Motivated by a certain type of unfolding of a Hopf-Hopf singularity, we consider a one-parameter family $(f_\gamma)_{\gamma\geq0}$ of $C^3$--vector fields in $\mathbb{R}^4$ whose flows exhibit a heteroclinic cycle associated to two periodic…
In this paper we study unfoldings of saddle-nodes and their Dulac time. By unfolding a saddle-node, saddles and nodes appear. In the first result (Theorem A) we prove uniform regularity by which orbits and their derivatives arrive at a…
A common external forcing can cause a saddle-node bifurcation in an ensemble of identical Duffing oscillators by breaking the symmetry of the individual bistable (double-well) unit. The strength of the forcing determines the separation…
We consider diffeomorphisms $f$ with heteroclinic cycles associated to saddles $P$ and $Q$ of different indices. We say that a cycle of this type can be stabilized if there are diffeomorphisms close to $f$ with a robust cycle associated to…
In this article, we present a bifurcation and stability analysis on the double-diffusive convection. The main objective is to study 1) the mechanism of the saddle-node bifurcation and hysteresis for the problem, 2) the formation, stability…
When a real saddle equilibrium in a three-dimensional vector field undergoes a homoclinic bifurcation, the associated two-dimensional invariant manifold of the equilibrium closes on itself in an orientable or non-orientable way. We are…
A generic saddle-node bifurcation is proposed to modelize fast transitions of finite amplitude arising in geophysical (and perhaps other) contexts, when they result from the intrinsic dynamics of the system. The fast transition is…
In a smooth dynamical system, a homoclinic connection is a closed orbit returning to a saddle equilibrium. Under perturbation, homoclinics are associated with bifurcations of periodic orbits, and with chaos in higher dimensions. Homoclinic…
We study the effect of a time-delayed feedback within a generic model for a saddle-node bifurcation on a limit cycle. Without delay the only attractor below this global bifurcation is a stable node. Delay renders the phase space…
We consider structure of typical gradient flows bifurcations on closed surfaces with minimal number of singular points. There are two type of such bifurcations: saddle-node (SN) and saddle connections (SC). The structure of a bifurcation is…
The bistability of embedded elements provides a natural route through which to introduce reprogrammability to elastic meta-materials. One example of this is the soft morphable sheet, in which bistable elements that can be snapped up or…
We study homoclinic bifurcations in an interval map associated with a saddle-focus of (2, 1)-type in $\mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetric systems. Our study of this map reveals the homoclinic structure of the saddle-focus, with a bifurcation unfolding…
The presence of saddle-node bifurcation cascade in the logistic equation is associated with an intermittency cascade; in a similar way as a saddle-node bifurcation is associated with an intermittency. We merge the concepts of bifurcation…
Given a finite set of data generated by an unknown ordinary differential equation it is impossible to exactly determine the associated vector field, and hence, bifurcation theory tells us that it is impossible, in general, to correctly…
Bifurcations of dynamical systems, described by a second order differential equations and by an impact condition are studied. It is shown that the variation of parameters when the number of impacts of a periodic solution increases, leads to…
We present an unfolding of the codimension-two scenario of the simultaneous occurrence of a discontinuous bifurcation and an Andronov-Hopf bifurcation in a piecewise-smooth, continuous system of autonomous ordinary differential equations in…
In this paper we further explore the L-shadowing property defined in [17] for dynamical systems on compact spaces. We prove that structurally stable diffeomorphisms and some pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphisms of the two-dimensional sphere…
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…
We study perturbations of diffeomorphisms that have a saddle connection between a pair of normally hyperbolic invariant manifolds. We develop a first-order deformation calculus for invariant manifolds and show that a generalized Melnikov…
We focus on the existence and persistence of families of saddle periodic orbits in a four-dimensional Hamiltonian reversible ordinary differential equation derived using a travelling wave ansatz from a generalised nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger…
