โœฆ Synopsis

Homoclinic cycles exist robustly in dynamical systems with symmetry, and may undergo various bifurcations, not all of which have an analog in the absence of symmetry. We analyze such a bifurcation, the transverse bifurcation; and uncover a variety of phenomena that can be distinguished representation-theoretically. For example, exponentially flat branches of periodic solutions (a typical feature of bifurcation from homoclinic cycles) occur for some but not all representations of the symmetry group. Our study of transverse bifurcations is motivated by the problem of intermittent dynamos in rotating convection.

In this note, we consider the dynamic that appears when we unfold a quadratic degenerate homoclinic point of a generic one-parameter family of endomorphisms fP. This is done through a resealing technique. Among other facts, it follows from our theorem the abundance of strange expanding sets.

We use the manifold approach to study the homoclinic bifurcations of a saddle fixed point in three-dimensional flows. With the introduction of time delay functions and symbolic rules on manifolds, we construct complete three-dimensional pictures of the invariant manifolds for the global flows.

This paper shows that asymmetrically perturbed, symmetric Hamiltonian systems of the form with analytic \* j (=)=O(=), have at most two limit cycles that bifurcate for small ={0 from any period annulus of the unperturbed system. This fact agrees with previous results of Petrov, Dangelmayr and Gucke
