Non-smooth systems can generate dynamics and bifurcations that are drastically different from their smooth counterparts. In this paper, we study such homoclinic bifurcations in a piecewise-smooth analytically tractable Lorenz-type system that was recently introduced by Belykh et al. [Chaos 29, 103108 (2019)]. Through a rigorous analysis, we demonstrate that the emergence of sliding motions leads to novel bifurcation scenarios in which bifurcations of unstable homoclinic orbits of a saddle can yield stable limit cycles. These bifurcations are in sharp contrast with their smooth analogs that can generate only unstable (saddle) dynamics. We construct a Poincaré return map that accounts for the presence of sliding motions, thereby rigorously characterizing sliding homoclinic bifurcations that destroy a chaotic Lorenz-type attractor. In particular, we derive an explicit scaling factor for period-doubling bifurcations associated with sliding multi-loop homoclinic orbits and the formation of a quasi-attractor. Our analytical results lay the foundation for the development of non-classical global bifurcation theory in non-smooth flow systems.

Using discrete fractional calculus, a wide variety of physiological phenomena with various time scales have been productively investigated. In order to comprehend the intricate dynamics and activity of neuronal processing, we investigate the behavior of a slow-fast FitzHugh-Rinzel (FH-R) simulation neuron that is driven by physiological considerations via the Caputo fractional difference scheme. Taking into account the discrete fractional commensurate and incommensurate mechanisms, we speculate on the numerical representations of various excitabilities and persistent activation reactions brought about by the administered stimulation.

Synchronization is an important phenomenon in a wide variety of systems comprising interacting oscillatory units, whether natural (like neurons, biochemical reactions, and cardiac cells) or artificial (like metronomes, power grids, and Josephson junctions). The Kuramoto model provides a simple description of these systems and has been useful in their mathematical exploration. Here, we investigate this model by combining two common features that have been observed in many systems: External periodic forcing and higher-order interactions among the elements.

In this article, we present a computational study of the Conductance-Based Adaptive Exponential (CAdEx) integrate-and-fire neuronal model, focusing on its multiple timescale nature, and on how it shapes its main dynamical regimes. In particular, we show that the spiking and so-called delayed bursting regimes of the model are triggered by discontinuity-induced bifurcations that are directly related to the multiple-timescale aspect of the model, and are mediated by canard solutions. By means of a numerical bifurcation analysis of the model, using the software package COCO, we can precisely describe the mechanisms behind these dynamical scenarios.

In this paper we study bifurcations in mass-action networks with two chemical species and reactant complexes of molecularity no more than two. We refer to these as planar, quadratic networks as they give rise to (at most) quadratic differential equations on the nonnegative quadrant of the plane. Our aim is to study bifurcations in networks in this class with the fewest possible reactions, and the lowest possible product molecularity.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on bistable oscillators, which can show both steady states and abnormal rhythms, and explores the concept of oscillation quenching, where an active rhythm transitions to a stable state.
- Researchers employed the extended Stuart-Landau oscillator model, examining how periodic forces affect the amplitude of the oscillations and using numerical simulations to analyze this behavior.
- The findings reveal that oscillation quenching occurs through a specific type of bifurcation when combining periodic forces with feedback, offering insights that could help in managing abnormal oscillations in various practical applications.
