Bifurcations and Chaos in a Discrete Predator-prey System with Holling Type-IV Functional Response

A discrete predator-prey system with Holling type-IV functional response obtained by the Euler method is first investigated. The conditions of existence for fold bifurcation, flip bifurcation and Hopf bifurcation are derived by using the center manifold theorem and bifurcation theory. Furthermore, we give the condition for the occurrence of codimension-two bifurcation called the Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation for fixed points and present approximate expressions for saddle-node, Hopfand homoclinic bifurcation sets near the Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation point. We also show the existence of degenerated fixed point with codimension three at least. The numerical simulations, including bifurcation diagrams, phase portraits, and computation of maximum Lyapunov exponents, not only show the consistence with the theoretical analysis but also exhibit the rich and complex dynamical behaviors such as the attracting invariant circle, period-doubling bifurcation from period-2,3,4 orbits.interior crisis, intermittency mechanic, and sudden disappearance of chaotic dynamic.

In this paper, the dynamics of a spruce-budworm model with delay is investigated. We show that there exists Hopf bifurcation at the positive equilibrium as the delay increases. Some sufficient conditions for the existence of Hopf bifurcation are obtained by investigating the associated characteristic equation. By using the theory of normal form and center manifold, explicit expression for determining the direction of Hopf bifurcations and the stability of bifurcating periodic solutions are presented.     

Hopf bifurcation analysis of a general non-linear differential equation with delay

This work represents Hopf bifurcation analysis of a general non-linear differential equation involving time delay. A special form of this equation is the Hutchinson–Wright equation which is a mile stone in the mathematical modeling of population dynamics and mathematical biology. Taking the delay parameter as a bifurcation parameter, Hopf bifurcation analysis is studied by following the theory in the book by Hazzard et al. By analyzing the associated characteristic polynomial, we determine necessary conditions for the linear stability and Hopf bifurcation. In addition to this analysis, the direction of bifurcation, the stability and the period of a periodic solution to this equation are evaluated at a bifurcation value by using the Poincaré normal form and the center manifold theorem. Finally, the theoretical results are supported by numerical simulations.     

Bogdanov-Takens singularity in the comprehensive national power model with time delays

In this paper, the comprehensive national power model with time delays is studied. The condition that there is only one trivial equilibrium in the model is given. Based on the analysis of the distribution of the eigenvalues at the trivial equilibrium, it is found that the trivial equilibrium is a Bogdanov-Takens singularity. Using the center manifold theory and the normal form method, the normal form with delay and ratio parameters of the model is obtained. Furthermore, the topological structures of the model near the bifurcation point with the variation of these two parameters are given. The associated development situations of the comprehensive national power for some topological structures are discussed. Finally, some numerical simulations are performed to support the analytic results.     

Homoclinic orbits and Hopf bifurcations in delay differential systems with T-B singularity

The paper carries the results on Takens-Bogdanov bifurcation obtained in [T. Faria, L.T. Magalhães, Normal forms for retarded functional differential equations and applications to Bogdanov-Takens singularity, J. Differential Equations 122 (1995) 201-224] for scalar delay differential equations over to the case of delay differential systems with parameters. Firstly, we give feasible algorithms for the determination of Takens-Bogdanov singularity and the generalized eigenspace associated with zero eigenvalue in Rn. Next, through center manifold reduction and normal form calculation, a concrete reduced form for the parameterized delay differential systems is obtained. Finally, we describe the bifurcation behavior of the parameterized delay differential systems with T-B singularity in detail and present an example to illustrate the results.

In this paper, a four-neuron BAM neural network with distributed delays is considered, where kernels are chosen as weak kernels. Its dynamics is studied in terms of local stability analysis and Hopf bifurcation analysis. By choosing the average delay as a bifurcation parameter and analyzing the associated characteristic equation, Hopf bifurcation occurs when the bifurcation parameter passes through some exceptive values. The stability of bifurcating periodic solutions and a formula for determining the direction of Hopf bifurcation are determined by applying the normal form theory and the center manifold theorem. Finally, numerical simulation results are given to validate the theorem obtained.     

Periodic orbits and chaos in fast-slow systems with Bogdanov-Takens type fold points

The existence of stable periodic orbits and chaotic invariant sets of singularly perturbed problems of fast-slow type having Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation points in its fast subsystem is proved by means of the geometric singular perturbation method and the blow-up method. In particular, the blow-up method is effectively used for analyzing the flow near the Bogdanov-Takens type fold point in order to show that a slow manifold near the fold point is extended along the Boutroux's tritronquée solution of the first Painlevé equation in the blow-up space.     

Delay-induced Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation in a Leslie–Gower predator–prey model with nonmonotonic functional response

This work is concerned with the dynamics of a Leslie–Gower predator–prey model with nonmonotonic functional response near the Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation point. By analyzing the characteristic equation associated with the nonhyperbolic equilibrium, the critical value of the delay inducing the Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation is obtained. In this case, the dynamics near this nonhyperbolic equilibrium can be reduced to the study of the dynamics of the corresponding normal form restricted to the associated two-dimensional center manifold. The bifurcation diagram near the Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation point is drawn according to the obtained normal form. We show that the change of delay can result in heteroclinic orbit, homoclinic orbit and unstable limit cycle.     

Bautin bifurcation analysis for synchronous solution of a coupled FHN neural system with delay

In this paper, the Bautin bifurcation of synchronous solution of a coupled FHN neural system with delay is investigated. Firstly, the method of Lyapunov functional is used to obtain the synchronization conditions of the neural system, and then distributions of the roots of the characteristic equation associated with the linearization of the synchrosystem are discussed. Center manifold and normal form are employed to calculate its Lyapunov coefficients. A group of sufficient conditions are given to present Bautin bifurcation of the synchrosystem by applying the Bautin bifurcation theorem of delay differential equations developed by Anca-Veronica Ion. The Bautin bifurcation diagram in the physical parameter space is provided to illustrate the correctness of our theoretical analysis.
