摘要

In this paper, a four-neuron delayed system with inertial terms is considered. By studying the distribution of the eigenvalues of the associated characteristic equation, we derive the critical values where double Hopf bifurcation occurs. Then by employing the perturbation-incremental scheme for the system, bifurcation diagrams are obtained. Furthermore, we carry out bifurcation analysis showing that there exist a stable fixed point, two stable periodic solutions, co-existence of a pair of stable periodic solutions and quasi-periodic motion in the neighborhood of the double Hopf critical point. We also find some interesting phenomena that the dynamical period switching occurs in some delayed regions. Finally, some numerical simulations are performed to support the theoretical analysis.
