This paper is concerned with bifurcation and stability in an autoimmune model, which was established to study an important phenomenon — blips arising from such models. This model has two equilibrium solutions, disease-free equilibrium and disease equilibrium. The positivity of the solutions of the model and the global stability of the disease-free equilibrium have been proved. In this paper, we particularly focus on Hopf bifurcation which occurs from the disease equilibrium. We present a detailed study on the use of center manifold theory and normal form theory, and derive the normal form associated with Hopf bifurcation, from which the approximate amplitude of the bifurcating limit cycles and their stability conditions are obtained. Particular attention is also paid to the bifurcation of multiple limit cycles arising from generalized Hopf bifurcation, which may yield bistable phenomenon involving equilibrium and oscillating motion. This result may explain some complex dynamical behavior in real biological systems. Numerical simulations are compared with the analytical predictions to show a very good agreement.

This paper mainly modifies and further develops the Reyleigh price model. By modifying the basic Reyleigh model, we can more accurately illustrate the economic phenomena with price varying. First, we research the dynamics of the modified Reyleigh model with time delay. By employing the normal form theory and center manifold theory, we obtain some testable results on these issues. The conclusion confirms that a Hopf bifurcation occurs due to the existence of stability switches when the delay varies. Finally, some numerical simulations are given to illustrate the effectiveness of our results.

AbstractIn this paper, we are concerned with a delayed smoking model in which the population is divided into five classes. Sufficient conditions guaranteeing the local stability and existence of Hopf bifurcation for the model are established by taking the time delay as a bifurcation parameter and employing the Routh–Hurwitz criteria. Furthermore, direction and stability of the Hopf bifurcation are investigated by applying the center manifold theorem and normal form theory. Finally, computer simulations are implemented to support the analytic results and to analyze the effects of some parameters on the dynamical behavior of the model.

A four-dimensional neural network model with delay is investigated. With the help of the theory of delay differential equation and Hopf bifurcation, the conditions of the equilibrium undergoing Hopf bifurcation are worked out by choosing the delay as parameter. Applying the normal form theory and the center manifold argument, we derive the explicit formulae for determining the properties of the bifurcating periodic solutions. Numerical simulations are performed to illustrate the analytical results.

This paper is concerned with the number of limit cycles bifurcating in three-dimensional quadratic vector fields with [Formula: see text] symmetry. The system under consideration has three fine focus points which are symmetric about the [Formula: see text]-axis. Center manifold theory and normal form theory are applied to prove the existence of 12 limit cycles with [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] distribution in the neighborhood of three singular points. This is a new lower bound on the number of limit cycles in three-dimensional quadratic systems.

Since the electromagnetic field of neural networks is heterogeneous, the diffusion phenomenon of electrons exists inevitably. In this paper, we investigate the existence of Turing–Hopf bifurcation in a reaction–diffusion neural network. By the normal form theory for partial differential equations, we calculate the normal form on the center manifold associated with codimension-two Turing–Hopf bifurcation, which helps us understand and classify the spatiotemporal dynamics close to the Turing–Hopf bifurcation point. Numerical simulations show that the spatiotemporal dynamics in the neighborhood of the bifurcation point can be divided into six cases and spatially inhomogeneous periodic solution appears in one of them.

Normal form theory is a powerful tool in the study of nonlinear systems, in particular, for complex dynamical behaviors such as stability and bifurcations. However, it has not been widely used in practice due to the lack of efficient computation methods, especially for high dimensional engineering problems. The main difficulty in applying normal form theory is to determine the critical conditions under which the dynamical system undergoes a bifurcation. In this paper a computationally efficient method is presented for determining the critical condition of Hopf bifurcation by calculating the Jacobian matrix and the Hurwitz condition. This method combines numerical and symbolic computation schemes, and can be applied to high dimensional systems. The Lorenz system and the extended Malkus-Robbins dynamo system are used to show the applicability of the method.

We extend the three-dimensional SIR model to four-dimensional case and then analyze its dynamical behavior including stability and bifurcation. It is shown that the new model makes a significant improvement to the epidemic model for computer viruses, which is more reasonable than the most existing SIR models. Furthermore, we investigate the stability of the possible equilibrium point and the existence of the Hopf bifurcation with respect to the delay. By analyzing the associated characteristic equation, it is found that Hopf bifurcation occurs when the delay passes through a sequence of critical values. An analytical condition for determining the direction, stability, and other properties of bifurcating periodic solutions is obtained by using the normal form theory and center manifold argument. The obtained results may provide a theoretical foundation to understand the spread of computer viruses and then to minimize virus risks.

We use the normal form theory, averaging method, and integral manifold theorem to study the existence of limit cycles in Lotka-Volterra systems and the existence of invariant tori in quadratic systems inℝ3.

In this paper, we consider a class of Liénard systems, described by [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text] symmetry. Particular attention is given to the existence of small-amplitude limit cycles around fine foci when [Formula: see text] is an odd polynomial function and [Formula: see text] is an even function. Using the methods of normal form theory, we found some new and better lower bounds of the maximal number of small-amplitude limit cycles in these systems. Moreover, a complete classification of the center conditions is obtained for such systems.

In recent publications [Llibre, 2014; Llibre & Makhlouf, 2020], time-averaging method was applied to studying periodic orbits bifurcating from zero-Hopf critical points of two Rössler systems. It was shown that the averaging method is successful for a certain type of zero-Hopf critical points, but fails for some type of such critical points. In this paper, we apply normal form theory to reinvestigate the bifurcation and show that the method of normal forms is applicable for all types of zero-Hopf bifurcations, revealing why the time-averaging method fails for some type of zero-Hopf bifurcation.
