Codimension-two bifurcation

ID: codimension-two-bifurcation

A codimension-two bifurcation requires two independent parameter conditions to hold simultaneously. Simultaneous stationary and Hopf bifurcation thresholds require both kinds of critical mode in the reduced amplitude equation. A crossing of modes at different wavenumbers is different from a zero-frequency double-zero degeneration of one fixed-wave-number cubic.
