Homoclinic and quasi-homoclinic solutions for damped differential equations
Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2015 We study the existence and multiplicity of homoclinic solutions for the second-order damped differential equation $$ \ddot{u}+c\dot{u}-L(t)u+W_u(t,u)=0, $$ where L(t) and W(t,u) are neither autonomous nor periodic in t. Under certain assumptions on

Bifurcation of big periodic orbits through symmetric homoclinics, application to Duffing equation [PDF]
Journal of Mahani Mathematical Research, 2023 We consider a planar symmetric vector field that undergoes a homoclinic bifurcation. In order to study the existence of exterior periodic solutions of the vector field around broken symmetric homoclinic orbits, we investigate the existence of fixed ...

Mathematics, 2021 The existence of homoclinic orbits or heteroclinic cycle plays a crucial role in chaos research. This paper investigates the existence of the homoclinic orbits to a saddle-focus equilibrium point in several classes of three-dimensional piecewise affine ...

Imperfect homoclinic bifurcations [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2001 Experimental observations of an almost symmetric electronic circuit show complicated sequences of bifurcations. These results are discussed in the light of a theory of imperfect global bifurcations. It is shown that much of the dynamics observed in the circuit can be understood by reference to imperfect homoclinic bifurcations without constructing an ...

Stabilizing a homoclinic stripe [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2018 For a large class of reaction–diffusion systems with large diffusivity ratio, it is well known that a two-dimensional stripe (whose cross-section is a one-dimensional homoclinic spike) is unstable and breaks up into spots. Here, we study two effects that can stabilize such a homoclinic stripe. First, we consider the addition of anisotropy to the model.

Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 1976 Results of R. C. Robinson and D. Pixton on the existence of homoclinic points for diffeomorphisms on the two-sphere are extended. An application to area preserving diffeomorphisms on surfaces is given.

Codimension 3 bifurcation from orbit-flip homoclinic orbit of weak type
Electronic Journal of Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations, 2015 This article is devoted to the research of a new codimension 3 homoclinic orbit bifurcation, which is the orbit-flip of weak type. Such kind of homoclinic orbit is a degenerate case of the orbit-flip homoclinic orbit.

Nonhyperbolic homoclinic chaos [PDF]
Physics Letters A, 1999 Homoclinic chaos is usually examined with the hypothesis of hyperbolicity of the critical point. We consider here, following a (suitably adjusted) classical analytic method, the case of non-hyperbolic points and show that, under a Melnikov-type condition plus an additional assumption, the negatively and positively asymptotic sets persist under periodic

Nonreversible homoclinic snaking [PDF]
Dynamical Systems, 2011 Homoclinic snaking refers to the sinusoidal snaking continuation curve of homoclinic orbits near a heteroclinic cycle connecting an equilibrium E and a periodic orbit P. Along this curve the homoclinic orbit performs more and more windings about the periodic orbit. Typically this behaviour appears in reversible Hamiltonian systems. Here we discuss this
