Chapter Chapter 7 in Topological and Variational Methods with Applications to Nonlinear Boundary Value Problems, 2014, pp 181-200 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter examines the bifurcation points of parametric equations, that is, values of a parameter from which the set of solutions splits into several branches. The deep connection between bifurcation points and the spectrum of linear operators involved in problems is pointed out. The presentation consists of two parts regarding the used approach: degree theory and implicit function theorem. In the latter, the theory of Fredholm operators is utilized in conjunction with the Lyapunov–Schmidt reduction method. Applications to ordinary differential equations are given. The proofs of the results presented in the chapter are complete, and novel ideas are incorporated. The basic references are mentioned in a remarks section.
