Hopf Bifurcation Analysis for the van der Pol Equation with Discrete and Distributed Delays
We consider the van der Pol equation with discrete and distributed delays. Linear stability of this equation is investigated by analyzing the transcendental characteristic equation of its linearized equation. It is found that this equation undergoes a sequence of Hopf bifurcations by choosing the di...
