We analyze situations where a saddle-node bifurcation occurs on a fractal basin boundary. Specifically, we are interested in what happens when a system parameter is slowly swept in time through the bifurcation. Such situations are known to…

For the family of Lozi maps, we study homoclinic points for the saddle fixed point $X$ in the first quadrant. Specifically, in the parameter space, we examine the boundary of the region in which homoclinic points for $X$ exist. For all…

As the parameters of a piecewise-smooth system of ODEs are varied, a periodic orbit undergoes a bifurcation when it collides with a surface where the system is discontinuous. Under certain conditions this is a grazing-sliding bifurcation.…
