A variational method is presented for directly finding the bifurcation point of nonlinear equations as the saddle-node point of the extended nonlinear Rayleigh quotient. The method is applied for solving an open problem on the existence of…
We develop a novel method for finding bifurcations for nonlinear systems of equations based on directly finding bifurcations through saddle points of extended quotients. The method is applied to find the saddle-node bifurcation point for…
We develop a variational minimax method for detecting maximal saddle-node bifurcations in abstract nonlinear equations. Unlike continuation and path-following techniques, the method identifies the critical parameter directly as an extremal…
We introduce the nonlinear generalized Collatz-Wielandt formula $$ \lambda^*= \sup_{x\in Q}\min_{i:h_i(x) \neq 0} \frac{g_i(x)}{ h_i(x)}, ~~Q \subset \mathbb{R}^n,$$ and prove that its solution $(x^*,\lambda^*)$ yields the maximal…
In this paper, we investigate semilinear elliptic equations with general exponential-type nonlinearities in two dimensions. For such nonlinearities, we establish two main results. The first is the construction of a singular solution.…
A saddle-node bifurcation cascade is studied in the logistic equation, whose bifurcation points follow an expression formally identical to the one given by Feigenbaum for period doubling cascade. The Feigenbaum equation is generalized…
We report on some recent existence and uniqueness results for elliptic equations subject to Dirichlet boundary condition and involving a singular nonlinearity. We take into account the following types of problems: (i) singular problems with…
This paper studies the saddle point problem of polynomials. We give an algorithm for computing saddle points. It is based on solving Lasserre's hierarchy of semidefinite relaxations. Under some genericity assumptions on defining…
Saddle-node bifurcations arise frequently in solitary waves of diverse physical systems. Previously it was believed that solitary waves always undergo stability switching at saddle-node bifurcations, just as in finite-dimensional dynamical…
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…
We study main bifurcations of multidimensional diffeomorphisms having a non-transversal homoclinic orbit to a saddle-node fixed point. On a parameter plane we build a bifurcation diagram for single-round periodic orbits lying entirely in a…
With the dual variational principle and the saddle point reduction we use the abstract bifurcation theory recently developed by author in previous work to prove many new bifurcation results for solutions of four types of Hamiltonian…
We establish several results related to existence, nonexistence or bifurcation of positive solutions for a Dirichlet boundary value problem with in a smooth bounded domain. The main feature of this paper consists in the presence of a…
We show bifurcation of localized spike solutions from spatially constant states in systems of nonlocally coupled equations in the whole space. The main assumptions are a generic bifurcation of saddle-node or transcritical type for spatially…
Saddle point problems arise in a variety of applications, e.g., when solving the Stokes equations. They can be formulated such that the system matrix is symmetric, but indefinite, so the variational convergence theory that is usually used…
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…
Recently, saddle point problems have received much attention due to their powerful modeling capability for a lot of problems from diverse domains. Applications of these problems occur in many applied areas, such as robust optimization,…
Turbulent puffs in a pipe persist for a long time before abruptly transitioning to laminar flow through viscous exponential decay. Direct numerical simulation results reveal a saddle-node bifurcation sequence governing the final…
In this paper are provided some sufficient conditions for a non autonomous scalar differential equation to have saddle node, transcritical and pitchfork bifurcations using higher order derivatives.
We consider the scalar delay differential equation $$ \dot{x}(t)=-x(t)+f_{K}(x(t-1)) $$ with a nondecreasing feedback function $f_{K}$ depending on a parameter $K$, and we verify that a saddle-node bifurcation of periodic orbits takes place…
