Abstract

Bifurcation theory deals with the asymptotic (long time) behaviour of systems of differential equations (continuous time) or dynamical systems (discrete time). Generally these evolution laws are non-linear and involve a few adjustable parameters (for instance temperature or boundary conditions in hydrodynamics) (1,2). For certain critical values of these parameters, the asymptotic behaviour of the solution changes suddenly and qualitatively: this phenomenum is a bifurcation. This can be the transition from a stationary state to a limit cycle or from a periodic behaviour to a more erratic behaviour.
