Homogeneous polynomial vector fields of degree 2 on the 2-dimensional sphere.

Jaume Llibre, Claudio Pessoa (2006)

Extracta Mathematicae

Let X be a homogeneous polynomial vector field of degree 2 on S2 having finitely many invariant circles. Then, we prove that each invariant circle is a great circle of S2, and at most there are two invariant circles. We characterize the global phase portrait of these vector fields. Moreover, we show that if X has at least an invariant circle then it does not have limit cycles.

Homology of origamis with symmetries

Carlos Matheus, Jean-Christophe Yoccoz, David Zmiaikou (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Given an origami (square-tiled surface) M with automorphism group Γ , we compute the decomposition of the first homology group of M into isotypic Γ -submodules. Through the action of the affine group of M on the homology group, we deduce some consequences for the multiplicities of the Lyapunov exponents of the Kontsevich-Zorich cocycle. We also construct and study several families of interesting origamis illustrating our results.

Homotopical dynamics of gradient flows

Octavian Cornea (1998)

Banach Center Publications

In this paper we will be interested in results surrounding the following basic question: what are the homotopy properties that one can extract from a gradient flow? We approach this question by decomposing it into three parts: 1. Identify what are the homotopical objects that are provided by the flow (e.g. critical points, Conley indexes). 2. Discover what are the relations that have to be satisfied by these objects (e.g. Morse inequalities, Lusternik-Schnirelmann type inequalities). 3. (The Realizability...

Homotopy and dynamics for homeomorphisms of solenoids and Knaster continua

Jarosław Kwapisz (2001)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We describe the homotopy classes of self-homeomorphisms of solenoids and Knaster continua. In particular, we demonstrate that homeomorphisms within one homotopy class have the same (explicitly given) topological entropy and that they are actually semi-conjugate to an algebraic homeomorphism in the case when the entropy is positive.

Hopf Bifurcation Analysis of Pathogen-Immune Interaction Dynamics With Delay Kernel

M. Neamţu, L. Buliga, F. R. Horhat, D. Opriş (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The aim of this paper is to study the steady states of the mathematical models with delay kernels which describe pathogen-immune dynamics of infectious diseases. In the study of mathematical models of infectious diseases it is important to predict whether the infection disappears or the pathogens persist. The delay kernel is described by the memory function that reflects the influence of the past density of pathogen in the blood and it is given by a nonnegative bounded and normated function k defined...

Hopf bifurcation analysis of some hyperchaotic systems with time-delay controllers

Lan Zhang, Cheng Jian Zhang (2008)

Kybernetika

A four-dimensional hyperchaotic Lü system with multiple time-delay controllers is considered in this paper. Based on the theory of Hopf bifurcation in delay system, we obtain a simple relationship between the parameters when the system has a periodic solution. Numerical simulations show that the assumption is a rational condition, choosing parameter in the determined region can control hyperchaotic Lü system well, the chaotic state is transformed to the periodic orbit. Finally, we consider the differences...
