Existence of a Reversible T-Point Heteroclinic Cycle in a Piecewise Linear Version of the Michelson System

Abstract: Abstract. The proof of the existence of a global connection in differential systems is generally a difficult task. Some authors use numerical techniques to show this existence, even in the case of continuous piecewise linear systems. In this paper we give an analytical proof of the existence of a reversible T-point heteroclinic cycle in a continuous piecewise linear version of the widely studied Michelson system. The principal ideas of this proof can be extended to other piecewise linear systems.

“…In addition to this, BPAS turns out to be an appropriate tool to understand nonlinear phenomena. For instance, BPAS version of the well known traveling wave equation model of Michelson System [11], the Wien-bridge oscillator of [12], a biological network model by Imura et al [13], are examples of nonlinear systems modeled as BPAS.…”

“…In fact, a simple linear change of variables followed by the change of function x 2 → |x| allows to obtain system (2) from system (1), see [3]. Moreover, both systems are volume-preserving and time-reversible with respect to the involution R(x, y, z) = (−x, y, −z).…”
