This article is concerned with the dynamics of glacial cycles observed in the geological record of the Pleistocene Epoch. It focuses on a conceptual model proposed by Maasch and Saltzman [J. Geophys. Res.,95, D2 (1990), pp. 1955-1963], which is based on physical arguments and emphasizes the role of atmospheric CO2 in the generation and persistence of periodic orbits (limit cycles). The model consists of three ordinary differential equations with four parameters for the anomalies of the total global ice mass, the atmospheric CO2 concentration, and the volume of the North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW). In this article, it is shown that a simplified two-dimensional symmetric version displays many of the essential features of the full model, including equilibrium states, limit cycles, their basic bifurcations, and a Bogdanov-Takens point that serves as an organizing center for the local and global dynamics. Also, symmetry breaking splits the Bogdanov-Takens point into two, with different local dynamics in their neighborhoods.

We study ultrametric germs in one variable having an irrationally indifferent fixed point at the origin with a prescribed multiplier. We show that for many values of the multiplier, the cycles in the unit disk of the corresponding monic quadratic pol ynomial are optimal in the following sense: They minimize the distance to the origin among cycles of the same minimal period of normalized germs having an irrationally indifferent fixed point at the origin with the same multiplier. We also give examples of multipliers for which the corresponding quadratic polynomial does not have optimal cycles. In those cases we exhibit a higher degree polynomial such that all of its cycles are optimal. The proof of these results reveals a connection between the geometric location of periodic points of ultrametric power series and the lower ramification numbers of wildly ramified field automorphisms. We also give an extension of Sens theorem on wildly ramified field automorphisms, and a characterization of minimally ramified power series in terms of the iterative residue.
We prove that a periodic orbit $P$ with coprime over-rotation pair is an over-twist periodic orbit iff the $P$-linear map has the over-rotation interval with left endpoint equal to the over-rotation number of $P$. We then show that this result fails if the over-rotation pair of $P$ is not coprime. Examples of patterns with non-coprime over-rotation pairs are given so that these patterns have no block structure over over-twists but have over-rotation number equal to the left endpoint of the forced over-rotation interval (such patterns are called emph{very badly ordered}). This presents a situation in which the results about over-rotation numbers on the interval and those about classical rotation numbers for circle degree one maps are different. In the end we elucidate a rigorous description of the strongest unimodal pattern that corresponds to a given over-rotation interval and use it to construct unimodal very badly ordered patterns with arbitrary non-coprime over-rotation pair.
In this paper, we extend the slow divergence-integral from slow-fast systems, due to De Maesschalck, Dumortier and Roussarie, to smooth systems that limit onto piecewise smooth ones as $epsilonrightarrow 0$. In slow-fast systems, the slow divergence- integral is an integral of the divergence along a canard cycle with respect to the slow time and it has proven very useful in obtaining good lower and upper bounds of limit cycles in planar polynomial systems. In this paper, our slow divergence-integral is based upon integration along a generalized canard cycle for a piecewise smooth two-fold bifurcation (of type visible-invisible called $VI_3$). We use this framework to show that the number of limit cycles in regularized piecewise smooth polynomial systems is unbounded.
We consider an independently identically distributed random dynamical system generated by finitely many, non-uniformly expanding Markov interval maps with a finite number of branches. Assuming a topologically mixing condition and the uniqueness of th e equilibrium state of product form, we establish an almost-sure weighted equidistribution of cycles with respect to a natural stationary measure, as the periods of the cycles tend to infinity. This result is an analogue of Bowens theorem on periodic orbits of topologically mixing Axiom A diffeomorphisms in random setup. We also prove averaging results over all samples, as well as another samplewise result. We apply our result to the random $beta$-expansion of real numbers, and obtain a new formula for the mean relative frequencies of digits in the series expansion.
We obtain condition for existence of a center for a cubic planar differential system, which can be considered as a polynomial subfamily of the generalized Riccati system. We also investigate bifurcations of small limit cycles from the components of the center variety of the system.
