Saddle-Nodes and Period-Doublings of Smale Horseshoes: a Case Study Near Resonant Homoclinic Bellows
Saddle-nodes and period-doublings of Smale horseshoes: a case study near resonant homoclinic bellows Ale Jan Homburg KdV Institute for Mathematics, University of Amsterdam e-mail: [email protected] Alice C. Jukes Department of Mathematics, Imperial College London email: [email protected] Jurgen¨ Knobloch Department of Mathematics, TU Ilmenau e-mail: [email protected] Jeroen S.W. Lamb Department of Mathematics, Imperial College London email: [email protected] December 17, 2007 Abstract In unfoldings of resonant homoclinic bellows interesting bifurcation phe- nomena occur: two suspensed Smale horseshoes can collide and disappear in saddle-node bifurcations (all periodic orbits disappear through saddle-node bifurcations, there are no other bifurcations of periodic orbits), or a suspended horseshoe can go through saddle-node and period-doubling bifurcations of the periodic orbits in it to create an additional \doubled horseshoe". 1 Introduction In these notes we discuss specific homoclinic bifurcations involving multiple ho- moclinic orbits to a hyperbolic equilibrium with a resonance condition among the eigenvalues of the linearized vector field about the equilibrium; the resonant homo- clinic bellows. A homoclinic bellows consists of two homoclinic orbits γ1(t); γ2(t) to a hyperbolic equilibrium with real leading eigenvalues, that are tangent to each other as t ! ∞. If the homoclinic orbits are symmetry related through the action of a Z2 symmetry, the homoclinic bellows is a bifurcation of codimension one (we review the bifurcation theory in x 2); the additional resonance condition makes it a bifurcation of codimension two. 1 The resonant homoclinic bellows is an organizing center for an interesting bifur- cation phenomenon involving suspended Smale horseshoes (this is our motivation for studying the bifurcation). -
Horse Racing Tack for the Hivewire (HW3D) Horse by Ken Gilliland Horse Racing, the Sport of Kings
Horse Racing Tack for the HiveWire (HW3D) Horse by Ken Gilliland Horse Racing, the Sport of Kings Horse racing is a sport that has a long history, dating as far back as ancient Babylon, Syria, and Egypt. Events in the first Greek Olympics included chariot and mounted horse racing and in ancient Rome, both of these forms of horse racing were major industries. As Thoroughbred racing developed as a sport, it became popular with aristocrats and royalty and as a result achieved the title "Sport of Kings." Today's horse racing is enjoyed throughout the world and uses several breeds of horses including Thoroughbreds and Quarter Horses in the major race track circuit, and Arabians, Paints, Mustangs and Appaloosas on the County Fair circuit. There are four types of horse racing; Flat Track racing, Jump/Steeplechase racing, Endurance racing and Harness racing. “Racehorse Tack” is designed for the most common and popular type of horse racing, Flat Track. Tracks are typically oval in shape and are level. There are exceptions to this; in Great Britain and Ireland there are considerable variations in shape and levelness, and at Santa Anita (in California), there is the famous hillside turf course. Race track surfaces can vary as well with turf being the most common type in Europe and dirt more common in North America and Asia. Newer synthetic surfaces, such as Polytrack or Tapeta, are also seen at some tracks. Individual flat races are run over distances ranging from 440 yards (400 m) up to two and a half miles, with distances between five and twelve furlongs being most common. -

Approved Tack and Equipment for British Dressage Competitions
Approved tack and equipment for British Dressage competitions Eff ective from 17 June 2019 To be used with the corresponding rules in the Members’ Handbook This revised pictorial guide has been devised to be used alongside the British Dressage Members’ Handbook for clarification on permitted tack and equipment. British Dressage endeavours to mirror FEI Rules for permitted tack and equipment. Tack reviews are ongoing but, any additional permitted tack and equipment updates will only be issued twice yearly to coincide with the beginning of the summer and winter seasons (1 December and 18 June). At all BD Championships, there will be an appointed BD Steward(s) in attendance in all warm up arenas responsible for tack and equipment checking every competitor each time they compete. This will be a physical (not just visual) tack check, including nosebands. It’s the organisers’ responsibility to appoint stewards for this function and they must be BD or FEI qualified to the appropriate level, for further guidelines on the official tack check, please see rule 106 in the 2019 Members Handbook. For the complete guidelines on permitted tack and riding the test and penalties, please see section Section 1 of the Members’ Handbook. If the equipment that you are looking at are similar to those pictured, it’s permitted for use in BD competitions. If you have a query on any tack or equipment that you’re unsure about, please email a picture of the item to the Sports Operations Officer for clarification. NB: Please note that bridles without a throatlash will be permitted for use for national competitions, for international competitions please check FEI rules. -

Goat Tips (Updated July 2020)
Goat Tips (Updated July 2020) It is normal for some goats that are hiking loose to stray 10-20 yards back to eat while you travel, they will run to catch up only to stop and nibble a tasty plant and let you get ahead again. They will rarely let you get out of sight though, this eat and run behavior will decrease as the goat tires after a couple of miles and they fill their belly’s. Most goats file in behind in front or alongside you plodding steadily along on the trail at your pace. If you have two or more goats, you will notice that they seem to compete for positions on the trail after they get it worked out remember the hiking order. If you have to tie the goats together in a string tie them in the proper order attaching the carabineer to the back of the SADDLE, NOT the pannier. It will make the difference between an orderly hike and a tangled mess. When a goat stops in front of you to eat and blocks the trail, keep walking and go around his backside the best you can and he will then turn and start walking again just as you pass him, if unable to pass then act like you are and make the same noise like walking in place, or gently pull on his tail with a “let’s go”. Remember if you stop, they all stop. While walking some goats will push you to the side and off the trail just step back and around the back side of the goat to the other side and then he may start pushing you the other way just keep stepping to the other side they just want to be next to you this should stop in a little while. -
