Approximation of Hopf bifurcation

Numerische Mathematik Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

We make several assumptions on a nonlinear evolution problem, ensuring the existence of a Hopf bifurcation. Under a fairly general approximation condition, we define a discrete problem which retains the bifurcation property and we prove an error estimate between the branches of exact and approximate periodic solutions.
