Hopf bifurcation of a financial dynamical system with delay

Abstract

The aim of this work is to investigate the qualitative behaviour of a financial dynamical system which contains a time delay. We investigate the dynamic response of this system of which variables are interest rate, investment demand, price index and average profit margin. We perform a stability analysis at the fixed points and show that the system undergoes a Hopf bifurcation. The bifurcation analyses are supported by numerical simulations.
