Hypercycles are catalytic systems with cyclic architecture. These systems have been suggested to play a key role in the maintenance and increase of information in prebiotic replicators. It is known that for a large enough number of hypercycle species ([Formula: see text]) the coexistence of all hypercycle members is governed by a stable periodic orbit. Previous research has characterized saddle-node (s-n) bifurcations involving abrupt transitions from stable hypercycles to extinction of all hypercycle members, or, alternatively, involving the outcompetition of the hypercycle by so-called mutant sequences or parasites. Recently, the presence of a bifurcation gap between a s-n bifurcation of periodic orbits and a s-n of fixed points has been described for symmetric five-member hypercycles. This gap was found between the value of the replication quality factor [Formula: see text] from which the periodic orbit vanishes ([Formula: see text]) and the value where two unstable (nonzero) equilibrium points collide ([Formula: see text]). Here, we explore the persistence of this gap considering asymmetries in replication rates in five-member hypercycles as well as considering symmetric, larger hypercycles. Our results indicate that both the asymmetry in Malthusian replication constants and the increase in hypercycle members enlarge the size of this gap. The implications of this phenomenon are discussed in the context of delayed transitions associated to the so-called saddle remnants.

In this paper, the research of the Jacobi stability of the Chen system is performed by using the KCC-theory. By associating a nonlinear connection and a Berwald connection, five geometrical invariants of the Chen system are obtained. The Jacobi stability of the Chen system at equilibrium points and a periodic orbit is investigated in terms of the eigenvalues of the deviation curvature tensor. The obtained results show that the origin is always Jacobi unstable, while the Jacobi stability of the other two nonzero equilibrium points depends on the values of the parameters. And a periodic orbit of the Chen system is proved to be also Jacobi unstable. Furthermore, Jacobi stability regions of the Chen system and the Lorenz system are compared. Finally, the dynamical behavior of the components of the deviation vector near the equilibrium points is also discussed.

The Stability

This paper investigates a toxic phytoplankton–zooplankton model with Michaelis–Menten type phytoplankton harvesting. The model has rich dynamical behaviors. It undergoes transcritical, saddle-node, fold, Hopf, fold-Hopf and double Hopf bifurcation, when the parameters change and go through some of the critical values, the dynamical properties of the system will change also, such as the stability, equilibrium points and the periodic orbit. We first study the stability of the equilibria, and analyze the critical conditions for the above bifurcations at each equilibrium. In addition, the stability and direction of local Hopf bifurcations, and the completion bifurcation set by calculating the universal unfoldings near the double Hopf bifurcation point are given by the normal form theory and center manifold theorem. We obtained that the stable coexistent equilibrium point and stable periodic orbit alternate regularly when the digestion time delay is within some finite value. That is, we derived the pattern for the occurrence, and disappearance of a stable periodic orbit. Furthermore, we calculated the approximation expression of the critical bifurcation curve using the digestion time delay and the harvesting rate as parameters, and determined a large range in terms of the harvesting rate for the phytoplankton and zooplankton to coexist in a long term.

Autonomous Dynamical System

It is well known that an autonomous dynamical system can have a stable periodic orbit, arising for example through a Hopf bifurcation. When a collection of such oscillators is coupled together, the system can display a number of phase-locked solutions which can be understood in the weak coupling limit by using a phase model. It is also well known that a stable periodic orbit can be found for a parametrically forced dynamical system, with the phase of the periodic orbit being locked to the forcing. Here we discuss the periodic solutions which occur for a collection of such parametrically forced oscillators that are weakly coupled together.

In this paper, Jacobi stability of a segmented disc dynamo system is geometrically investigated from viewpoint of Kosambi–Cartan–Chern (KCC) theory in Finsler geometry. First, the geometric objects associated to the reformulated system are explicitly obtained. Second, the Jacobi stability of equilibria and a periodic orbit are discussed in the light of deviation curvature tensor. It is shown that all the equilibria are always Jacobi unstable for any parameters, a Lyapunov stable periodic orbit falls into both Jacobi stable regions and Jacobi unstable regions. The considered system is not robust to small perturbations of the equilibria, and some fragments of the periodic orbit are included in fragile region, indicating that the system is extremely sensitive to internal parameters and environment. Finally, the dynamics of the deviation vector and its curvature near all the equilibria are presented to interpret the onset of chaos in the dynamo system. In a physical sense, magnetic fluxes and angular velocity can show irregular oscillations under some certain cases, these oscillations may reveal the irregularity of magnetic field’s evolution and reversals.

Dynamical Properties

A strong Schwarzian derivative is defined, and it is shown that the convolution of a function with a map from an interval into itself having negative strong Schwarzian derivative is a function with negative Schwarzian derivative. Such convolutions have0as a stable periodic point and at most one other stable periodic orbit in the interior of the domain.
