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; this phenomenon is often referred to as the "destruction" of the bifurcation by the noise.

A Stochastic Pitchfork Bifurcation in Most Probable Phase Portraits [PDF]
We study stochastic bifurcation for a system under multiplicative stable Lévy noise (an important class of non-Gaussian noise), by examining the qualitative changes of equilibrium states with its most probable phase portraits. We have found some peculiar bifurcation phenomena in contrast to the deterministic counterpart: (i) When the non-Gaussianity ...

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.

Pitchfork Bifurcation In A Coupled Cell System [PDF]
Various biological phenomena, like cell differentiation and pattern formation in multicellular organisms, are explained using the bifurcation theory. Molecular network motifs like positive feedback and mutual repressor exhibit bifurcation and are responsible for the emergence of diverse cell types.

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.

Pseudo-Pitchfork Bifurcation of Feasible Regions in Power Systems [PDF]
Local bifurcations occur in power systems, causing changes in power system dynamic behaviors. These local bifurcations include the saddle-node bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation, and structure-induced bifurcation. This paper presents a new type of bifurcation

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

Universal Unfolding of Pitchfork Bifurcations and Shear-Band Formation in Rapid Granular Couette Flow [PDF]
A numerical bifurcation analysis is carried out to understand the role of gravity on the shear-band formation in rapid granular Couette flow. At {\it low} shear rates, there is a unique solution with a {\it plug} near the bottom wall and a {\it shear-layer} near the top-wall; this solution mirrors typical shearbanding-type profiles in earth-bound shear-

The random dynamical pitchfork bifurcation with additive Lévy noises [PDF]
This paper concerns the effects of additive non-Gaussian L\'evy noises on the pitchfork bifurcation. We consider two types of noises, $\alpha$-stable process and the truncated process. Under both $\alpha$-stable process and the truncated process, the classical pitchfork bifurcation model exists a unique invariant measure.

Non-smooth pitchfork bifurcations
The bifurcations of strange nonchaotic attractors in quasi-periodically forced systems are poorly understood. A simple two-parameter example is introduced which unifies previous observations of non-smooth pitchfork bifurcations and blowout bifurcations of strange nonchaotic attractors.
