Transcritical Bifurcation

A transcritical bifurcation occurs when a stable steady state and an unstable steady state collide and exchange stability as a parameter value is varied. The bifurcation diagram for a transcritical bifurcation shows the steady states intersecting at the bifurcation point. Unfolding a degenerate bifurcation involves perturbing the equation slightly so that the bifurcation diagram changes qualitatively.

A transcritical bifurcation

A transcritical bifurcation occurs when, as you vary a


parameter value, a stable ss and an unstable ss collide, cross
through each other and exchange stability.

Bifurcation diagram

The bifurcation diagram for a transcritical bifurcation:

f(x)

If we perturb the equation a little bit, the diagram changes


qualitatively :
dx
dt
= x(a x)

This is called unfolding a degenerate bifurcation.

Is a fold (saddle-node) bifurcation degenerate? Can it be


unfolded?
