Homoclinic Orbits In Slowly Varying Oscillators [PDF]
We obtain existence and bifurcation theorems for homoclinic orbits in three-dimensional flows that are perturbations of families of planar Hamiltonian systems. The perturbations may or may not depend explicitly on time.

Scarring by homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits [PDF]
In addition to the well known scarring effect of periodic orbits, we show here that homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits, which are cornerstones in the theory of classical chaos, also scar eigenfunctions of classically chaotic systems when associated ...

Homoclinic Orbits and Lagrangian Embeddings [PDF]
This paper introduces techniques of symplectic topology to the study of homoclinic orbits in Hamiltonian systems. The main result is a strong generalization of homoclinic existence results due to Sere and to Coti-Zelati, Ekeland and Sere, which were obtained by variational methods.

On homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits for Hamiltonian systems [PDF]
The authors give sufficient conditions for the existence of homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits of Hamiltonian systems \[ u''-L(t)u+V_u(t,u)=0,\tag{*} \] where \(L\) is a symmetric positive definite \(n\times n\) matrix and the potential \(V\) is supposed to be superquadratic in \(u\).

Are physiological oscillations physiological?
Abstract figure legend Mechanisms and functions of physiological oscillations. Abstract Despite widespread and striking examples of physiological oscillations, their functional role is often unclear. Even glycolysis, the paradigm example of oscillatory biochemistry, has seen questions about its oscillatory function.

On the Homoclinic Orbits of the Lü System [PDF]
In this paper, the existence of homoclinic orbits of the equilibrium point [Formula: see text] is demonstrated in the case of the Lü system for parameter values not reported by G. A. Leonov. In addition, some simulations are shown that agree with our theoretical analysis.

Homoclinic Orbits in Families of Hypersurfaces with Hyperbolic Periodic Orbits
The author considers the Hamiltonian system \(\dot{X}=J\nabla H(X)\) on \(\mathbb{C}^n\) with a \(C^2\)-Hamiltonian \(H:\mathbb{C}^n\to\mathbb{R}\). Here \(J\) induces the standard symplectic structure on \(\mathbb{C}^n\). Denote \(X=(x,y)\in\mathbb{C}\times\mathbb{C}^{n-1}\).

Homoclinic orbits to invariant tori near a homoclinic orbit to center–center–saddle equilibrium [PDF]
We consider a perturbation of an integrable Hamiltonian vector field with three degrees of freedom with a center–center–saddle equilibrium having a homoclinic orbit or loop. With the help of a Poincaré map (chosen based on the unperturbed homoclinic loop), we study the homoclinic intersections between the stable and unstable manifolds associated to ...

An example of bifurcation to homoclinic orbits
AbstractConsider the equation ẍ − x + x2 = −λ1x + λ2ƒ(t) where ƒ(t + 1) = ƒ(t) and λ = (λ1, λ2) is small. For λ = 0, there is a homoclinic orbit Γ through zero. For λ ≠ 0 and small, there can be “strange” attractors near Γ. The purpose of this paper is to determine the curves in λ-space of bifurcation to “strange” attractors and to relate this to ...
