Calculation of coefficients of simplest normal forms of Hopf and generalized Hopf bifurcations

The coefficients of the simplest normal forms of both high-dimensional generalized Hopf and high-dimensional Hopf bifurcation systems were discussed using the adjoint operator method. A particular nonlinear scaling and an inner product were introduced in the space of homogeneous polynomials. Theorems were established for the explicit expression of the simplest normal forms in terms of the coefficients of both the conventional normal forms of Hopf and generalized Hopf bifurcation systems. A symbolic manipulation was designed to perform the calculation of the coefficients of the simplest normal forms using Mathematica. The original ordinary differential equation was required in the input and the simplest normal form could be obtained as the output. Finally, the simplest normal forms of 6-dimensional generalized Hopf singularity of type 2 and 5-dimensional Hopf bifurcation system were discussed by executing the program. The output showed that the 5th- and 9th-order terms remained in 6-dimensional generalized Hopf singularity of type 2 and the 3rd- and 5th-order terms remained in 5-dimensional Hopf bifurcation system.
