Invariant circles in the Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation for diffeomorphisms
1996
AbstractWe study a generic, real analytic unfolding of a planar diffeomorphism having a fixed point with unipotent linear part. In the analogue for vector fields an open parameter domain is known to exist, with a unique limit cycle. This domain is bounded by curves corresponding to a Hopf bifurcation and to a homoclinic connection. In the present case of analytic diffeomorphisms, a similar domain is shown to exist, with a normally hyperbolic invariant circle. It follows that all the ‘interesting’ dynamics, concerning the destruction of the invariant circle and the transition to trivial dynamics by the creation and death of homoclinic points, takes place in an exponentially small part of the…
Lusternik-Schnirelmann Critical Values and Bifurcation Problems
1987
We present a method to calculate bifurcation branches for nonlinear two point boundary value problems of the following type $$ \{ _{u(a) = u(b) = 0,}^{ - u'' = \lambda G'(u)} $$ (1.1) where G : R → R is a smooth mapping. This problem can be formulated equivalently as $$ g' \left(u \right)= \mu u, $$ (1.2) where $$ g \left(u \right)= \overset{b} {\underset{a} {\int}} G \left(u \left(t \right) \right) dt $$ (1.3) and μ = 1/λ. Solutions of this problem can be found by locating the critical points of the functional g : H → R on the spheres \(S_r= \lbrace x \in H \mid \;\parallel x \parallel =r \rbrace, r >0.\) (The Lagrange multiplier theorem.)
Desingularization Theory and Bifurcation of Non-elementary Limit Periodic Sets
1998
In the study of the Bogdanov-Takens unfolding, we introduced in 4.3.5.2 the following formulas of rescaling in the phase-space and in the parameter space: $$ x = {r^2}\bar x,y = {r^3}\bar y,\mu = - {r^4},\nu = {r^2}\bar \nu . $$
