Stability and Bifurcation Analysis in a Class of Two-Neuron Networks with Resonant Bilinear Terms by Changjin Xu, Xiaofei He

“…It is shown that the zero equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable when the time delay is small enough, while change of stability of the zero equilibrium will cause a bifurcating periodic solution as the time delay passes through a sequence of critical values. Some explicit formulae for determining the stability and the direction of the Hopf bifurcation periodic solutions bifurcating from Hopf bifurcations are obtained by using the normal form theory and center manifold theory. …”

Stoppard’s chaomedic wit by Élisabeth Angel-Perez

“…The Stoppardian new problem play elects complexity as its thesis and conveys a message which is both conservative and iconoclastic: I will examine here, in the wake of other critics, how paradox, which is the foundation stone of Chaos mathematics, shapes all the components of the play—down to Stoppard’s epigrammatic style which, in my opinion, is both Newtonian and chaotic and becomes in turn a metaphor for chaos theory.…”
