Bifurcation without Parameters
Targeted at mathematicians having at least a basic familiarity with classical bifurcation theory, this monograph provides a systematic classification and analysis of bifurcations without parameters in dynamical systems. Although the methods and concepts are briefly introduced, a prior knowledge of center-manifold reductions and normal-form calculations will help the reader to appreciate the presentation. Bifurcations without parameters occur along manifolds of equilibria, at points where normal hyperbolicity of the manifold is violated. The general theory, illustrated by many applications, aims at a geometric understanding of the local dynamics near the bifurcation points.

Providing readers with a solid basis in dynamical systems theory, as well as explicit procedures for application of general mathematical results to particular problems, the focus here is on efficient numerical implementations of the developed techniques. The book is designed for advanced undergraduates or graduates in applied mathematics, as well as for Ph.D. students and researchers in physics, biology, engineering, and economics who use dynamical systems as model tools in their studies. A moderate mathematical background is assumed, and, whenever possible, only elementary mathematical tools are used. This new edition preserves the structure of the first while updating the context to incorporate recent theoretical developments, in particular new and improved numerical methods for bifurcation analysis.

This textbook provides a thorough overview of bifurcation theory. Assuming some familiarity with differential equations and dynamical systems, it is suitable for use on advanced undergraduate and graduate level and can, in particular, be used for a graduate course on bifurcation theory. The book combines a solid theoretical basis with a detailed description of classical bifurcations. It is organized in chapters on local, nonlocal, and global bifurcations; a number of appendices develop the toolbox for the study of bifurcations. The discussed local bifurcations include saddle-node and Hopf bifurcations, as well as the more advanced Bogdanov-Takens and Neimark-Sacker bifurcations. The book also covers nonlocal bifurcations, discussing various homoclinic bifurcations, and it surveys global bifurcations and phenomena, such as intermittency and period-doubling cascades. The book develops a broad range of complementary techniques, both geometric and analytic, for studying bifurcations. Techniques include normal form methods, center manifold reductions, the Lyapunov-Schmidt construction, cross-coordinate constructions, Melnikov's method, and Lin's method. Full proofs of the results are provided, also for the material in the appendices. This includes proofs of the stable manifold theorem, of the center manifold theorem, and of Lin's method for studying homoclinic bifurcations.
