Global and Local Structures of Bifurcation Curves of ODE with Nonlinear Diffusion by Tetsutaro Shibata

“…This equation is related to the mathematical model of animal dispersal and invasion, and λ is parameterized by the maximum norm α=uλ∞ of the solution uλ associated with λ and is written as λ=λ(α). Since f(u) contains both power nonlinear term u2n-k-1 and oscillatory term sin⁡u, it seems interesting to investigate how the shape of λ(α) is affected by f(u). …”
