On the dynamics near a homoclinic network to a bifocus: switching and horseshoes
S Ibánez, A Rodrigues - International Journal of Bifurcation and …, 2015 - World Scientific
We study a homoclinic network associated to a nonresonant hyperbolic bifocus. It is proved
that on combining rotation with a nondegeneracy condition concerning the intersection of …
