Bifurcations of nontwisted heteroclinic loop

Bifurcations of nontwisted and fine heteroclinic loops are studied for higher dimensional systems. The existence and its associated existing regions are given for the 1-hom orbit and the 1-per orbit, respectively, and bifurcation surfaces of the two-fold periodic orbit are also obtained. At last, these bifurcation results are applied to the fine heteroclinic loop for the planar system, which leads to some new and interesting results.
