On the pitchfork bifurcation for the Chafee–Infante equation with additive noise [PDF]
We investigate pitchfork bifurcations for a stochastic reaction diffusion equation perturbed by an infinite-dimensional Wiener process. It is well-known that the random attractor is a singleton, independently of the value of the bifurcation parameter ...

Hopf-Pitchfork Bifurcation in a Phytoplankton-Zooplankton Model with Delays [PDF]
The purpose of this paper is to study the dynamics of a phytoplankton-zooplankton model with toxin delay. By studying the distribution of the eigenvalues of the associated characteristic equation, the pitchfork bifurcation curve of the system is obtained.

Bifurcation of Dividing Surfaces Constructed from a Pitchfork Bifurcation of Periodic Orbits in a Symmetric Potential Energy Surface with a Post-Transition-State Bifurcation [PDF]
In this work, we analyze the bifurcation of dividing surfaces that occurs as a result of a pitchfork bifurcation of periodic orbits in a two degrees of freedom Hamiltonian System.

The Pitchfork Bifurcation [PDF]
We present the development of a new theory of the pitchfork bifurcation, which removes the perspective of the third derivative and a requirement of symmetry.

Non-smooth pitchfork bifurcations
The author considers the relationship between the blow-out bifurcation and another bifurcation which creates a pair of stable invariant curves and can properly be called a generalized pitchfork bifurcation. The goal of this paper is to show that the two types of bifurcation (generalized) described above are really part of the same generalized ...

Bifurcation of Nongeneric Homoclinic Orbit Accompanied by Pitchfork Bifurcation [PDF]
The bifurcation of a nongeneric homoclinic orbit (i.e., the orbit comes from the equilibrium along the unstable manifold instead of the center manifold) connecting a nonhyperbolic equilibrium is investigated, and the nonhyperbolic equilibrium undergoes ...

Fronts in the Wake of a Parameter Ramp: Slow Passage through Pitchfork and Fold Bifurcations [PDF]
This work studies front formation in the Allen-Cahn equation with a parameter heterogeneity which slowly varies in space. In particular, we consider a heterogeneity which mediates the local stability of the zero state and subsequent pitchfork bifurcation

The effect of noise on pitchfork and Hopf bifurcations [PDF]
Summary: We present the results of an experimental and numerical investigation of the effects of noise on pitchfork and Hopf bifurcations. Good quantitative agreement is found between calculations and experiment. In the case of the pitchfork we find that natural imperfections override the effects of the noise. However, novel noise amplification effects

Pitchfork bifurcations of invariant manifolds
A pitchfork bifurcation of an $(m-1)$-dimensional invariant submanifold of a dynamical system in $\mathbb{R}^m$ is defined analogous to that in $\mathbb{R}$. Sufficient conditions for such a bifurcation to occur are stated and existence of the bifurcated manifolds is proved under the stated hypotheses.
