Computing Method

As we know, Hopf bifurcation is an important part of bifurcation theory of dynamical systems. Almost all known works are concerned with the bifurcation and number of limit cycles near a nondegenerate focus or center. In the present paper, we study a general near-Hamiltonian system on the plane whose unperturbed system has a nilpotent center. We obtain an expansion for the first order Melnikov function near the center together with a computing method for the first coefficients. Using these coefficients, we obtain a new bifurcation theorem concerning the limit cycle bifurcation near the nilpotent center. An interesting application example & a cubic system having five limit cycles & is also presented.

In the study of the perturbation of Hamiltonian systems, the first order Melnikov functions play an important role. By finding its zeros, we can find limit cycles. By analyzing its analytical property, we can find its zeros. The main purpose of this article is to summarize some methods to find its zeros near a Hamiltonian value corresponding to an elementary center, nilpotent center or a homoclinic or heteroclinic loop with hyperbolic saddles or nilpotent critical points through the asymptotic expansions of the Melnikov function at these values. We present a series of results on the limit cycle bifurcation by using the first coefficients of the asymptotic expansions.

Perturbed Model

Limit cycle bifurcation problem of Kolmogorov model is interesting and significant both in theory and applications. In this paper, we will focus on investigating limit cycles for a class of quartic Kolmogorov model with three positive equilibrium points. Perturbed model can bifurcate three small limit cycles near (1, 2) or (2, 1) under a certain condition and can bifurcate one limit cycle near (1, 1). In addition, we have given some examples of simultaneous Hopf bifurcation and the structure of limit cycles bifurcated from three positive equilibrium points. The limit cycle bifurcation problem for Kolmogorov model with several positive equilibrium points are less seen in published references. Our result is good and interesting.

The Continuum

In this paper, we investigate the global dynamics of a memristor oscillator [Formula: see text] which comes from [Corinto et al., 2011], where [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text]. Clearly, the case [Formula: see text] is trivial. So far, all results of this oscillator were given only for the case [Formula: see text], where the set of equilibria may change among a singleton, three points and a singular continuum and at most one limit cycle can arise and no limit cycles arise from the continuum. Compared with the case [Formula: see text], this oscillator displays more complicated dynamics for the case when [Formula: see text]. More clearly, one limit cycle may arise from the continuum and at most three limit cycles appear in the case of three equilibria, where generalized pitchfork bifurcation, saddle-node bifurcation, generalized Hopf bifurcation, double limit cycle bifurcation and homoclinic bifurcation may occur. Finally all global phase portraits are given for [Formula: see text] cases on the Poincaré disc, where a generalized normal sector method is applied. Moreover, our partial analytical results are demonstrated by numerical examples.
