 Rotating-frame normalization of resonant amplitude forcing

For the three-to-one spatially forced amplitude equation with forcing $e\exp [3i(\Omega T+\delta )]$, put $A=B\exp [i(\Omega T+\delta )]$. The real phase constant $\delta$ belongs inside the factor of $i$. If $c>0$ and the phase has been chosen so that $e>0$, the scaling $B=(e/c)C$, $\mathcal{T}=(e^2/c)T$ gives the displayed canonical amplitude equation, with $\mu =c\tilde{\mu }/e^2$ and $\omega =c\Omega /e^2$. A negative cubic saturation coefficient cannot give the same cubic sign under a forward-time normalization; zero forcing or zero cubic coefficient requires another scaling.
