Popis: We study the dynamics near a symmetric Hopf-zero (also known as saddle-node Hopf or fold-Hopf) bifurcation in a reversible vector field in R3, with involutory an reversing symmetry whose fixed point subspace is one-dimensional. We focus on the case in which the normal form for this bifurcation displays a degenerate family of heteroclinics between two asymmetric saddle-foci. We study local perturbations of this degenerate family of heteroclinics within the class of reversible vector fields and establish the generic existence of hyperbolic basic sets (horseshoes), independent of the eigenvalues of the saddle-foci, as well as cascades of bifurcations of periodic, heteroclinic and homoclinic orbits.Finally, we discuss the application of our results to the Michelson system, describing stationary states and travelling waves of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky PDE.
