Abstract
In Chapter 3 we dealt with the local bifurcation properties of equilibrium points and periodic orbits. The theory developed there relied upon coordinate transformations which bring general systems into normal forms, from which dynamical information can be deduced from the Taylor series of a vector field or map at a single point.
