Nonlinear dynamics of a three-dimensional discrete-time delay neural network

This paper examines a three-dimensional delayed discrete neural network model analytically and numerically to determine the existence of different types of bifurcations of the involved fixed points. The model exhibits different bifurcations such as pitchforks, flips, Neimark–Sackers, and flip-Neimark–Sackers. The critical coefficients are used to determine the structure of each bifurcation. The curves are calculated and plotted for each bifurcation when the parameters are changed. Further, these bifurcations are theoretically analyzed and numerically verified. From the obtained results, we observed that by drawing the curves associated with each bifurcation, the numerical simulations are consistent with the analytical results.
