COLLECTIVE DYNAMICS AND CONTROL OF A 3-D SMALL-WORLD NETWORK WITH TIME DELAYS

The paper presents a detailed analysis on the collective dynamics and delayed state feedback control of a three-dimensional delayed small-world network. The trivial equilibrium of the model is first investigated, showing that the uncontrolled model exhibits complicated unbounded behavior. Then three control strategies, namely a position feedback control, a velocity feedback control, and a hybrid control combined velocity with acceleration feedback, are then introduced to stabilize this unstable system. It is shown in these three control schemes that only the hybrid control can easily stabilize the 3-D network system. And with properly chosen delay and gain in the delayed feedback path, the hybrid controlled model may have stable equilibrium, or periodic solutions resulting from the Hopf bifurcation, or complex stranger attractor from the period-doubling bifurcation. Moreover, the direction of Hopf bifurcation and stability of the bifurcation periodic solutions are analyzed. The results are further extended to any "d" dimensional network. It shows that to stabilize a "d" dimensional delayed small-world network, at least a "d – 1" order completed differential feedback is needed. This work provides a constructive suggestion for the high dimensional delayed systems.

Bifurcation analysis of a simple 3D oscillator and chaos synchronization of its coupled systems

Tamaševičius et al. proposed a simple 3D chaotic oscillator for educational purpose. In fact the oscillator can be implemented very easily and it shows typical bifurcation scenario so that it is a suitable training object for introductory education for students. However, as far as we know, no concrete studies on bifurcations or applications on this oscillator have been investigated. In this paper, we make a thorough investigation on local bifurcations of periodic solutions in this oscillator by using a shooting method. Based on results of the analysis, we study chaos synchronization phenomena in diffusively coupled oscillators. Both bifurcation sets of periodic solutions and parameter regions of in-phase synchronized solutions are revealed. An experimental laboratory of chaos synchronization is also demonstrated.

On the global bifurcation of periodic solutions of differential inclusions in Hilbert spaces

In this paper, applying the method of guiding functions, we study the global bifurcation problems for periodic solutions of first order parametrized differential inclusions in Hilbert spaces. As application we consider the global structure of a set of periodic trajectories for a family of feedback control systems.

Stability and bifurcation periodic solutions in a Lotka–Volterra competition system with multiple delays

This paper is concerned with a Lotka–Volterra competition system with multiple delays. Firstly, we investigate the existence and stability of the positive equilibrium. In particular, we find that the system has Hopf bifurcation at the positive equilibrium, whereas this singularity does not occur for the corresponding system with two delays when interspecies competition is weaker than intraspecies competition. Secondly, we analyze the stability of the periodic solutions by reducing the original system on the center manifold. Finally, some numerical examples are given to verify our theoretical results.

Bifurcation of periodic solutions from a ring configuration in the vortex and filament problems

This paper gives an analysis of the movement of n+1 almost parallel filaments or vortices. Starting from a polygonal equilibrium of n vortices with equal circulation and one vortex at the center of the polygon, we find bifurcation of periodic solutions. The bifurcation result makes use of the orthogonal degree in order to prove the global bifurcation of periodic solutions depending on the circulation of the central vortex. In the case of the filament problem these solutions are periodic traveling waves.

Transition sets of bifurcations of dynamical systems with two state variables with constraints

Bifurcation of periodic solutions widely exists in nonlinear dynamical systems. In this paper, categories of bifurcations of systems with two state variables with different types of constraints are discussed, where some new types of transition sets are added. Additionally, the bifurcation properties of two-dimensional systems without constraints are compared with the ones with constraints. The results obtained in this paper can be used by engineers for the choice of the structural parameters of the systems.

Estimates of Periods and Global Continua of Periodic Solutions for State-Dependent Delay Equations

We study the global Hopf bifurcation of periodic solutions for one-parameter systems of state-dependent delay differential equations, and specifically we obtain a priori estimates of the periods in terms of certain values of the state-dependent delay along continua of periodic solutions in the Fuller space $C(\mathbb{R};\mathbb{R}^{N+1})\times\mathbb{R}^2$. We present an example of three-dimensional state-dependent delay differential equations to illustrate the general results.

Bifurcations from nondegenerate families of periodic solutions in Lipschitz systems

The paper addresses the problem of bifurcation of periodic solutions from a normally nondegenerate family of periodic solutions of ordinary differential equations under perturbations. The approach to solve this problem can be described as transforming (by a Lyapunov–Schmidt reduction) the initial system into one which is in the standard form of averaging, and subsequently applying the averaging principle. This approach encounters a fundamental problem when the perturbation is only Lipschitz (nonsmooth) as we do not longer have smooth Lyapunov–Schmidt projectors. The situation of Lipschitz perturbations has been addressed in the literature lately and the results obtained conclude the existence of the bifurcated branch of periodic solutions. Motivated by recent challenges in control theory, we are interested in the uniqueness problem. We achieve this in the case when the Lipschitz constant of the perturbation obeys a suitable estimate.

A class of two‐neuron networks with resonant bilinear terms is considered. The stability of the zero equilibrium and existence of Hopf bifurcation is studied.
