In this paper, a nonlinear delay population model is investigated. Choosing the delay as a bifurcation parameter, we demonstrate that Hopf bifurcation will occur when the delay exceeds a critical value. Global existence of bifurcating periodic solutions is established. Numerical simulations supporting the theoretical findings are included. Keywords—Population model; Stability; Hopf bifurcation;...

We first consider the existence of local Hopf bifurcations, and then derive the explicit formulas which determine the stability, direction and other properties of bifurcating periodic solutions, using the normal form theory and center manifold reduction. Further, particular attention is focused on the existence of the global Hopf bifurcation. By using the global Hopf bifurcation theory due to W...

We consider a delayed predator-prey system with Holling II functional response. Firstly, the paper considers the stability and local Hopf bifurcation for a delayed prey-predator model using the basic theorem on zeros of general transcendental function, which was established by Cook etc.. Secondly, special attention is paid to the global existence of periodic solutions bifurcating from Hopf bifu...

in this paper, a bidirectional associative memory (bam) neural network, which consists of two neurons in the x-layer and three neurons in the y-layer, with two time delays will be studied. we conclude that under some assumptions, hopf bifurcation occurs when the sum of two delays passes through a critical value. a numerical example is presented to support our theoretical results.

Astounding properties of biological sensors can often be mapped onto a dynamical system in the vicinity a bifurcation. For mammalian hearing, a Hopf bifurcation description has been shown to work across a whole range of scales, from individual hair bundles to whole regions of the cochlea. We reveal here the origin of this scale-invariance, from a general level, applicable to all neuronal dynami...

This paper focuses on Hopf bifurcation control in a dual model of Internet congestion control algorithms which is modeled as a delay differential equation (DDE). By choosing communication delay as a bifurcation parameter, it has been demonstrated that the system loses stability and a Hopf bifurcation occurs when communication delay passes through a critical value. Therefore, a time-delayed feed...

In this paper, we consider controlling and anti-controlling Hopf bifurcations in discrete maps using feedback controller of polynomial functions. It is shown that such a polynomial feedback controller is easy to be implemented, which not only preserves the system s equilibrium solutions, but also keeps the dimension of the system unchanged. Examples are used to show, with this type of controlle...

The effect of distributed delays with strong kernel in the dynamics in three-neuron BAM neural network model is studied. Instead of destabilization phenomena this neural systems become asymptotically stable through Hopf bifurcation with the gradual increment of mean delay. Existence of Hopf bifurcation is studied in frequency domain. Direction and stability of Hopf bifurcating periodic solution...
