Abstract

The global behavior of solutions is described for the smallest chemical reaction system that exhibits a Hopf bifurcation, discovered in [12]. This three-dimensional system is a competitive system and a monotone cyclic feedback system. The Poincaré-Bendixson theory extends to such systems [2,3,6,8] and a Bendixson criterion exists to rule out periodic orbits [4].
