Existence and stability of periodic solutions of quasi-linear Korteweg — de Vries equation

[摘要] We consider the scalar nonlinear differential-difference equation with two delays, which models electrical activity of a neuron. Under some additional suppositions for this equation well known method of quasi-normal forms can be applied. Its essence lies in the formal normalization of the Poincare - Dulac obtaining quasi-normal form and the subsequent application of the theorems of conformity. In this case, the result of the application of quasi-normal forms is a countable system of differential-difference equations, which can be turned into a boundary value problem of the Korteweg - de Vries equation. The investigation of this boundary value problem allows us to draw a conclusion about the behaviour of the original equation. Namely, for a suitable choice of parameters in the framework of this equation is implemented buffer phenomenon consisting in the presence of the bifurcation mechanism for the birth of an arbitrarily large number of stable cycles.
