Many dynamical systems of different complexity, e.g. 1D logistic map, the Lorentz equations, or real phenomena, like turbulent convection, show chaotic behaviour. Despite huge differences, the dynamical scenarios for these systems are…

Noise-induced escape from a metastable state of a dynamical system is studied close to a saddle-node bifurcation point, but in the region where the system remains underdamped. The activation energy of escape scales as a power of the…

We show that a one-dimensional differential equation depending on a parameter $\mu$ with a saddle-node bifurcation at $\mu =0$ can be modelled by an extended normal form $\dot y = \nu (\mu )-y^2+a(\mu )y^3$, where the functions $\nu$ and…

A new four-dimensional model with quasi-periodic dynamics is suggested. The torus attractor originates via the saddle-node bifurcation, which may be regarded as a member of a bifurcation family embracing different types of blue sky…
