REVIEW OF BIFURCATION PROBLEMS AND NUMERICAL METHODS FOR THEM

This paper reviews the book Bifurcation Problems and Numerical Methods for them by Professors Wu Jike and Huang Kefu. This book introduces the common bifurcation problems in life, and summarizes various bifurcation problems and their research progress. The prominent characteristics of the book are based on equivalence class definition of bifurcation, thus the stability of power system, local and global bifurcation, the static bifurcation and Hopf bifurcation problems are discussed in-depth, and then the effectiveness of numerical method represented by arc length method in solving bifurcation problems is introduced in detail. This book is a reference book worthy of study by relevant researchers.
