A dynamic IS-LM business cycle model with two time delays in capital accumulation equation

In this paper, we analyze a augmented IS-LM business cycle model with the capital accumulation equation that two time delays are considered in investment processes according to Kalecki’s idea. Applying stability switch criteria and Hopf bifurcation theory, we prove that time delays cause the equilibrium to lose or gain stability and Hopf bifurcation occurs.     

Dynamics of a Delayed Predator-prey System with Stage Structure for Predator and Prey

In this paper, a predator-prey system with two discrete delays and stage structure for both the predator and the prey is investigated. The dynamical behaviors such as local stability and local Hopf bifurcation are analyzed by regarding the possible combinations of the two delays as bifurcating parameter. Some explicit formulae determining the direction of the Hopf bifurcation and the stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions are derived by using the normal form method and the center manifold theory. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to support the theoretical analysis.

With the help of normal form method and center manifold theorem, some explicit formulas determining the direction of Hopf bifurcation and the stability of bifurcating period solutions are derived. Finally, numerical simulations are given to illustrate the theoretical results.     

Stability and persistence in plankton models with distributed delays

In this paper a model with two independent distributed delays is proposed to describe a population of microorganism feeding on a limiting nutrient which is supplied at a constant rate and is recycled after the death of the species by decomposer action. We obtain sufficient conditions for local and global stability of the positive equilibrium of the model. A fairly general function for nutrient uptake is considered. Stability changes of the positive equilibrium as the nutrient supply increases are studied by the Hopf bifurcation theorem.     

Bifurcation of a Modified Leslie-Gower System with Discrete and Distributed Del

A modified Leslie-Gower predator-prey system with discrete and distributed delays is introduced. By analyzing the associated characteristic equation, stability and local Hopf bifurcation of the model are studied. It is found that the positive equilibrium is asymptotically stable when $\tau$ is less than a critical value and unstable when $\tau$ is greater than this critical value and the system can also undergo Hopf bifurcation at the positive equilibrium when $\tau$ crosses this critical value. Furthermore, using the normal form theory and center manifold theorem, the formulae for determining the direction of periodic solutions bifurcating from positive equilibrium are derived. Some numerical simulations are also carried out to illustrate our results.     

Stability and Hopf bifurcation of a delayed viral infection model with logistic growth and saturated immune impairment

In this paper, the stability and Hopf bifurcation of a delayed viral infection model with logistic growth and saturated immune impairment is studied. It is shown that there exist 3 equilibria. The sufficient conditions for local asymptotic stability of the infection‐free equilibrium and no‐immune equilibrium are given. We also discussed the local stability of positive equilibrium and the existence of Hopf bifurcation. Moreover, the direction and stability of Hopf bifurcation is obtained by using standard form theory and the center manifold theorem. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to verify the theoretical conclusions.     

Hopf bifurcation analysis in a synaptically coupled FHN neuron model with delays

This paper presents an investigation of stability and Hopf bifurcation of the synaptically coupled nonidentical FHN model with two time delays. We first consider the existence of local Hopf bifurcations, by regarding the sum of the two delays as a parameter, then derive explicit formulas for determining the direction of the Hopf bifurcations and the stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions, using the normal form method and center manifold theory. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out for supporting the theoretical analysis.     

Stability and global Hopf bifurcation in a delayed food web consisting of a prey and two predators

This paper is concerned with a predator–prey system with Holling II functional response and hunting delay and gestation. By regarding the sum of delays as the bifurcation parameter, the local stability of the positive equilibrium and the existence of Hopf bifurcation are investigated. We obtained explicit formulas to determine the properties of Hopf bifurcation by using the normal form method and center manifold theorem. Special attention is paid to the global continuation of local Hopf bifurcation. Using a global Hopf bifurcation result of Wu [Wu JH. Symmetric functional differential equations and neural networks with memory, Trans Amer Math Soc 1998;350:4799–4838] for functional differential equations, we may show the global existence of the periodic solutions. Finally, several numerical simulations illustrating the theoretical analysis are also given.     

Stability and bifurcation analysis for a neural network model with discrete and distributed delays

In this paper, a two‐neuron network with both discrete and distributed delays is considered. With the corresponding characteristic equation analyzed, the local stability of the trivial equilibrium is investigated. With the discrete time delay taken as a bifurcation parameter, the existence of Hopf bifurcation is established. Moreover, formulae for determining the direction of Hopf bifurcation and the stability of bifurcating periodic solutions are derived. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the main results and further to exhibit that there is a characteristic sequence of bifurcations leading to a chaotic dynamics, which implies that the system admits rich and complex dynamics.

Quasiperiodic motion induced by heterogeneous delays in a simplified internet congestion control model

In this paper, a simplified congestion control model is considered to study the quasiperiodic motion induced by heterogenous time delays. Analysis for the stability of the equilibrium shows that the Hopf bifurcation curves with diverse frequencies may intersect at the so-called non-resonant double Hopf bifurcation point. Choosing the delays as the bifurcation parameters and employing the method of multiple scales, the amplitude–frequency equations or normal form equations are obtained theoretically. Based on these equations, the dynamics near the bifurcation point is classified. The values of the delays for which the quasiperiodic motion exists can be predicted with an acceptable accuracy. This result provides a reference in designing and optimizing the network systems.

Stability and bifurcation of a two-neuron network with distributed time delays

In this paper we study the stability and bifurcation of the trivial solution of a two-neuron network model with distributed time delays. This model consists of two identical neurons, each possessing nonlinear instantaneous self-feedback and connected to the other neuron with continuously distributed time delays. We first examine the local asymptotic stability of the trivial solution by studying the roots of the corresponding characteristic equation, and then describe the stability and instability regions in the parameter space consisting of the self-feedback strength and the product of the connection strengths between the neurons. It is further shown that the trivial solution may lose its stability via a certain type of bifurcation such as a Hopf bifurcation or a pitchfork bifurcation. In addition, the criticality of Hopf bifurcation is investigated by means of the normal form theory. We also provide numerical evidence to support our theoretical analyses.

Delay-induced oscillatory dynamics in humoral mediated immune response with two time delays

A mathematical model for the quantitative analysis of cancer immune interaction, considering the role of humoral (antibody) mediated immune response with two time delays, namely maturation and interaction delays has been proposed in this paper. The aim of this work is to assess the effect of time delays on the interaction between cancerous cells and the antibodies. After categorizing the parametric plane into different regions based on the existence of equilibria, we investigate both analytically and through simulations, the stability of equilibria and the onset of sustained oscillations through Hopf bifurcations. The direction and stability of the Hopf bifurcation which occurs at the positive interior equilibrium point of the system have also been studied. It is observed that both the delays play an important role in stability switching. Appropriate therapy with a proper choice of system parameters are suggested to obtain cancer free equilibrium.

Dynamics of a modified Leslie-Gower model with gestation effect and nonlinear harvesting

This study focuses on the dynamics of a modified Leslie-Gower predator-prey model where the intake rate of prey is by per capita predator according to Crowley-Martin functional response and prey is harvested through nonlinear harvesting strategy. Further the time-delay $(\tau)$ is imposed to utilize gestation period of predations. We investigate the permanence analysis of proposed system. The local stability of non-delayed model at all possible equilibrium points is studied. It is shown that the given model undergoes Hopf bifurcation around positive equilibrium point with respect to delay parameter $\tau$. Subsequently the stability of Hopf bifurcation and its direction are explored through normal and center manifold theories. The derived theoretical results are justified with the help of numerical simulations.
