Unfolding homoclinic tangencies is the main source of bifurcations in 2-dimensional (real or complex) dynamics. When studying this phenomenon, it is common to assume that tangencies are quadratic and unfold with positive speed. Adapting to…

We argue that a discrete Shilnikov attractor exists in the system of five identical globally coupled phase oscillators with biharmonic coupling. We explain the scenario that leads to birth of this kind of attractor and numerically…
We identify two rather novel types of (compound) dynamical bifurcations generated primarily by interactions of an invariant attracting submanifold with stable and unstable manifolds of hyperbolic fixed points. These bifurcation types -…
The paper introduces a new 4d dynamical system leading to a typical 4d strange attractor. Its focal statement appears in its total disconnection from previous 3D nonlinear systems.
Motivated by bouncing motion of an inelastic particle on a vibrating board, a simple two-dimensional map is constructed and its behavior is studied numerically. In addition to the typical route to chaos through a periodic doubling…
Strange nonchaotic attractors (SNAs) are observed in quasiperiodically driven time--delay systems. Since the largest Lyapunov exponent is nonpositive, trajectories in two such identical but distinct systems show the property of {\it…

Despite their apparent simplicity, random Boolean networks display a rich variety of dynamical behaviors. Much work has been focused on the properties and abundance of attractors. We here derive an expression for the number of attractors in…
We study bifurcations of a symmetric equilibrium state in systems of differential equations invariant with respect to a $\mathbb{Z}_4$-symmetry. We prove that if the equilibrium state has a triple zero eigenvalue, then pseudohyperbolic…
Bistability is a ubiquitous phenomenon in life sciences. In this paper, two kinds of bistable structures in dynamical systems are studied: One is two one-point attractors, another is a one-point attractor accompanied by a cycle attractor.…
The dynamics of a model, originally proposed for a type of instability in plastic flow, has been investigated in detail. The bifurcation portrait of the system in two physically relevant parameters exhibits a rich variety of dynamical…

Heteroclinic connections between two distinct hyperbolic periodic orbits in conservative systems are important in a wide range of applications. On the other hand, it is theoretically challenging to find large amplitude connections from…
