Robust heteroclinic cycles in equivariant dynamical systems in R^4 have been a subject of intense scientific investigation because, unlike heteroclinic cycles in R^3, they can have an intricate geometric structure and complex asymptotic…

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…

We classify simple heteroclinic networks for a $\Gamma$-equivariant system in ${\mathbb R}^4$ with finite $\Gamma \subset {\rm O}(4)$, proceeding as follows: we define a graph associated with a given $\Gamma \subset {\rm O}(n)$ and identify…

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…

We consider a $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-equivariant 4-dimensional system of ODEs with a smooth first integral $H$ and a saddle equilibrium state $O$. We assume that there exists a transverse homoclinic orbit $\Gamma$ to $O$ that approaches $O$ along…

We consider a (mathbb{Z}_2)-equivariant flow in (mathbb{R}^{4}) with an integral of motion and a hyperbolic equilibrium with a transverse homoclinic orbit (Gamma). We provide criteria for the existence of stable and unstable invariant…

We analyze the generating mechanisms for heteroclinic cycles in $\mathbb{Z}_2\times\mathbb{Z}_2\times\mathbb{Z}_2$--equivariant ODEs, not involving Hopf bifurcations. Such cycles have been observed in particle physics systems with 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…

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…

The family $\mathcal{OG}(4)$ consisting of graph-group pairs $(\Gamma, G)$, where $\Gamma$ is a finite, connected, 4-valent graph admitting a $G$-vertex-, and $G$-edge-transitive, but not $G$-arc-transitive action, has recently been…

Networks of interacting nodes connected by edges arise in almost every branch of scientific enquiry. The connectivity structure of the network can force the existence of invariant subspaces, which would not arise in generic dynamical…

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 analyze a generic dynamical system with $\mathbb{D}_2$ constructed via a Cayley graph. We study the Hopf bifurcation and find conditions for obtaining a unique branch of periodic solutions. Our main result comes from…

We consider families of planar polynomial vector fields of degree $n$ and study the cyclicity of a type of unbounded polycycle~$\Gamma$ called hemicycle. Compactified to the Poincar\'e disc,~$\Gamma$ consists of an affine straight line…

Let $\mathcal{OG}(4)$ denote the family of all graph-group pairs $(\Gamma, G)$ where $\Gamma$ is finite, 4-valent, connected, and $G$-oriented ($G$-half-arc-transitive). A subfamily of $\mathcal{OG}(4)$ has recently been identified as…

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…

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…

Heteroclinic cycles and networks are structures in dynamical systems composed of invariant sets and connecting heteroclinic orbits, and can be robust in systems with invariant subspaces. The usual method for analysing the stability of…
