Singularities and groups in bifurcation theory

About “Singularities and groups in bifurcation theory”

Bifurcation theory studies how the structure of solutions to equations changes as parameters are varied, with the nature of these changes influenced by the number of parameters and the symmetries of the equations. This volume focuses on bifurcation problems with symmetry and demonstrates how group-theoretic techniques aid the understanding of transitions in symmetric systems, covering group theory and steady-state bifurcation, equicariant singularity theory, Hopf bifurcation with symmetry, and mode interactions.
