We study the dynamics of a damped harmonic oscillator in the presence of a retarded potential with state-dependent time-delayed feedback. In the limit of small time-delays, we show that the oscillator is equivalent to a Li\'enard system.…
Geometrical Singular Perturbation Theory has been successful to investigate a broad range of biological problems with different time scales. The aim of this paper is to apply this theory to a predator-prey model of modified Leslie-Gower…
We will consider two special families of polynomial perturbations of the linear center. For the resulting perturbed systems, which are generalized Li\'enard systems, we provide the exact upper bound for the number of limit cycles that…
We present a rigorous framework for the local analysis of canards and slow passages through bifurcations in a wide class of infinite-dimensional dynamical systems with time-scale separation. The framework is applicable to models where an…
Geometric singular perturbation theory provides a powerful mathematical framework for the analysis of 'stationary' multiple time-scale systems which possess a critical manifold, i.e. a smooth manifold of steady states for the limiting fast…
Using the saddle point method, we give an explicit form of the planar free energy and Wilson loops of unitary matrix models in the one-cut regime. The multi-critical unitary matrix models are shown to undergo third-order phase transitions…
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 show that there exist generic slow-fast systems with only one (time-scaling) parameter on the two-torus, which have canard cycles for arbitrary small values of this parameter. This is in drastic contrast with the planar case, where…
We analyze canard explosions in delayed differential equations with a one-dimensional slow manifold. This study is applied to explore the dynamics of the van der Pol slow-fast system with delayed self-coupling. In the absence of delays,…
In a previous paper we have proposed a new method for proving the existence of "canard solutions" for three and four-dimensional singularly perturbed systems with only one fast variable which improves the methods used until now. The aim of…
We investigate the KdV-Burgers and Gardner equations with dissipation and external perturbation terms by the approach of dynamical systems and Shil'nikov's analysis. The stability of the equilibrium point is considered, and Hopf…
In the context of a spatially extended model for the electrical activity in a pituitary lactotroph cell line, we establish that two delayed bifurcation phenomena from ODEs ---folded node canards and slow passage through Hopf bifurcations---…
This paper gives a new perspective on singular canards, which is topological in flavour. One key feature is that our construction does not rely on coordinates; consequently, the conditions for the existence of singular canards that we…
We classify the local bifurcations of one dov quantum billiards, showing that only saddle-center bifurcations can occur. We analyze the resulting planar system when there is no coupling in the superposition state. In so doing, we also…
In this article, we study a system of reaction-diffusion equations in which the diffusivities are widely separated. We report on the discovery of families of spatially periodic canard solutions that emerge from {\em singular Turing…
We study bifurcation behavior in periodic perturbations of two-dimensional symmetric systems exhibiting codimension-two bifurcations with a double eigenvalue when the frequencies of the perturbation terms are small. We transform the…
We revisit elliptic bursting dynamics from the viewpoint of torus canard solutions. We show that at the transition to and from elliptic burstings, classical or mixed-type torus canards can appear, the difference between the two being the…
Slow-fast systems on the two-torus are studied. As it was shown before, canard cycles are generic in such systems, which is in drastic contrast with the planar case. It is known that if the rotation number of the Poincare map is integer and…
The slow passage through a Hopf bifurcation leads to the delayed appearance of large amplitude oscillations. We construct a smooth scalar feedback control which suppresses the delay and causes the system to follow a stable equilibrium…
