In this paper, based on some biological meanings and a model which was proposed by Lefever and Garay (1978), a nonlinear delay model describing the growth of tumor cells under immune surveillance against cancer is given. Then, boundedness of the solutions, local stability of the equilibria and Hopf bifurcation of the model are discussed in details. The existence of periodic solutions explains the restrictive interactions between immune surveillance and the growth of the tumor cells.

Abstract A Wavelet-Galerkin procedure is introduced in order to obtain periodic solutions of multidegrees-of-freedom dynamical systems with periodic time-varying coefficients. The procedure is then used to study the vibrations of parametrically excited mechanical systems. As problems of stability analysis of nonlinear systems are often reduced after linearization to problems involving linear differential systems with time-varying coefficients, we demonstrate the method provides efficient practical computations of Floquet exponents and consequently allows to give estimators for stability/instability levels. A few academic examples illustrate the relevance of the method.

Quasiperiodicity and chaos in a ring of unidirectionally coupled sigmoidal neurons (a ring neural oscillator) caused by a single shortcut is examined. A codimension-two Hopf–Hopf bifurcation for two periodic solutions exists in a ring of six neurons without self-couplings and in a ring of four neurons with self-couplings in the presence of a shortcut at specific locations. The locus of the Neimark–Sacker bifurcation of the periodic solution emanates from the Hopf–Hopf bifurcation point and a stable quasiperiodic solution is generated. Arnold’s tongues emanate from the locus of the Neimark–Sacker bifurcation, and multiple chaotic oscillations are generated through period-doubling cascades of periodic solutions in the Arnold’s tongues. Further, such chaotic irregular oscillations due to a single shortcut are also observed in propagating oscillations in a ring of Bonhoeffer–van der Pol (BVP) neurons coupled unidirectionally by slow synapses.
