 Solution

There are two bifurcations in $0\le k\le 1/2$, both at $k=0$.

Near $(0,0,0)$, append $\dot{k}=0$. The plane $y=0$ is invariant and tangent to the extended center subspace, so it is an extended center manifold. The reduced equation is exactlyIts leading terms $-kx-3x^2$ have two branches, $x=0$ and $x=-k/3+O(k^2)$, which cross and exchange their center-direction stability. Hence this is a transcritical bifurcation.

For the bifurcation at $(1,2,0)$, setThe extended system becomesSolving the centre-manifold invariance equation for $v=h(X,k)$ givesSubstitution into the $X$ equation yieldsFor $k>0$ this has two nearby equilibria $X=\pm \sqrt{k}+O(k)$, while for $k<0$ it has none. It is therefore a saddle-node bifurcation. These reductions are collected in bifurcations of the 2022 Cambridge quadratic-cubic system.
