Abstract
We study the bifurcations of small amplitude time-periodic solutions and chaotic solutions of a two-component integro-differential reaction-diffusion system in one spatial dimension. The system has doubly degenerate points and triply degenerate points. The following results are obtained. (I) Around the doubly degenerate points, a reduced two-dimensional dynamical system on the center manifold is obtained. We find that the small amplitude stable time-periodic solutions can bifurcate from the non-uniform stationary solutions through the Hopf bifurcations for all $n$. (II) Around the triply degenerate point, a three-dimensional dynamical system on the center manifold is obtained. The reduced system can be transformed into normal form for the Hopf-Pitchfork bifurcation. The truncated normal form can possess the invariant tori and the heteroclinic loop. Furthermore, the system under the non $S^{1}$-symmetric perturbation may possess the Shil'nikov type homoclinic orbit. Numerical results for the integro-differential reaction-diffusion system are presented and found to be convincing.
