Abstract
The second-order predictor for the homoclinic orbit is applied to the Gray–Scott model. The problem is used to illustrate the approximation of the homoclinic orbits near a generic Bogdanov–Takens bifurcation in n-dimensional systems of differential equations. In the process, we show that it is necessary to take (usually ignored) cubic terms in the Bogdanov–Takens normal form into account to derive a correct second-order prediction for the homoclinic bifurcation curve. The analytic solutions are compared with those obtained by numerical continuation.
