Variational inequalities U ( t ) K , ( U ˙ ( t ) - B λ U ( t ) - G ( λ , U ( t ) ) , Z - U ( t ) ) 0 for all Z K , a.a. t [ 0 , T ) are studied, where K is a closed convex cone in κ , κ 3 , B λ is a κ × κ matrix, G is a small perturbation, λ a real parameter. The assumptions guaranteeing a Hopf bifurcation at some λ 0 for the corresponding equation are considered and it is proved that then, in some situations, also a bifurcation of periodic solutions to our inequality occurs at some λ I λ 0 . Bifurcating solutions are obtained by the limiting process along branches of solutions to penalty problems starting...
