AbstractSystems composed of reactive particles diffusing in a network display emergent dynamics. While Fick’s diffusion can lead to Turing patterns, other diffusion schemes might display more complex phenomena. Here we study the death and restoration of collective oscillations in networks of oscillators coupled by random-walk diffusion, which modifies both the original unstable fixed point and the stable limit-cycle, making them topology-dependent. By means of numerical simulations we show that, in some cases, the diffusion-induced heterogeneity stabilizes the initially unstable fixed point via a Hopf bifurcation. Further increasing the coupling strength can moreover restore the oscillations. A numerical stability analysis indicates that this phenomenology corresponds to a case of amplitude death, where the inhomogeneous stabilized solution arises from the interplay of random walk diffusion and heterogeneous topology. Our results are relevant in the fields of epidemic spreading or ecological dispersion, where random walk diffusion is more prevalent.

AbstractThe dynamics of the orientations of prolate ellipsoids in general linear shear flow is considered. The motivation behind this work is to gain a better understanding of the motion and the orientation probability distribution of ice particles in clouds in order to improve the modelling of their collision. The evolution of the orientations is governed by the Jeffery equation. It is shown that the possible attractors of this equation are fixed points, limit cycles and an infinite set of periodic solutions, named Jeffery orbits, in the case of simple shear. Linear stability analysis shows that the existence and the stability of the attractors are determined by the eigenvalues of the linear part of the equation. If the eigenvalues possess a non-vanishing real part, then there always exists either a stable fixed point or a stable limit cycle. Pure imaginary eigenvalues lead to Jeffery orbits. The convergence to a stable fixed point or to a stable limit cycle may either be monotonic or may be retarded due to the occurrence of non-normal growth. If non-normal growth occurs the convergence rate may be much slower compared with the characteristic time scale of the shear. Expressions for the characteristic time scale of convergence to the stable solutions are derived. In the case of non-normal growth, expressions are derived for the delay in the convergence. The orientation probability distribution function (p.d.f.) is computed via the solution of the Fokker–Planck equation. The p.d.f. is either periodic, in the case of simple shear (pure imaginary eigenvalues), or it converges to singular points or strips in the orientation space (fixed points and limit cycles) on which it grows to infinity. Time-independent p.d.f.s exist only for imaginary eigenvalues. Unlike the case where Brownian diffusion is present, the steady solutions are not unique and depend on the initial conditions.

Transition from excitability to asymptotic periodicity in an excitable system, modeled by the FitzHugh–Nagumo equations, with multiple time-delays, is analyzed. It is demonstrated that, for intermediate time-lags, the system has two coexisting attractors, a hyperbolic stable fixed point and a stable limit cycle. The fixed point is destabilized via subcritical Hopf bifurcation for much larger values of the time-lags.

In this paper we have studied the dynamical behaviours of a delayed two-species competitive system affected by toxicant with imprecise biological parameters. We have proposed a method to handle these imprecise parameters by using parametric form of interval numbers. We have discussed the existence of various equilibrium points and stability of the system at these equilibrium points. In case of toxic stimulatory system, the delay model exhibits a stable limit cycle oscillation. Computer simulations are carried out to illustrate our analytical findings.

A one-dimensional Gaussian map defined by a Gaussian function describes a discrete-time dynamical system. Chaotic behavior can be observed in both Gaussian and logistic maps. This study analyzes the bifurcation structure corresponding to the fixed and periodic points of a coupled system comprising two Gaussian maps. The bifurcation structure of a mutually coupled Gaussian map is more complex than that of a mutually coupled logistic map. In a coupled Gaussian map, it was confirmed that after a stable fixed point or stable periodic points became unstable through the bifurcation, the points were able to recover their stability while the system parameters were changing. Moreover, we investigated a parameter region in which symmetric and asymmetric stable fixed points coexisted. Asymmetric unstable fixed point was generated by the [Formula: see text]-type branching of a symmetric stable fixed point. The stability of the unstable fixed point could be recovered through period-doubling and tangent bifurcations. Furthermore, a homoclinic structure related to the occurrence of chaotic behavior and invariant closed curves caused by two-periodic points was observed. The mutually coupled Gaussian map was merely a two-dimensional dynamical system; however, chaotic itinerancy, known to be a characteristic property associated with high-dimensional dynamical systems, was observed. The bifurcation structure of the mutually coupled Gaussian map clearly elucidates the mechanism of chaotic itinerancy generation in the two-dimensional coupled map. We discussed this mechanism by comparing the bifurcation structures of the Gaussian and logistic maps.

Abstract: In this paper we study the stability of one of a non linear autoregressive model with trigonometric term  by using local linearization method proposed by Tuhro Ozaki .We find the singular point ,the stability of the singular point and the limit cycle. We conclude  that the proposed model under certain conditions have a non-zero singular point which is  a asymptotically salable ( when  0 ) and have an  orbitaly stable limit cycle . Also we give some examples in order to explain the method. Key Words : Non-linear Autoregressive model; Limit cycle; singular point; Stability.

International audience We present the method of aggregation of variables in the case of ordinary differential equations. We apply the method to a prey - predator model in a multi - patchy environment. In this model, preys can go to a refuge and therefore escape to predation. The predator must return regularly to his terrier to feed his progeny. We study the effect of density-dependent migration on the global stability of the prey-predator system. We consider constant migration rates, but also density-dependent migration rates. We prove that the positif equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable in the first case, and that its stability changes in the second case. The fact that we consider density-dependent migration rates leads to the existence of a stable limit cycle via a Hopf bifurcation. Nous présentons les grandes lignes de laméthode d'agrégation des variables dans les systèmes d'équations différentielles ordinaires. Nous appliquons laméthode à un modèle proie-prédateur spatialisé. Dans ce modèle, les proies peuvent échapper à la prédation en se réfugiant sur un site. Le prédateur doit aussi retourner régulièrement dans son terrier pour nourrir sa progéniture. Nous étudions les effets de migration dépendant de la densité des populations sur la stabilité globale du système proie-prédateur. Nous considérons des taux de migration constants, puis densité-dépendants. Dans le cas de taux constants il existe un équilibre positif toujours stable alors que dans le cas de taux de migration densité-dépendants, il existe un cycle limite stable via une bifurcation de Hopf.

It was shown in [Li & Xiao, 2007] that in a predator–prey model of Leslie type with simplified Holling type IV functional response some complex bifurcations can occur simultaneously for some values of parameters, such as codimension 1 subcritical Hopf bifurcation and codimension 2 Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation. In this paper, we show that for the same model there exists a unique degenerate positive equilibrium which is a degenerate Bogdanov–Takens singularity (focus case) of codimension 3 for other values of parameters. We prove that the model exhibits degenerate focus type Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation of codimension 3 around the unique degenerate positive equilibrium. Numerical simulations, including the coexistence of three hyperbolic positive equilibria, two limit cycles, bistability states (one stable equilibrium and one stable limit cycle, or two stable equilibria), tristability states (two stable equilibria and one stable limit cycle), a stable limit cycle enclosing a homoclinic loop, a homoclinic loop enclosing an unstable limit cycle, or a stable limit cycle enclosing three unstable hyperbolic positive equilibria for various parameter values, confirm the theoretical results.


In this series of papers we re-examine, using recently developed techniques, some chemical kinetic models that have appeared in the literature with a view to obtaining a complete description of all the qualitatively distinct behaviour that the system can exhibit. Each of the schemes is describable by two coupled ordinary differential equations and contain at most three independent parameters. We find that even with these relatively simple chemical schemes there are regions of parameter space in which the systems display behaviour not previously found. Quite often these regions are small and it seems unlikely that they would be found via classical methods. In part I of the series we consider one of the thermally coupled kinetic oscillator models studied by Sal’nikov. He showed that there is a region in parameter space in which the system would be in a state of undamped oscillations because the relevant phase portrait consists of an unstable steady state surrounded by a stable limit cycle. Our analysis has revealed two further regions in which the phase portraits contain, respectively, two limit cycles of opposite stability enclosing a stable steady state and three limit cycles of alternating stability surrounding an unstable steady state. This latter region is extremely small, so much so that it could be reasonably neglected in any predictions made from the model.

Abstract This paper describes a self-excited vibration model of dragonfly’s wing based on the concept of bionic design, which is expected as a technological hint to solve the scale effect problems in developing the small- or micro-sized actuators. From a morphological consideration of flight muscle of dragonfly, the nonlinear equation of motion for the wing considering the air drag force due to flapping of wing is formulated. In the model, the dry friction-type and Van der Pol-type driving forces are employed to power the flight muscles and to generate the stable self-excited wing vibration. Two typical Japanese dragonflies, “Anotogaster sieboldii Selys” and “Sympetrum frequens Selys”, are selected as examples, and the self-excited vibration analyses for these dragonfly’s wings are demonstrated. The linearized solutions for the nonlinear equation of motion are compared with the nonlinear solutions, and the vibration system parameters to generate the stable limit cycle of self-excited wing vibration are determined.
