In addition to the classical heterodimensional connection between two periodic orbits, we found two new types of heterodimensional connections: one is a heteroclinic between a periodic orbit of index 2 and a homoclinic loop, and the other connects a periodic orbit of index 3 to the saddle-focus equilibrium.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-04-01T23:13:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37G20", "37G25" ], "keywords": [ "saddle-focus equilibrium", "heterodimensional cycles", "homoclinic bifurcations", "periodic orbit", "homoclinic loop" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 28, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2016arXiv160400431L" } } }
