Trans-heteroclinic bifurcation: a novel type of catastrophic shift [PDF]
Global and local bifurcations are extremely important since they govern the transitions between different qualitative regimes in dynamical systems. These transitions or tipping points, which are ubiquitous in nature, can be smooth or catastrophic. Smooth

Heteroclinic Connection of Periodic Solutions of Delay Differential Equations [PDF]
For a certain class of delay equations with piecewise constant nonlinearities we prove the existence of a rapidly oscillating stable periodic solution and a rapidly oscillating unstable periodic solution. Introducing an appropriate Poincaré map, the dynamics of the system may essentially be reduced to a two dimensional map, the periodic solutions being

Reconfiguration of a smart surface using heteroclinic connections. [PDF]
A reconfigurable smart surface with multiple equilibria is presented, modelled using discrete point masses and linear springs with geometric nonlinearity. An energy-efficient reconfiguration scheme is then investigated to connect equal-energy unstable (but actively controlled) equilibria.

Heteroclinic connections for a class of non-autonomous systems
We prove the existence of heteroclinic connections for a system of ordinary differential equations, with time-dependent coefficients, which is reminiscent of the ODE arising in connection with traveling waves for the Fisher equation.

On the Melnikov function [PDF]
In this article, we have tried to introduce one of the most important topics in the subject of dynamical systems, namely the Melnikov function, in simple language.

Metric methods for heteroclinic connections [PDF]
We consider the problem among curves connecting two given wells of W≥0, and we reduce it, following a standard method, to a geodesic problem of the form with . We then prove existence of curves minimizing this new action just by proving that the distance induced by K is proper (i.e., its closed balls are compact). The assumptions on W are minimal,

Heteroclinic connections for nonlocal equations [PDF]
We construct heteroclinic orbits for a strongly nonlocal integro-differential equation. Since the energy associated to the equation is infinite in such strongly nonlocal regime, the proof, based on variational methods, relies on a renormalized energy functional, exploits a perturbation method of viscosity type, combined with an auxiliary penalization ...

Exploration of non-resonant divertor features on the Compact Toroidal Hybrid
Non-resonant divertors (NRDs) separate the confined plasma from the surrounding plasma facing components (PFCs). The resulting striking field line intersection pattern on these PFCs is insensitive to plasma equilibrium effects.
