Abstract

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>Hopf bifurcations of a Lengyel-Epstein model involving two discrete time delays are investigated. First, stability analysis of the model is given, and then the conditions on parameters at which the system has a Hopf bifurcation are determined. Second, bifurcation analysis is given by taking one of delay parameters as a bifurcation parameter while fixing the other in its stability interval to show the existence of Hopf bifurcations. The normal form theory and the center manifold reduction for functional differential equations have been utilized to determine some properties of the Hopf bifurcation including the direction and stability of bifurcating periodic solution. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to support theoretical results. Analytical results together with numerics present that time delay has a crucial role on the dynamical behavior of Chlorine Dioxide-Iodine-Malonic Acid (CIMA) reaction governed by a system of nonlinear differential equations. Delay causes oscillations in the reaction system. These results are compatible with those observed experimentally.</p>
