Dynamical systems with a coupled cell network structure can display synchronous solutions, spectral degeneracies and anomalous bifurcation behavior. We explain these phenomena here for homogeneous networks, by showing that every homogeneous…
The analysis of network dynamics is oftentimes restricted to networks with one-dimensional internal dynamics. Here, we show how symmetry explains the relation between behavior of systems with one-dimensional internal dynamics and with…
We prove that a generic $k$-parameter bifurcation of a dynamical system with a monoid symmetry occurs along a generalized kernel or center subspace of a particular type. More precisely, any (complementable) subrepresentation $U$ is given a…
Coupled cell systems are dynamical systems associated to a network and synchrony subspaces, given by balanced colorings of the network, are invariant subspaces for every coupled cell systems associated to that network. Golubitsky and…
We consider homogeneous coupled cell networks with asymmetric inputs. We obtain general results concerning codimension-one steady-state bifurcations for networks with any number of cells and any number of asymmetric inputs. These results…
In his volume [5] on "Symmetry Breaking for Compact Lie Groups" Mike Field quotes a private communication by Jorge Ize claiming that any bifurcation problem with absolutely irreducible group action would lead to bifurcation of steady…
We study the behavior of solutions of mutually coupled equations in heterogeneous random graphs. Heterogeneity means that some equations receive many inputs whereas most of the equations are given only with a few connections. Starting from…
We demonstrate that solitary states can be widely observed for networks of coupled oscillators with local, non-local and global couplings, and they preserve in both thermodynamic and Hamiltonian limits. We show that depending on units' and…
Open dynamical systems are mathematical models of machines that take input, change their internal state, and produce output. For example, one may model anything from neurons to robots in this way. Several open dynamical systems can be…
Dynamical systems with a network structure can display anomalous bifurcations as a generic phenomenon. As an explanation for this it has been noted that homogeneous networks can be realized as quotient networks of so-called fundamental…
We study the dynamics of a degenerate parabolic equation with a variable, generally non-smooth diffusion coefficient, which may vanish at some points or be unbounded. We show the existence of a global branch of nonnegative stationary…
We describe a method to analyze and decompose the dynamics of a control system on a Lie group subject to symmetries. The method is based on the concept of generalized Young symmetrizers of representation theory. It naturally applies to the…
Localized phenomena abound in nature and throughout the physical sciences. Some universal mechanisms for localization have been characterized, such as in the snaking bifurcations of localized steady states in pattern-forming partial…
We investigate the emergence of complex dynamics in a system of coupled dissipative kicked rotors and show that critical transitions can be understood via bifurcations of simple states. We study multistability and bifurcations in the single…
Oscillatory dynamics are ubiquitous in biological networks. Possible sources of oscillations are well understood in low-dimensional systems, but have not been fully explored in high-dimensional networks. Here we study large networks…
We investigate dynamics and bifurcations in a mathematical model that captures electrochemical experiments on arrays of microelectrodes. In isolation, each individual microelectrode is described by a one-dimensional unit with a bistable…
In this work we identify and investigate a novel bifurcation in conserved systems. This secondary bifurcation stops active phase separation in its nonlinear regime. It is then either replaced by an extended, system-filling, spatially…
The internal state of a cell in a coupled cell network is often described by an element of a vector space. Synchrony or anti-synchrony occurs when some of the cells are in the same or the opposite state. Subspaces of the state space…
The dynamical behavior of networked systems is expected to reflect the features of their coupling structure. Yet, symmetry-broken solutions often occur in symmetrically coupled networks. An example is provided by the so-called solitary…
