We study two-dimensional, two-piece, piecewise-linear maps having two saddle fixed points. Such maps reduce to a four-parameter family and are well known to have a chaotic attractor throughout open regions of parameter space. The purpose of…
In this paper, we provide a rigorous description of the birth of canard limit cycles in slow-fast systems in $\mathbb R^3$ through the folded saddle-node of type II and the singular Hopf bifurcation. In particular, we prove -- in the…
We analytically derive an equation describing vesicle evolution in a fluid where some stationary flow is excited regarding that the vesicle shape is close to a sphere. A character of the evolution is governed by two dimensionless…
The saddle-node bifurcation is the simplest example of a generic bifurcation in smooth ordinary differential equations, and is associated with the creation or destruction of a pair of equilibria. In this paper we examine the unfolding of…
We review the theory of strange attractors and their bifurcations. All known strange attractors may be subdivided into the following three groups: hyperbolic, pseudo-hyperbolic ones and quasi-attractors. For the first ones the description…
In this work we consider families of smooth vector fields having a persistent polycycle with $n$ hyperbolic saddles. We derive the asymptotic expansion of the return map associated to the polycycle, determining explicitly its leading terms.…
A natural explicit condition is given ensuring that an action of the multiplicative monoid of non-negative reals on a manifold F comes from homotheties of a vector bundle structure on F, or, equivalently, from an Euler vector field. This is…
In this paper we prove the breakdown of the two-dimensional stable and unstable manifolds associated to two saddle-focus points which appear in the unfoldings of the Hopf-zero singulariry. The method consists in obtaining an asymptotic…
The saddle-node bifurcation on an invariant circle (SNIC) is one of the codimension-one routes to creation or destruction of a periodic orbit in a continuous-time dynamical system. It governs the transition from resting behaviour to…
In this paper we provide the stability of generic polycycles of hybrid planar vector fields, extending previous known results in the literature. The polycycles considered here may have hyperbolic saddles, tangential singularities and jump…
We study various types of shadowing properties and their implication for C1 generic vector fields. We show that, generically, any of the following three hypotheses implies that an isolated set is topologically transitive and hyperbolic: (i)…
We show that except two special cases, the sphere bundle of a vector bundle over a simply connected $4$-manifold splits after looping. In particular, this implies that though there are infinitely many inequivalent sphere bundles of a given…
A class of n-dimensional Poisson systems reducible to an unperturbed harmonic oscillator shall be considered. In such case, perturbations leaving invariant a given symplectic leaf shall be investigated. Our purpose will be to analyze the…
Let $X$ be a planar smooth vector field with a polycycle $\Gamma^n$ with $n$ sides and all its corners, that are at most $n$ singularities, being hyperbolic saddles. In this paper we study the cyclicity of $\Gamma^n$ in terms of the…
In this paper we study unfoldings of saddle-nodes and their Dulac time. By unfolding a saddle-node, saddles and nodes appear. In the first result (Theorem A) we prove uniform regularity by which orbits and their derivatives arrive at a…
We prove that the maximal number of limit cycles which bifurcate from an open period annulus under a given multi-parameter analytic deformation of a given analytic vector field is the same as in an appropriate one-parameter analytic…
