In this paper, we propose an equivariant degree based method to study bifurcation of periodic solutions (of constant period) in symmetric networks of reversible FDEs. Such a bifurcation occurs when eigenvalues of linearization move along…
We propose a general framework for computer-assisted verification of the presence of symmetry breaking, period-tupling and touch-and-go bifurcations of symmetric periodic orbits for reversible maps. The framework is then adopted to…
Dynamics near the grazing manifold and basins of attraction for a motion of a material point in a gravitational field, colliding with a moving motion-limiting stop, are investigated. The Poincare map, describing evolution from an impact to…

We study bifurcations of area-preserving maps, both orientable (symplectic) and non-orientable, with quadratic homoclinic tangencies. We consider one and two parameter general unfoldings and establish results related to the appearance of…
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 paper, we study the possible bifurcations of periodic orbits by reducing them to graphs. The aforementioned allows to study the genericity of routes to chaos, as well as to analyze their possible complexity. In particular, our…
In Part I of this paper we discussed new methods for the numerical continuation of point-to-cycle connecting orbits in 3-dimensional autonomous ODE's using projection boundary conditions. In this second part we extend the method to the…
We extend our previous algorithm computing the minimum orbital intersection distance (MOID) to include hyperbolic orbits, and mixed combinations ellipse--hyperbola. The MOID is computed by finding all stationary points of the distance…
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…
In this contribution, the optimal stabilization problem of periodic orbits is studied via invariant manifold theory and symplectic geometry. The stable manifold theory for the optimal point stabilization case is generalized to the case of…
Hidden attractors are present in many nonlinear dynamical systems and are not associated with equilibria, making them difficult to locate. Recent studies have demonstrated methods of locating hidden attractors, but the route to these…
In this work we first provide sufficient conditions to assure the persistence of some zeros of functions having the form $$g(z,\varepsilon)=g_0(z)+\sum_{i=1}^k \varepsilon^i g_i(z)+\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon^{k+1}),$$ for $|\varepsilon|\neq0$…
