Abstract

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>We study local bifurcations of periodic solutions to time-periodic (systems of) integrodifference equations over compact habitats. Such infinite-dimensional discrete dynamical systems arise in theoretical ecology as models to describe the spatial dispersal of species having nonoverlapping generations. Our explicit criteria allow us to identify branchings of fold- and crossing curve-type, which include the classical transcritical-, pitchfork- and flip-scenario as special cases. Indeed, not only tools to detect qualitative changes in models from e.g. spatial ecology and related simulations are provided, but these critical transitions are also classified. In addition, the bifurcation behavior of various time-periodic integrodifference equations is investigated and illustrated. This requires a combination of analytical methods and numerical tools based on Nyström discretization of the integral operators involved.
