4-subharmonic bifurcation and homoclinic transition near resonance point in nonlinear parametric oscillator (Q1198373)

The purpose of this paper is to construct near resonance point of order four analytical approximations of the four-subharmonics, the saddle-node bifurcation locus of four-subharmonics, and the homoclinic transition locus of the principal saddle for the Mathieu-type differential equation \(\ddot x+\alpha\dot x+\beta x\dot x+\omega^ 2_ 0(1+h \cos\omega t)x=cx^ 2\). In particular, the author determines the region in the phenomenological parameters space in which the ordinary principal saddle (or non-homoclinic saddle) is in the presence of two asymptotically stable solutions. Unfortunately the paper contains a number of misprints in several key places.
