Abstract

Along two-dimensional equilibrium manifolds, we expect transcritical points, Chap. 4, to form one-dimensional curves, by the implicit-function theorem. At isolated points, one of the non-degeneracy conditions (4.8, 4.9) may fail and codimension-two singularities appear. We shall discuss these degeneracies, first in a one-parameter-family of lines of equilibria and then along a two-dimensional equilibrium surface.
