Reflection-preserving splitting of a dihedral Hopf bifurcation

If only reflection and common temporal phase remain, the linear complex matrix is $\left(\begin{array}{cc}\alpha & \eta \\ \eta & \alpha \end{array}\right)$. The symmetric and antisymmetric modes have eigenvalues $\alpha +\eta$ and $\alpha -\eta$, generically separating their Hopf thresholds. One-component rotating-wave axes are no longer invariant. Their hyperbolic finite-amplitude periodic solutions can persist as mixed-mode solutions, often through secondary symmetry-breaking bifurcations, while the double primary onset splits into two simple Hopf onsets. Coefficients determine the detailed secondary diagram and stability.
