Zero-Hopf bifurcation in the FitzHugh-Nagumo system

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We characterize the values of the parameters for which a zero--Hopf equilibrium point takes place at the singular points, namely, OO (the origin), P+P_+ and P−P_- in the FitzHugh-Nagumo system. Thus we find two 22--parameter families of the FitzHugh-Nagumo system for which the equilibrium point at the origin is a zero-Hopf equilibrium. For these two families we prove the existence of a periodic orbit bifurcating from the zero--Hopf equilibrium point OO. We prove that exist three 22--parameter families of the FitzHugh-Nagumo system for which the equilibrium point at P+P_+ and P−P_- is a zero-Hopf equilibrium point. For one of these families we prove the existence of 11, or 22, or 33 periodic orbits borning at P+P_+ and P−P_-.
