ppp : Continuation of Hopf Bifurcations.

This demo illustrates the continuation of Hopf bifurcations in a 3-dimensional predator prey model (Do:84 Do:84). This curve contain branch points, where one locus of Hopf points bifurcates from another locus of Hopf points. The equations are

\begin{displaymath}\begin{array}{cl} u_1 ' &= u_1(1-u_1) - p_4 u_1 u_2 , \\ u_2 ...
...{-p_6 u_2}) \\ u_3 ' &= -p_3 u_3 + p_5 u_2 u_3 . \\ \end{array}\end{displaymath} (14.7)

Here $ p_2=1/4$, $ p_3=1/2$, $ p_4=3$, $ p_5=3$, $ p_6=5$, and $ p_1$ is the free parameter. In the continuation of Hopf points the parameter $ p_4$ is also free.
