Professor

46:54·2014·undergraduate level

This lecture analyzes various bifurcations of fixed points and periodic orbits in two-dimensional nonlinear systems, including saddle-node, transcritical, pitchfork, and Hopf bifurcations, referencing Strogatz's "Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos."

Bifurcations of fixed points: saddle-node, transcritical, pitchfork. Hopf bifurcations. Other bifurcations of periodic orbits.

Reading: Strogatz, "Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos", Sections 8.0--8.2.
