In this paper, a two-neuron network with different time delays is investigated. By analyzing the associated characteristic equation, we obtain the conditions for delay-dependent and delay-independent asymptotic stability, respectively. Furthermore, we find that if the delay is used as a bifurcation parameter, Hopf bifurcation would occur. The direction and stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions are determined by using the Nyquist criterion and the graphical Hopf bifurcation theorem. Some examples are included to illustrate our results.

In this paper, we present a discontinuous cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) response for HTLV-1. Moreover, a delay parameter for the activation of CTLs is considered. In fact, a system of differential equation with discontinuous right-hand side with delay is defined for HTLV-1. For analyzing the dynamical behavior of the system, graphical Hopf bifurcation is used. In general, Hopf bifurcation theory will help to obtain the periodic solutions of a system as parameter varies. Therefore, by applying the frequency domain approach and analyzing the associated characteristic equation, the existence of Hopf bifurcation by using delay immune response as a bifurcation parameter is determined. The stability of Hopf bifurcation periodic solutions is obtained by the Nyquist criterion and the graphical Hopf bifurcation theorem. At the end, numerical simulations demonstrated our results for the system of HTLV-1.

A general system of three autonomous ordinary differential equations with three discrete time delays is considered. With respect to the delays, we investigate the local stability of equilibria by analyzing the corresponding characteristic equation. Using the Hopf bifurcation theorem, we predict the occurrence of a limit cycle bifurcation for the time delay parameters. Thus, some new mathematical results are obtained. Finally, the above mentioned criteria are applied to a system modelling miRNA regulation.

A mathematical model for growth of tumors with two discrete delays is studied. The delays, respectively, represent the time taken for cells to undergo mitosis and the time taken for the cell to modify the rate of cell loss due to apoptosis and kill of cells by the inhibitor. We show the influence of time delays on the Hopf bifurcation when one of delays is used as a bifurcation parameter.

In this paper, a general two-neuron model with time delay is considered, where the time delay is regarded as a parameter. It is found that Hopf bifurcation occurs when this delay passes through a sequence of critical value. By analyzing the characteristic equation and using the frequency domain approach, the existence of Hopf bifurcation is determined. The stability of bifurcating periodic solutions are determined by the harmonic balance approach, Nyquist criterion and the graphic Hopf bifurcation theorem. Numerical results are given to justify the theoretical analysis.
