A New Measure of Robust Stablity for Linear Ordinary Impulsive Differential Equations
A new measure of robust stability for linear ordinary impulsive differential equations with periodic structure is introduced, based on the impulse extension concept. This new stability measure reflects the sen...

Linearization and Local Topological Conjugacies for Impulsive Systems
The celebrated Hartman-Grobman theorem for ordinary differential equations states that the phase portrait nearby a hyperbolic equilibrium point of a nonlinear system is equivalent to that of its linearization ...

The Hutchinson Equation with Pulse Harvesting
We prove the existence of a transcritical bifurcation in the pulse-harvested Hutchinson equation. Specifically, we prove the bifurcation with respect to the period of impulse effect. The proof requires a reduc...

Hyperbolicity and the Classical Hierarchy of Invariant Manifolds
We discuss the existence and smoothness of unstable, stable and centre-stable manifolds, thereby establishing the classical hierarchy of invariant manifolds for impulsive functional differential equations.

Chapter
Bifurcations
This chapter presents analogues of the classical codimension-one bifurcations of flows and maps. Specifically, this includes analogues of the fold (saddle-node), period-doubling, and Hopf (Neimark-Sacker) bifu...

Non-smooth Bifurcations
In this chapter we will be interested in bifurcations that result from two “non-smooth” phenomena:
perturbations in the sequence of impulses and

General Linear Systems

Stage-Structured Predator–Prey System with Pulsed Birth
We study bifurcations in a stage-structured predator prey system with pulsed birth. We determine the stability of the extinction equilibrium. Next, we establish the existence and uniqueness of a predator-free ...

Continuous Approximation
In the theory of impulsive dynamical systems, impulses are often interpreted as idealized discrete jumps associated with a process that is continuous in time but occurs on a negligibly small time scale. The in...

Bifurcations in an Impulsively Damped or Driven Pendulum
We study the dynamics resulting from impulsive dam** or driving forces applied to a classical rigid pendulum. The impulse effect adjusts the angular velocity at fixed times based on either a point measuremen...

Dynamics of an In-host Viral Infection Model with Drug Treatment
In this final chapter, we study an in-host viral infection model with impulsive drug treatment. We first restrict to the disease-free subspace and prove the existence of a disease-free periodic solution and a ...

Introduction
Many real-world processes exhibit continuous-time evolution with intermittent bursts of comparatively fast dynamics. In mathematical models of such processes, these bursts of activity are sometimes intrinsic t...
