Resumo(s)
In this paper, we study the dynamics and bifurcation properties of a three-parameter family
of 1D Gompertz’s growth functions, which are defined by the population size functions of the
Gompertz logistic growth equation. The dynamical behavior is complex leading to a diversified
bifurcation structure, leading to the big bang bifurcations of the so-called “box-within-a-box”
fractal type. We provide and discuss sufficient conditions for the existence of these bifurcation
cascades for 1D Gompertz’s growth functions. Moreover, this work concerns the description
of some bifurcation properties of a Hénon’s map type embedding: a “continuous” embedding
of 1D Gompertz’s growth functions into a 2D diffeomorphism. More particularly, properties
that characterize the big bang bifurcations are considered in relation with this coupling of two
population size functions, varying the embedding parameter. The existence of communication
areas of crossroad area type or swallowtails are identified for this 2D diffeomorphism.
