When a real saddle equilibrium in a three-dimensional vector field undergoes a homoclinic bifurcation, the associated two-dimensional invariant manifold of the equilibrium closes on itself in an orientable or nonorientable way, provided the corresponding genericity conditions hold. We are interested in the interaction between global invariant manifolds of saddle equilibria and saddle periodic orbits for a vector field close to a codimension-two homoclinic flip bifurcation, that is, the point of transition between having an orientable or nonorientable two-dimensional surface. Here, we focus on homoclinic flip bifurcations of case B, which is characterized by the fact that the codimension-two point gives rise to an additional homoclinic bifurcation, namely, a two-homoclinic orbit. To explain how the global manifolds organize phase space, we consider Sandstede's three-dimensional vector field model, which features inclination and orbit flip bifurcations. We compute global invariant manifolds and their intersection sets with a suitable sphere, by means of continuation of suitable two-point boundary problems, to understand their role as separatrices of basins of attracting periodic orbits. We show representative images in phase space and on the sphere, such that we can identify topological properties of the manifolds in the different regions of parameter space and at the homoclinic bifurcations involved. We find heteroclinic orbits between saddle periodic orbits and equilibria, which give rise to regions of in finitely many heteroclinic orbits. Additional equilibria exist in Sandstede's model, and we compactify phase space to capture how equilibria may emerge from or escape to in finity. We present images of these bifurcation diagrams, where we outline different configurations of equilibria close to homoclinic flip bifurcations of case B; furthermore, we characterize the dynamics of Sandstede's model at in finity. |
