Multirhythmicity, a form of multistability, in an oscillator is an intriguing phenomenon found across many branches of science. From an application point of view, while the multirhythmicity is sometimes desirable as it presents us with many…
Varying one of the governing parameters of a dynamical system may lead to a critical transition, where the new stable state is undesirable. In some cases, there is only a limited range of the bifurcation parameter that corresponds to that…
