We investigate the maximum number of limit cycles bifurcating from the period annulus of a family of cubic polynomial differential centers when it is perturbed inside the class of all cubic piecewise smooth polynomials. The family…
Given a $C^{1,1}_\mathrm{loc}$ lower bounded function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ definable in an o-minimal structure on the real field, we show that the singular perturbation $\epsilon \searrow 0$ in the heavy ball system…
Nonsmooth formulations of physical models are common, particularly in climate modeling. However, in many of these models, there is little justification for this modeling choice, and no mathematical indication that the resulting behavior in…
Systems that are not smooth can undergo bifurcations that are forbidden in smooth systems. We review some of the phenomena that can occur for piecewise-smooth, continuous maps and flows when a fixed point or an equilibrium collides with a…
This paper provides conditions to ensure contractive behavior of Filippov solutions generated by multi-modal piecewise smooth (PWS) systems. These conditions are instrumental in analyzing the asymptotic behavior of PWS systems, such as…
We consider an ecological model consisting of two species of predators competing for their common prey with explicit interference competition. With a proper rescaling, the model is portrayed as a singularly perturbed system with one-fast…
Experiments observing the liquid surface in a vertically oscillating container have indicated that modeling the dynamics of such systems require maps that admit states at infinity. In this paper we investigate the bifurcations in such a…
We provide a complete symmetry-breaking bifurcation control for equivariant smooth differential systems with Bogdanov-Takens singularities. Controller coefficient space is partitioned by critical controller sets into different connected…
Particles whose shapes couple translation to rotation display a rich array of behaviors as they sediment at low Reynolds number. We introduce a unifying perspective in which the possible dynamical regimes and bifurcations between them can…
In this work, we study the dynamics of piecewise smooth systems on a codimension-2 transverse intersection of two codimension-1 discontinuity sets. The Filippov convention can be extended to such intersections, but this approach does not…
We consider generic families $X_\param$ of smooth dynamical systems depending on parameters $\param\in P$ where $P$ is a 2-dimensional simply connected domain and assume that each $X_\param$ only has a finite number of restpoints and…
A boundary equilibrium bifurcation (BEB) in a hybrid dynamical system occurs when a regular equilibrium collides with a switching surface in phase space. This causes a transition to a pseudo-equilibrium embedded within the switching…
In this work we study the Brusselator - a prototypical model for chemical oscillations - under the assumption that the bifurcation parameter is of order $O(1/\epsilon)$ for positive $\epsilon\ll 1$. The dynamics of this mathematical model…
Fast-slow dynamical systems have subsystems that evolve on vastly different timescales, and bifurcations in such systems can arise due to changes in any or all subsystems. We classify bifurcations of the critical set (the equilibria of the…
We consider boundary value problems for semilinear hyperbolic systems of the type $$ \partial_tu_j + a_j(x,\la)\partial_xu_j + b_j(x,\la,u) = 0, \; x\in(0,1), \;j=1,\dots,n $$ with smooth coefficient functions $a_j$ and $b_j$ such that…
We report results of the analysis of the spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) in the basic (actually, simplest) model which is capable to produce the SSB phenomenology in the one-dimensional setting. It is based on the Gross-Pitaevskii -…
We consider instabilities of a single mode with finite wavenumber in inversion symmetric spatially one dimensional systems, where the character of the bifurcation changes from sub- to supercritical behaviour. Starting from a general…
We study the bifurcation of limit cycles from the periodic orbits of $2n$--dimensional linear centers $\dot{x} = A_0 x$ when they are perturbed inside classes of continuous and discontinuous piecewise linear differential systems of control…
In this paper a model reduction technique is introduced for piecewise-smooth (PWS) vector fields, whose trajectories fall into a Banach space, but the domain of definition of the vector fields is a non-dense subset of the Banach space. The…
Impacting mechanical systems with suitable parameter settings exhibit a large amplitude chaotic oscillation close to the grazing with the impacting surface. The cause behind this uncertainty is the square root singularity and the occurrence…
