Global Bifurcation on Time Scales

چکیده
We consider the structure of the solution set of a nonlinear SturmLiouville boundary value problem defined on a general time scale. Using global bifurcation theory we show that unbounded continua of non-trivial solutions bifurcate from the trivial solution at the eigenvalues of the linearization, and we show that certain nodal properties of the solutions are preserved along these continua. These results extend the well-known results of Rabinowitz for the case of Sturm-Liouville ordinary differential equations. Keywords, Sturm-Liouville, time scale, global bifurcation.

Vibration and Bifurcation Analysis of a Nonlinear Damped Mass Grounded System
In this paper, vibrations and bifurcation of a damped system consists of a mass grounded by linear and nonlinear springs and a nonlinear damper is studied. Nonlinear equation of motion is derived using Newton’s equations. Approximate analytical solutions are obtained using multiple time scales (MTS) method. For free vibration, the approximate analytical results are compared with the numerical i...
متن کاملThreshold harvesting policy and delayed ratio-dependent functional response predator-prey model
This paper deals with a delayed ratio-dependent functional response predator-prey model with a threshold harvesting policy. We study the equilibria of the system before and after the threshold. We show that the threshold harvesting can improve the undesirable behavior such as nonexistence of interior equilibria. The global analysis of the model as well as boundedness and permanence properties a...
متن کاملQualitative behavior of SIS epidemic model on time scales
Mathematical models in continuous or discrete time are widely used to simplify real-world systems in order to understand their mechanisms for a particular purpose. Consequently, a welldefined model should be able to carry out some predictions and be fitted to observational data in a variety of time measurements (seconds, hours, days, weeks, months, or years). Therefore, the time scales approach...
متن کاملOn a Burgers’ Type Equation
In this paper we study the dynamics of a Burgers’ type equation (1.1). First, we use a new method called attractor bifurcation introduced by Ma and Wang in [4, 6] to study the bifurcation of Burgers’ type equation out of the trivial solution. For Dirichlet boundary condition, we get pitchfork attractor bifurcation as the parameter λ crosses the first eigenvalue. For periodic boundary condition,...
متن کاملModeling neuronal bursting: singularity theory meets neurophysiology∗
Exploiting the specific structure of neuron conductance-based models, the paper investigates the mathematical modeling of neuronal bursting. The proposed approach combines singularity theory and geometric singular perturbations to unfold the geometry of multiple time-scales attractors in the neighborhood of high-codimension singularities. We detect a three-time scale bursting attractor in the u...
