Abstract
In the case of a generalized Hopf bifurcation several periodic solutions may branch off from the equilibrium. An elementary procedure is presented for establishing all those bifurcating solutions, as well as their stability behaviour, provided a certain non-degeneracy condition is satisfied.
Zusammenfassung
Im Falle einer verallgemeinerten Hopf-Verzweigung können mehrere periodische Lösungen von der Gleichgewichtslage abzweigen. Es wird ein elementares Verfahren vorgestellt, welches erlaubt, unter einer gewissen Nichtentartungsbedingung diese kleinen periodischen Lösungen sowie ihre Stabilität zu bestimmen.
