LIMIT CYCLES OF A QUADRATIC HAMILTONIAN SYSTEM BY CUBIC PERTURBATIONS

In this paper,we are concerned with a cubic near-Hamiltonian system,whose unperturbed system is quadratic and has a symmetric homoclinic loop.By using the method developed in [12],we find that the system can have 4 limit cycles with 3 of them being near the homoclinic loop.Further,we give a condition under which there exist 4 limit cycles.     

Transversal homoclinic orbits for higher dimensional difference equations

In this paper, we use the functional analytic method (theory of exponential dichotomies and Liapunov-Schmidt method) to study the homoclinic bifurcations of higher dimensional difference equations in a degenerate case. We obtain a Melnikov vector mapping for difference equations with the help of which the existence of transversal homoclinic orbits can be detected.

Lower bounds for the number of limit cycles of trigonometric Abel equations

We consider the Abel equation , where A(t) and B(t) are trigonometric polynomials of degree n and m, respectively, and we give lower bounds for its number of isolated periodic orbits for some values of n and m. These lower bounds are obtained by two different methods: the study of the perturbations of some Abel equations having a continuum of periodic orbits and the Hopf-type bifurcation of periodic orbits from the solution x=0.     

Melnikov function and limit cycle bifurcation from a nilpotent center

We investigate a general near-Hamiltonian system on the plane whose unperturbed system has a nilpotent center. Our main purpose is to give an algorithm for calculating the first coefficients of the expansion of the first order Melnikov function. We also give an application by using the method and obtain the number of limit cycles of a cubic system.     

Homoclinic Tangles, Phase Locking, and Chaos in a Two-Frequency Perturbation of Duffing's Equation

Summary. We study a two-frequency perturbation of Duffing's equation. When the perturbation is small, this system has a normally hyperbolic invariant torus which may be subjected to phase locking. Applying a version of Melnikov's method for multifrequency systems, we detect the occurrence of transverse intersection between the stable and unstable manifolds of the invariant torus. We show that if the invariant torus is not subjected to phase locking, then such a transverse intersection yields chaotic dynamics. When the invariant torus is subjected to phase locking, the situation is different. In this case, there exist two periodic orbits which are created in a saddle-node bifurcation. Using another version of Melnikov's method for slowly varying oscillators, we also give conditions under which the stable and unstable manifolds of the periodic orbits intersect transversely and hence chaotic dynamics may occur. Our results reveal that when the invariant torus is subjected to phase locking, chaotic dynamics resulting from transverse intersection between its stable and unstable manifolds may be interrupted.

New global bifurcation diagrams for piecewise smooth systems: Transversality of homoclinic points does not imply chaos

In this paper we consider some piecewise smooth 2-dimensional systems having a possibly non-smooth homoclinic $\overrightarrow{\gamma }(t)$. We assume that the critical point $\overrightarrow{0}$ lies on the discontinuity surface ${\mathrm{\Omega }}^0$. We consider 4 scenarios which differ for the presence or not of sliding close to $\overrightarrow{0}$ and for the possible presence of a transversal crossing between $\overrightarrow{\gamma }(t)$ and ${\mathrm{\Omega }}^0$. We assume that the systems are subject to a small non-autonomous perturbation, and we obtain 4 new bifurcation diagrams. In particular we show that, in one of these scenarios, the existence of a transversal homoclinic point guarantees the persistence of the homoclinic trajectory but chaos cannot occur. Further we illustrate the presence of new phenomena involving an uncountable number of sliding homoclinics.     

Homoclinic orbits and chaos in discretized perturbed NLS systems: Part I. Homoclinic orbits

Summary The existence of homocliic orbits, for a finite-difference discretized form of a damped and driven perturbation of the focusing nonlinear Schroedinger equation under even periodic boundary conditions, is established. More specifically, for external parameters on a codimension 1 submanifold, the existence of homoclinic orbits is established through an argument which combines Melnikov analysis with a geometric singular perturbation theory and a purely geometric argument (called the “second measurement” in the paper). The geometric singular perturbation theory deals with persistence of invariant manifolds and fibration of the persistent invariant manifolds. The approximate location of the codimension 1 submanifold of parameters is calculated. (This is the material in Part I.) Then, in a neighborhood of these homoclinic orbits, the existence of “Smale horseshoes” and the corresponding symbolic dynamics are established in Part II [21].     

Limit cycle bifurcations in the in-plane galloping of iced transmission line

In this paper, we establish a mathematical model to describe in-plane galloping of iced transmission line with geometrical and aerodynamical nonlinearities using Hamilton principle. After Galerkin Discretization, we get a two-dimensional ordinary differential equations system, further, a near Hamiltonian system is obtained by rescaling. By calculating the coefficients of the first order Melnikov function or the Abelian integral of the near-Hamiltonian system, the number of limit cycles and their locations are obtained. We demonstrate that this model can have at least 3 limit cycles in some wind velocity. Moreover, some numerical simulations are conducted to verify the theoretical results.
