Index theory revealed its outstanding role in the study of periodic orbits of Hamiltonian systems and the dynamical consequences of this theory are enormous. Although the index theory in the periodic case is well-established, very few…

In this paper, we will define the index pair $(i_A(B),\nu_A(B))$ by the dual variational method, and show the relationship between the indices defined by different methods. As applications, we apply the index $(i_A(B),\nu_A(B))$ to study…

In this paper, we define an analytical index for a continuous family of Fredholm operators parameterized by a topological space $\mathbb{X}$ into a Hilbert space $H,$ as a sequence of integers, extending naturally the usual definition of…

We prove an index theorem for families of linear periodic Hamiltonian systems, which is reminiscent of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem for selfadjoint elliptic operators. For the special case of one-parameter families, we compare our…

The index of a selfadjoint Fredholm operator is zero by the well-known fact that the kernel of a selfadjoint operator is perpendicular to its range. The Fredholm index was generalised to families by Atiyah and J\"anich in the sixties, and…

We study bifurcations of homoclinic orbits to hyperbolic saddle equilibria in a class of four-dimensional systems which may be Hamiltonian or not. Only one parameter is enough to treat these types of bifurcations in Hamiltonian systems but…

We develop a $K$-theoretic approach to multiparameter bifurcation theory of homoclinic solutions of discrete non-autonomous dynamical systems from a branch of stationary solutions. As a byproduct we obtain a family index theorem for…

In this paper, by the Masolv index theory, we will study the existence and multiplicity of homoclinic orbits for a class of asymptotically linear nonperiodic Hamiltonian systems with some twisted conditions on the Hamiltonian functions

Following Part~I, we consider a class of reversible systems and study bifurcations of homoclinic orbits to hyperbolic saddle equilibria. Here we concentrate on the case in which homoclinic orbits are symmetric, so that only one control…

We consider a class of two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian systems with saddle-centers connected by heteroclinic orbits and discuss some relationships between the existence of transverse heteroclinic orbits and nonintegrability. By the…

In a previous work, we proved an index theorem for families of asymptotically hyperbolic discrete dynamical systems and obtained applications to bifurcation theory. A weaker and far more common assumption than asymptotic hyperbolicity is…

This dissertation describes the space of heteroclinic orbits for a class of semilinear parabolic equations, focusing primarily on the case where the nonlinearity is a second degree polynomial with variable coefficients. Along the way, a new…

We analyze the generating mechanisms for heteroclinic cycles in $\mathbb{Z}_2\times\mathbb{Z}_2\times\mathbb{Z}_2$--equivariant ODEs, not involving Hopf bifurcations. Such cycles have been observed in particle physics systems with the…

We introduce the concept of 2-cyclicity for families of one-dimensional maps with a non-hyperbolic fixed point by analogy to the cyclicity for families of planar vector fields with a weak focus. This new concept is useful in order to study…

We report on transcritical bifurcations of periodic orbits in non-integrable two-dimensional Hamiltonian systems. We discuss their existence criteria and some of their properties using a recent mathematical description of transcritical…

The analysis performed as well as extensive numerical simulations have revealed the possibility of the generation of homoclinic orbits as a result of homoclinic bifurcation in a porous pellet. A method has been proposed for the development…

Motivated by bifurcation of branches of homoclinic orbits of dynamical systems, we consider families of first-order equations on the real line and introduce a generalisation of previous index theorems by Pejsachowicz, and by Hu and…

We develop a complete obstruction theory for the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-index of a compact connected 4-dimensional manifold with free involution. This $\mathbb{Z}_2$-index, equal to the minimum integer $n$ for which there exists an equivariant map…

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…

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…
