A Torus Bifurcation Theorem with Symmetry

چکیده

A general theory for the study of degenerate Hopf bifurcation in the presence of symmetry has been carried out only in situations where the normal form equations decoupte into phase/amplitude equations. In this paper we prove a theorem showing that in general we expect such degeneracies to lead to secondary torus bifurcations. We then apply this theorem to the case of degenerate Hopf bifurcation with triangular (D3) symmetry, proving that in codimension two there exist regions of parameter space where two branches of asymptotically stable 2-tori coexist but where no stable periodic solutions are present. Although this study does not lead to a theory for degenerate Hopf bifurcations in the presence of symmetry, it does present examples that would have to be accounted for by any such general theory.

Double Hopf Bifurcation with Huygens Symmetry

Double Hopf bifurcations have been studied prior to this work in the generic nonresonant case and in certain strongly resonant cases, including 1:1 resonance. In this paper, the case of symmetrically coupled identical oscillators, motivated by the classic problem of synchronization of Huygens’ clocks, is studied using the codimension-three Elphick–Huygens equivariant normal form presented here....

Symmetry-breaking Hopf bifurcations to 1-, 2-, and 3-tori in small-aspect-ratio counterrotating Taylor-Couette flow.

The nonlinear dynamics of Taylor-Couette flow in a small-aspect-ratio wide-gap annulus in the counterrotating regime is investigated by solving the full three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. The system is invariant under arbitrary rotations about the axis, reflection about the annulus midplane, and time translations. A systematic investigation is presented both in terms of the flow physics...

Transition to High-Dimensional Chaos through quasiperiodic Motion

In this contribution we report on a transition to high-dimensional chaos through three-frequency quasiperiodic behavior. The resulting chaotic attractor has a one positive and two null Lyapunov exponents. The transition occurs at the point at which two symmetry related threedimensional tori merge in a crisis-like bifurcation. The route can be summarized as: 2D torus → 3D torus→ high-dimensional...

Generic Twistless Bifurcations

We show that in the neighborhood of the tripling bifurcation of a periodic orbit of a Hamiltonian flow or of a fixed point of an area preserving map, there is generically a bifurcation that creates a “twistless” torus. At this bifurcation, the twist, which is the derivative of the rotation number with respect to the action, vanishes. The twistless torus moves outward after it is created, and ev...

Hopf Bifurcation from Relative Periodic Solutions; Secondary Bifurcations from Meandering Spirals

We consider nonresonant and weakly resonant Hopf bifurcation from periodic solutions and relative periodic solutions in dynamical systems with symmetry. In particular, we analyse phase-locking and irrational torus flows on the bifurcating relative tori. Results are obtained for systems with compact and noncompact symmetry group. In the noncompact case, we distinguish between bounded and unbound...
