Simple heteroclinic networks in \(\mathbb R^4\)




Abstract: We classify simple heteroclinic networks for a Gamma-equivariant system in mathbbR4 with finite GammasubsetmO(4), proceeding as follows: we define a graph associated with a given GammasubsetmO(n) and identify all so-called simple graphs associated with subgroups of mO(4). Then, knowing the graph associated with a given Gamma, we determine the types of heteroclinic networks that the group admits. Our study is restricted to networks that are maximal in the sense that they have the highest possible number of connections -- any non-maximal network can then be derived by deleting one or more connections. Finally, for networks of type A, i.e., admitted by GammasubsetmSO(4), we give necessary and sufficient conditions for fragmentary and essential asymptotic stability. (For other simple heteroclinic networks the conditions for stability are known.) The results are illustrated by a numerical example of a simple heteroclinic network that involves two subcycles that can be essentially asymptotically stable simultaneously.
