Bifurcations with spherical symmetry

Bifurcations from spherically symmetric states can occur in many physical and biological systems. These include the development of a spherical ball of cells into an asymmetrical state and the buckling of a sphere under pressure. They also occur in the evolution of reaction–diffusion systems on a sph...
