Abstract: In this paper, we propose an equivariant degree based method to study bifurcation of periodic solutions (of constant period) in symmetric networks of reversible FDEs. Such a bifurcation occurs when eigenvalues of linearization move along the imaginary axis (without change of stability of the trivial solution and possibly without 1:k resonance). Physical examples motivating considered settings are related to stationary solutions to PDEs with non-local interaction: reversible mixed delay differential equations (MDDEs) and integro-differential equations (IDEs). In the case of S4-symmetric networks of MDDEs and IDEs, we present exact computations of full equivariant bifurcation invariants. Algorithms and computational procedures used in this paper are also included.


The reversible codimension-one Hopf bifurcation in parameterized ODEs may occur as a result of a collision of eigenvalues of the linearization on the imaginary axis (the so-called \(1:1\) resonance; see [\textit{C. A. Buzzi} and \textit{J. S. W. Lamb}, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 175, No. 1, 39--84 (2005; Zbl 1073.34038); \textit{A. Vanderbauwhede}, Proc. R. Soc. Edinb., Sect. A 116, No. 1--2, 103--128 (1990; Zbl 0719.34072)]). Higher \(1:k\) resonances, related to the case \(i\beta_1=k i\beta_2\; (k\in\mathbb{Z}\) and \(i\beta_1\), \(i\beta_2\) are the eigenvalues at the moment of the bifurcation) were studied in [\textit{V. I. Arnol'd}, ``Reversible systems, in: R. Z. Sagdeev (ed.), Nonlinear and Turbulent Processes in Physics 3, 1161--1174 (1984); \textit{V. I. Arnold} and \textit{M. B. Sevryuk}, ``Oscillations and bifurcations in reversible systems, in: R. Z. Sagdeev (ed.), Nonlinear Phenomena in Plasma Physics and Hydrodynamics, 31--64 (1986)]. The eigenvalues moving along the imaginary axis may give rise to a bifurcation of periodic solutions of constant period even without any resonance. This bifurcation, considered in systems of functional differential equations (FDEs) respecting a finite group of symmetries, is the main subject of the present paper. Results on existence, multiplicity and symmetric properties of bifurcation branches of periodic solutions in symmetric networks of reversible FDEs are obtained. The authors give an illustrative example of such symmetries, the octahedral group \(S_4\), for which the equivariant bifurcation invariant is fully estimated.
