Bifurcation without Frechet differentiability at the trivial solution

Charles Stuart

Criteria for the bifurcation of small solutions of an equation F(lambda,u) = 0 from a line {(lambda,0): lambda is an element of R} of trivial solutions are usually based on properties of the DuF(lambda,0) at the trivial solutions, where the partial derivat ...
