Abstract

The dynamical behavior of a general n-dimensional delay differential equation (DDE) around a 1:3 resonant double Hopf bifurcation point is analyzed. The method of multiple scales is used to obtain complex bifurcation equations. By expressing complex amplitudes in a mixed polar-Cartesian representation, the complex bifurcation equations are again obtained in real form. As an illustration, a system of two coupled van der Pol oscillators is considered and a set of parameter values for which a 1:3 resonant double Hopf bifurcation occurs is established. The dynamical behavior around the resonant double Hopf bifurcation point is analyzed in terms of three control parameters. The validity of analytical results is shown by their consistency with numerical simulations.
