by three maturation stages. We provide an explicit analytical expression for the bifurcation point depending on model…
We present a result concerning the mean value of orbits emerging from Hopf bifurcations. We then apply this result to identify a new phenomenon termed {\it oscillation-induced gain modulation}. A Hopf bifurcation of a system $\dot{x} = f(x;…
This paper focuses on the Hopf bifurcation in an activator-inhibitor system without diffusion which can be modeled as a delay differential equation. The main result of this paper is the existence of the Poincar\'e-Lindstedt series to all…
In this paper, dynamical systems theory and bifurcation theory are applied to investi- gate the rich dynamical behaviours observed in three simple disease models. The 2- and 3-dimensional models we investigate have arisen in previous…
Protein phosphorylation cycles are important mechanisms of the post translational modification of a protein and as such an integral part of intracellular signaling and control. We consider the sequential phosphorylation and…
In this paper, we consider the diffusive Nicholson's blowflies model in spatially heterogeneous environment when the diffusion rate is large. We show that the ratio of the average of the maximum per capita egg production rate to that of the…
