In this paper, we make a bifurcation analysis of a mathematical model for an electric circuit formed by the four fundamental electronic elements: one memristor, one capacitor, one inductor and one resistor. The considered model is given by a discontinuous piecewise linear system of ordinary differential equations, defined on three zones in ℝ3, determined by |z| < 1 (called the central zone) and |z| > 1 (the external zones). We show that the z-axis is filled by equilibrium points of the system, and analyze the linear stability of the equilibria in each zone. Due to the existence of this line of equilibria, the phase space ℝ3 is foliated by invariant planes transversal to the z-axis and parallel to each other, in each zone. In this way, each solution is contained in a three-piece invariant set formed by part of a plane contained in the central zone, which is extended by two half planes in the external zones. We also show that the system may present nonlinear oscillations, given by the existence of infinitely many periodic orbits, each one belonging to one such invariant set and passing by two of the three zones or passing by the three zones. These orbits arise due to homoclinic and heteroclinic bifurcations, obtained varying one parameter in the studied model, and may also exist for some fixed sets of parameter values. This intricate phase space may bring some light to the understanding of these memristor properties. The analytical and numerical results obtained extend the analysis presented in [Itoh & Chua, 2009; Messias et al., 2010].

We study a van der Pol-like memristor oscillator, obtained by substituting a Chua’s diode with an active controlled memristor in a van der Pol oscillator with Chua’s diode. The mathematical model for the studied circuit is given by a three-dimensional piecewise linear system of ordinary differential equations, depending on five parameters. We show that this system has a line of equilibria given by the [Formula: see text]-axis and the phase space [Formula: see text] is foliated by invariant planes transverse to this line, which implies that the dynamics is essentially two-dimensional. We also show that in each of these invariant planes may occur limit cycles and relaxation oscillations (that is, nonsinusoidal repetitive (periodic) solutions), depending on the parameter values. Hence, the oscillator studied here, constructed with a memristor, is also a relaxation oscillator, as the original van der Pol oscillator, although with a main difference: in the case of the memristor oscillator, an infinity of oscillations are produced, one in each invariant plane, depending on the initial condition considered. We also give conditions for the nonexistence of oscillations, depending on the position of the invariant planes in the phase space.

The memristor is supposed to be the fourth fundamental electronic element in addition to the well-known resistor, inductor and capacitor. Named as a contraction for memory resistor, its theoretical existence was postulated in 1971 by L. O. Chua, based on symmetrical and logical properties observed in some electronic circuits. On the other hand its physical realization was announced only recently in a paper published on May 2008 issue of Nature by a research team from Hewlett–Packard Company. In this work, we present the bifurcation analysis of two memristor oscillators mathematical models, given by three-dimensional five-parameter piecewise-linear and cubic systems of ordinary differential equations. We show that depending on the parameter values, the systems may present the coexistence of both infinitely many stable periodic orbits and stable equilibrium points. The periodic orbits arise from the change in local stability of equilibrium points on a line of equilibria, for a fixed set of parameter values. This phenomenon is a kind of Hopf bifurcation without parameters. We have numerical evidences that such stable periodic orbits form an invariant surface, which is an attractor of the systems solutions. The results obtained imply that even for a fixed set of parameters the two systems studied may or may not present oscillations, depending on the initial condition considered in the phase space. Moreover, when they exist, the amplitude of the oscillations also depends on the initial conditions.

Line Of Equilibria

A model of two self-sustained oscillators interacting through memristive coupling is studied. The memristive coupling is realized by using a cubic memristor model. Numerical simulation is combined with theoretical analysis by means of quasi-harmonic reduction. It is shown that the specifics of the memristor nonlinearity results in the appearance of infinitely many equilibrium points which form a line of equilibria in the phase space of the system under study. It is established that the possibility to observe the effect of phase locking in the considered system depends on both parameter values and initial conditions. Consequently, the boundaries of the synchronization region are determined by the initial conditions. It is demonstrated that introducing or adding a small term into the memristor state equation gives rise to the disappearance of the line of equilibria and eliminates the dependence of synchronization on the initial conditions.

Limiting Case

We show that a planar slow–fast piecewise-linear (PWL) system with three zones admits limit cycles that share a lot of similarity with van der Pol canards, in particular an explosive growth. Using phase-space compactification, we show that these quasi-canard cycles are strongly related to a bifurcation at infinity. Furthermore, we investigate a limiting case in which we show the existence of a continuum of canard homoclinic connections that coexist for a single-parameter value and with amplitude ranging from an order of ε to an order of 1, a phenomenon truly associated with the non-smooth character of this system and which we call super-explosion .

In this paper, we study mathematical model of ecology with a tritrophic food chain composed of a classical Lotka-Volterra functional response for prey and predator, and a Holling type-III functional response for predator and super predator. There are two equilibrium points of the system. In the parameter space, there are passages from instability to stability, which are called Hopf bifurcation points. For the first equilibrium point, it is possible to find bifurcation points analytically and to prove that the system has periodic solutions around these points. Furthermore the dynamical behaviors of this model are investigated. Models for biologically reasonable parameter values, exhibits stable, unstable periodic and limit cycles. The dynamical behavior is found to be very sensitive to parameter values as well as the parameters of the practical life. Computer simulations are carried out to explain the analytical findings.
