Title
On the analysis of the bifurcation sets of equilibrium points in parameter space
Abstract
This paper addresses the problems of characterizing and estimating the bifurcation sets of equilibrium points in multi-parameter space of a class of nonlinear dynamical systems. Specifically, we investigate the sets of parameters that lead to saddle-node bifurcations and Hopf bifurcations at an equilibrium point of interest. First, a characterization of these sets is provided in terms of the zeros of some functions. Second, this characterization is exploited to estimate such sets through convex programming for the case of polynomial dynamical systems. In particular, two conditions are proposed for establishing whether a sublevel set of a given polynomial does not contain parameters that lead to bifurcations. By using these conditions, the largest of such sublevel sets can be estimated by solving an eigenvalue problem. Some numerical examples illustrate the proposed results.
