Bifurcation problems in which periodic boundary conditions (PBC) or Neumann boundary conditions (NBC) are imposed often involve partial differential equations that have Euclidean symmetry. In this case posing the bifurcation problem with…
We unfold the codimension-two simultaneous occurrence of a border-collision bifurcation and a period-doubling bifurcation for a general piecewise-smooth, continuous map. We find that, with sufficient non-degeneracy conditions, a locus of…

An attractor of a piecewise-smooth continuous system of differential equations can bifurcate from a stable equilibrium to a more complicated invariant set when it collides with a switching manifold under parameter variation. Here numerical…

Numerical bifurcation analysis, and in particular two-parameter continuation, is used in consort with numerical simulation to reveal complicated dynamics in the Mackey-Glass equation for moderate values of the delay close to the onset of…
The term boundary crisis refers to the destruction or creation of a chaotic attractor when parameters vary. The locus of a boundary crisis may contain regions of positive Lebesgue measure marking the transition from regular dynamics to the…

Piecewise-smooth maps are used as discrete-time models of dynamical systems whose evolution is governed by different equations under different conditions (e.g.~switched control systems). By assigning a symbol to each region of phase space…
The origin of spectral singularities in finite-gap singly periodic PT-symmetric quantum systems is investigated. We show that they emerge from a limit of band-edge states in a doubly periodic finite gap system when the imaginary period…
In this paper we investigate the crossing-sliding bifurcations of planar Filippov systems with $\mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetry. Such bifurcations are triggered by the perturbations of a critical crossing cycle and constitute an important class of…
Perturbed plane Couette flow containing a thin spanwise-oriented ribbon undergoes a subcritical bifurcation at Re = 230 to a steady 3D state containing streamwise vortices. This bifurcation is followed by several others giving rise to a…
We revisit a problem considered by Chow and Hale on the existence of subharmonic solutions for perturbed systems. In the analytic setting, under more general (weaker) conditions, we prove their results on the existence of bifurcation curves…

Asymptotic stability is with no doubts an essential property to be studied for any system. This analysis often becomes very difficult for coupled systems and even harder when different timescales appear. The singular perturbation method…
