We study pseudo-simple heteroclinic cycles for a $\Gamma$-equivariant system in $R^4$ with finite $\Gamma\subset O(4)$, and their nearby dynamics. In particular, in a first step towards a full classification - analogous to that which exists…
In generic dynamical systems heteroclinic cycles are invariant sets of codimension at least one, but they can be structurally stable in systems which are equivariant under the action of a symmetry group, due to the existence of…
The paper presents a complete study of simple homoclinic cycles in R^5. We find all symmetry groups Gamma such that a Gamma-equivariant dynamical system in R^5 can possess a simple homoclinic cycle. We introduce a classification of simple…
Heteroclinic cycles are sequences of equilibria along with trajectories that connect them in a cyclic manner. We investigate a class of robust heteroclinic cycles that does not satisfy the usual condition that all connections between…
Using a vector field in $\mathbb{R}^4$, we provide an example of a robust heteroclinic cycle between two equilibria that displays a mix of features exhibited by well-known types of low-dimensional heteroclinic structures, including simple,…
We investigate stability of a new class of heteroclinic cycles that we call heteroclinic cycles of type Y. The cycles can be regarded as a generalisation of heteroclinic cycles of type Z introduced in [Podvigina, Nonlinearity 25, 2012]. The…
The stability of heteroclinic cycles may be obtained from the value of the local stability index along each connection of the cycle. We establish a way of calculating the local stability index for quasi-simple cycles: cycles whose…
Dynamical systems that are invariant under the action of a non-trivial symmetry group can possess structurally stable heteroclinic cycles. In this paper we study stability properties of a class of structurally stable heteroclinic cycles in…
We study heteroclinic networks in $\mathbb{R}^4$, made of a certain type of simple robust heteroclinic cycle. In simple cycles all the connections are of saddle-sink type in two-dimensional fixed-point spaces. We show that there exist only…
This paper analyses the stability of cycles within a heteroclinic network lying in a three-dimensional manifold formed by six cycles, for a one-parameter model developed in the context of game theory. We show the asymptotic stability of the…
We describe all heteroclinic networks in $\mathbb{R}^4$ made of simple heteroclinic cycles of types $B$ or $C$, with at least one common connecting trajectory. For networks made of cycles of type $B$, we study the stability of the cycles…
In this paper we study the existence of heteroclinic cycles in generic unfoldings of nilpotent singularities. Namely we prove that any nilpotent singularity of codimension four in $\mathbb{R}^4$ unfolds generically a bifurcation…
This article is concerned with three heteroclinic cycles forming a heteroclinic network in ${\mathbb R}^6$. The stability of the cycles and of the network are studied. The cycles are of a type that has not been studied before, and provide…
We study a system of ordinary differential equations in R5 that is used as a model both in population dynamics and in game theory, and is known to exhibit a heteroclinic network consisting in the union of four types of elementary…
We provide conditions guaranteeing that certain classes of robust heteroclinic networks are asymptotically stable. We study the asymptotic stability of ac-networks --- robust heteroclinic networks that exist in smooth ${\mathbb…
We describe an example of a structurally stable heteroclinic network for which nearby orbits exhibit irregular but sustained switching between the various sub-cycles in the network. The mechanism for switching is the presence of spiralling…
A new type of asymptotic behavior in a game dynamics system is discovered. The system exhibits behavior which combines chaotic motion and attraction to heteroclinic cycles; the trajectory visits several unstable stationary states repeatedly…
We study diffeomorphisms $f$ with heterodimensional cycles, that is, heteroclinic cycles associated to saddles $p$ and $q$ with different indices. Such a cycle is called fragile if there is no diffeomorphism close to $f$ with a robust cycle…
In this paper we study structurally stable homoclinic classes. In a natural way, the structural stability for an individual homoclinic class is defined through the continuation of periodic points. Since the homoclinic classes is not…
Stable and unstable manifolds, originating from hyperbolic cycles, fundamentally characterize the behaviour of dynamical systems in chaotic regions. This letter demonstrates that their shifts under perturbation, crucial for chaos control,…
